InterCloud-HPC 2019 - International Symposium on Cloud Computing and Services for High Performance Computing Systems (InterCloud-HPC 2019)

Cloud Computing has now become the prevalent paradigm for powering modern IT systems and data-intensive scientific applications. The success of the cloud is, in large parts, due to its ease of access through the Internet, its ability to hide hardware deployment and maintenance, and its elasticity that makes applications reach Internet scale easier than ever before.
This symposium focuses on techniques, experiences, applications, and lessons learned for interoperable services in the cloud, particularly in the realms of high performance computing. For instance, HPC may be used for the construction of mathematical models and numerical solutions and techniques for solving scientific, socio-scientific and engineering problems. It often requires a huge number of computing and storage resources to perform large-scale analyses and experiments. Users could get access to their own virtualized HPC cluster in a self-service, dynamically scalable and fully configurable environment. Cloud computing can address many of the aforementioned concerns. Such a computing paradigm shift provides a flexible high performance computing environment.
The symposium aims at providing a forum to bring together researchers and scientists to share and exchange cloud computing related research, technologies, experiences, and lessons for building various types clouds with interoperability and coordination capabilities in a high performance and high availability setting.
