ACC 2012 - International Conference on Advances in Cloud Computing (ACC-2012)

Cloud computing assembles large networks of virtualized services: hardware resources (CPU, storage, and network) and software resources (e.g., databases, message queuing systems, monitoring systems, load-balancers). Cloud providers give organizations the option to deploy their application over a network of infinite resource pool with practically no capital investment and with modest operating cost proportional to the actual use. It is believed that the new wave of computing will be based on Cloud Computing. Considering the importance of Cloud Computing in the days to come, Computer Society of India, the largest body of IT professionals in the country is launching the conference series on Advances in Cloud Computing (ACC) to provide an international forum for researchers,professionals, and industrial practitioners to share their knowledge in the rapidly growing area of Cloud Computing.
The first edition will be held in Bangalore in July 2012.
The conference will have both Invited and Contributed papers on different aspects of Cloud Computing.

Researchers are invited to submit full research papers to the ACC 2012 on topics of interests which include but not limited to:
Approaches for Migrating Enterprise and Scientific Applications to Clouds
Application Architectures
Resource Orchestration
Application Workload Modeling
Application Auto-scaling Modeling
Scalable Models for Application Health Monitoring
Energy-efficiency Models for Provisioning Hardware Resources
