SOCC 2013 - The ACM Symposium on Cloud Computing 2013

The ACM Symposium on Cloud Computing 2013 (ACM SoCC 2013) will be the fourth in a new series of symposia that brings together researchers, developers, users, and practitioners interested in cloud computing. ACM SoCC is the premier conference on cloud computing; it is the only conference co-sponsored by the ACM Special Interest Groups on Management of Data (SIGMOD) and on Operating Systems (SIGOPS). As last year, in 2013 SoCC will be held in Silicon Valley.
The scope of SoCC is broad and encompasses diverse systems topics such as software as a service, virtualization, and scalable cloud data services. Many facets of systems and data management issues must be revisited in the context of cloud computing. Suggested topics for paper submissions include but are not limited to:
Administration and Manageability
Data Privacy
Data Services Architectures
Distributed and Parallel Query Processing
Energy Management
Distributed and Cloud Networking
High Availability and Reliability
