IGCC 2010 - 2010 International Workshop on Intelligent Grid and Cloud Computing (IGCC2010)

Grid and cloud computing have been one of most popular research topics in recent year. They earn increasingly attention because they can connect various geographically distributed and heterogeneous resources and services into a single computing platform. Users can transparently access the resources/services without taking care about how many services the platform has and where the services will be located. Cloud computing can be seen as a natural next step from the grid-utility model. Some advanced technologies and issues are necessary to be investigated, such as platform, hybrid cloud architecture, service discovery and intelligent management, workflow, QoS issue, green issue, cost-model, and so on, to provide transparent, secure, and efficient service access behind the platform. In addition, a well-defined model and effective economics are useful for coordinating services/resources scattered world-wide. A variety of valuable achievements and implementation experiences will drive sustained development and success in the topic.
This workshop aims to foster state-of-the-art research in the area of grid and cloud computing and is expected to focus on all aspects of cloud technologies and to present novel results and solutions to solve the various problems and challenges in grid and cloud platforms. The target audience of this workshop includes academics, researchers, engineers, professionals working on the relevant topics in design profession, manufacturing engineering, industrial engineering, computer science, information system, and the graduate students who wish to learn and spot potential research opportunities.
