** AIMS:
Cloud computing allows application software to be operated using internet-enabled devices. Clouds themselves are dynamic networks of common, off-the-shell computers to build computation farms with dynamic scalability features to process even big data if necessary. Ubiquitous computing is related to the ability to perform computing tasks on any type of devices (including mobile devices, sensors, smart electronic devices). Masses of devices generate masses of data to be processed somewhere - typically on themselves locally or in cooperation, or in the cloud. Cloud and ubiquitous computing have further commonalities: e.g. they enable computing anywhere; they make computing invisible and transparent; they are network-distributed computing. The goal of this special issue is to bring together contributions from these communities to address the challenges and report the research findings in Cloud computing and Ubiquitous Computing, and in their cooperation. We welcome papers demonstrating how new technologies of Cloud Computing and Ubiquitous Computing complete each other. Of course, we are also interested in the research findings with focus on any of the two fields.
