CALL FOR PAPERS

3rd IEEE International Conference on
Cloud Computing Technology and Science
(IEEE CloudCom 2011)

Athens, Greece
Nov 29 - Dec 1, 2011

Technically sponsored by Open Grid Forum.

The "Cloud" is a natural evolution of distributed computing and of the widespread
adaption of virtualization and SOA. In Cloud Computing, IT-related capabilities and
resources are provided as services, via the Internet and on-demand,
accessible without requiring detailed knowledge of the underlying technology.
The IEEE International Conference and Workshops on Cloud Computing Technology and Science,
steered by the Cloud Computing Association, aim to bring together researchers who work
on cloud computing and related technologies.

Topics include but are not limited to:
Architecture;
Service models (SaaS/ PaaS/ IaaS);
Provisioning models; Standards and Interoperability;
High-performance and optical networks;
SOA and Web services;
Virtualization technologies;
Scalable Fault Resilience Techniques;
Autonomic Computing;
Data Grid and Semantic web;
Data Services Architectures;
Scientific Data Management;
