CALL FOR PAPERS

IEEE Fourth International Workshop on Cloud Computing
Interclouds, Multiclouds, Federations, and Interoperability
(Intercloud 2015)
Tempe, Arizona, USA, March 9 – 13, 2015

Deadline 7 December 2014 (to be extended until 21 Dec 2014)

in conjunction with
the IEEE International Conference on Cloud Engineering (IC2E 2015)

Advances in processing, communication and systems/middleware
technologies have led us to new paradigms and platforms for computing –
in the form of Cloud Computing That in its own turn creates a basis for
the Big Data and Data intensive technologies. Cloud Computing from Cloud
Service Providers is a burgeoning market with a wide variety to choose
from, including some of the most notable names in Internet and IT today.
Cloud Computing is the go-to platform now for datacenter architecture,
scalable application hosting, new application development, and mobile
app platform. While cloud Computing enjoys a certain amount of
application – or application architecture – portability, there are not
really any interoperability standards or common practices in place.
Security, SLA, and other concerns are still active areas of interest.
Also, while Cloud Computing is different from Grid Computing, there is
some Federation and Interoperability in the Grid community, are these
appropriate to the Cloud Computing space. It is widely believed that the
whole space of Clouds, Grids, and the Intercloud will federate and
eventually converge. Looking even further backwards, there are lessons
to be learned from the early Internet work as well as Mobile Telephony.
Looking forwards, Cloud Federation Management as well as SDN are both
key to making this happen. This workshop aims at providing a forum to
bring together researchers for sharing and exchanging Cloud computing
related research, technologies, experience, and lessons for building
Clouds with Intercloud, Multicloud, Federation, and Interoperability
capabilities, standards, services, and management techniques.

Topics of interest include:

* Theory, frameworks, methodologies, architecture for Interclouds,
    Multiclouds, Federations, and Interoperability
* Cloud Federation and Interoperability Protocols
* Cloud Federation Management
* Trust, Security, Identity for Interclouds, Multiclouds,
    Federations, and Interoperability
* Virtual Private Cloud, IP-SEC, MPLS techniques for Domain Management
* Grid Federation and Interoperability Protocols, Lessons Learned,
    As Applied to Clouds
* Experimental Results of Distributed/Multiple Datacenter Cloud
    Coordination and Interoperability
* Theory or Experimental Results of SDN used for Federations, and
    Interoperability
* Semantic Web Services Definitions for Clouds Resources and Management
* Using Big Data techniques to solve Federation Constraint based
    Resource Matching
* Mobile Roaming applications for for Interclouds, Multiclouds,
    Federations, and Interoperability
* Cloud and Grid Federation governance and regulatory issues
* Traffic and load balancing across Federated and Interoperable Clouds
* QoS/SLA in Federated and Interoperable Clouds
* PaaS for Interclouds, Multiclouds, Federations, and Interoperability
* Interoperable cloud based infrastructures for Big Data applications
* Management operations, discovery, configuration, provisioning
* Geo-balancing for Interclouds, Multiclouds, Federations, and
    Interoperability
* Compliance, Reference Definitions and Semantics, for Interclouds,
    Multiclouds, Federations, and Interoperability
* Testbeds for Interclouds, Multiclouds, Federations, and
    Interoperability

PAPER SUBMISSION

Manuscripts should be prepared in 10-point font using the IEEE 8.5" x
11" two-column format. The full manuscript should be at most 7 pages.
All papers should be in PDF.

http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=intercloud2015

A paper submitted cannot be under review for any other conference or
journal during the entire time it is considered, and it must be
substantially different from any previously published work. All
submissions are peer-reviewed. The IEEE Computer Society Conference
Publishing Services will publish accepted papers. Each paper will
receive a minimum of three reviews.  Papers will be selected based on
their originality, relevance, technical clarity and presentation.
Authors of accepted papers must guarantee that their papers will be
registered and presented at the workshop.  If you have any questions
about paper submission or the workshop, please contact the organizer.

IMPORTANT DATES

Papers due: Sunday December 7th, 2014 AOE
Notification of Acceptance: January 19th, 2015
Camera ready paper due: February 1st, 2015
