================================================================================
| Call for Papers
| 1st International Workshop on
| Optimization techniques for Resources Management in Clouds (ORMaCloud)
| co-located with the 22nd ACM Symposium on
| High-Performance Parallel and Distributed Computing (HPDC)
|
| Website: http://ormacloud.isti.cnr.it
|
| New York, United States of America
| June 17th/18th (TBD), 2013
================================================================================
Workshop Context
================
The Cloud Computing paradigm is gaining an increasing degree of popularity
and interest both in the industrial and in the scientific community,
allowing
customers to outsource the management of physical resources, and to rent a
variable amount of resources according to their actual needs, in a
pay-per-use
fashion. In order to hide to customers the details of physical resources
and to
provide a flexible and efficient environment to users, Cloud Resource
Management
(acronym CloudRM) targets a multitude of constraints and objectives,
with the
burden of optimizing physical resource usage to ensure feasible business
model
placed entirely on Cloud providers. Due to the typical scale of Cloud
systems,
these goals are achieved mainly by infrastructures characterized by a high
degree of automation. Such infrastructures allow resource provisioning
and dynamic management of compute, storage and network resources. The
ORMaCloud
workshop will focus on management and optimization issues related to
dependability, scalability, economicity and performance at each level of
cloud
computing infrastructures, but also on green computing concerns, i.e.
issues
related with energy efficiency and carbon footprint limitation. The
workshop aims at providing a venue for investigating and discussing
these issues and state of the art techniques to solve them from a
number of different viewpoints.
Like:
- Different Cloud Platforms: single-tenant Clouds, Cloud brokering
platforms,
Cloud Federations;
- Features required by Scientific, Real-time, 24/7, and Big Data
Applications,
as well as other classes of Applications;
- CloudRM and advanced QoS management for performance, networking, power
efficiency, security, reliability;
- Unified programming models and impact of the IaaS/PaaS interaction on
CloudRM;
- Supporting techniques and methodologies for CloudRM: resource mapping and
scheduling, autonomic management, service monitoring and modeling;
- Interplay of CloudRM and Cloud business models;
The Topics of Interest
======================
According to the above description, the topics of interest for the workshop
include but are not limited to:
- Optimization Algorithms for CloudRM in Clouds, Cloud Brokers and
Cloud Federations
- CloudRM solutions targeting specific classes of applications including
Scientific, Real-time, 24/7, and Big Data Applications
- Design of energy efficient Cloud IaaS software stacks and middlewares
- Design of QoS aware Cloud IaaS software stacks and middlewares
- Computing models for PaaS in Clouds allowing advanced CloudRM: QoS-,
Green-
and Security-aware
- Abstractions for new types of resource: CloudRM of multicore CPUs and
GPUs
- Autonomic approaches to CloudRM
- Multi-criteria Scheduling for CloudRM
- Advanced monitoring solutions for CloudRM
- Benchmarks for CloudRM evaluation
- CloudRM impacts on Cloud business models

Paper Submission guidelines
===========================
Authors are invited to submit technical papers of at most 8 pages in PDF
format,
including figures and references. Papers should be formatted in the ACM
Proceedings Style and submitted to EasyChair whoso URL will be reported
in the
workshop Web-site. No changes to the margins, spacing, or font sizes as
specified by the style file are allowed.
Accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings, and will be
incorporated into the ACM Digital Library. Papers must be self-contained
and
provide the technical substance required for the program committee to
evaluate
their contributions. Papers should thoughtfully address all related work.
Submitted papers must be original work that has not appeared in and is not
under consideration for another conference or a journal. See the ACM Prior
Publication Policy for more details.
