The 2012 International Workshop on 
Cloud and Grid Interoperability (Cloud&Grid 2012) 

http://web.ftrai.org/cloudgrid2012 (TBA) 

Gwangju, Korea, 6-8 September 2012 

In conjunction with NPC-12 
http://www.ftrai.org/npc2012/ 


"Cloud" is a common metaphor for an Internet accessible infrastructure,
hiding most of the implementation and deployment details in the field of
ICT. Cloud Computing is becoming a scalable services delivery and
consumption platform. The backbone behind Cloud Computing includes
Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) and Virtualization of hardware and
software. 
The goal of Cloud Computing is to share resources among the cloud
service consumers, cloud partners and cloud vendors in the cloud value
chain. Cloud computing has been envisaged to be one of the main stream
powering technologies of future ICT and next generation network. 
The Cloud&Grid 2012 focus on Interoperability issues of grid and
computing domain. It mainly focus on designing interoperable components,
experiences and lessons learnt from developing interoperable services in
the cloud and grid environment. This workshop aims at providing a forum
to bring together researchers for sharing and exchanging cloud and Grid
computing related research, technologies, experience, and lessons for
building clouds of interoperability and coordination capabilities and
services. 
We believe this workshop will be a place to help the research community
to define their novel ideas in the current state of grid-cloud
interoperability issues. In addition the workshop will help to define
the future goals and services that cloud needs to support in various
intensive commercial and enterprise application

There will be a combination of presentations including scientific
papers. 
Prospective authors are invited, in the first instance, to submit papers
for oral presentations in any of the areas of interest for this
workshop. 

Papers must strictly adhere to page limits as follows. 
- Full Paper: 8 pages (Max 2 extra pages allowed at additional cost) 
- Regular Paper: 6 pages (Max 2 extra pages allowed at additional cost) 
- Poster Paper: 2 pages (FTRA Publishing Proceeding with ISBN)

CLOUD&GRID 2012 submission should be made by system to
http://www.editorialsystem.net/cloudgrid2012 

Instructions for papers in the Springer's CCIS?Note that the paper
format of CCIS is the same as that of LNCS? 
- Prepare your paper in the exact format as the sample paper for CCIS.
Failure to do so may result in the exclusion of your paper from the
proceedings. Please read the authors' instructions carefully before
preparing your papers. 
- Springer accepts both Microsoft Word and LaTex format in the Lecture
Note Series. However, FTRA does not accept the use of LaTex. Therefore,
you should use the Microsoft Word instead of using LaTex (The paper will
be excluded from the proceeding if you use LaTex). Springer provides the
relevant templates and sample files for both PC (sv-lncs.dot) and Mac
(sv-lncs) environments. 
- Please download word.zip
(http://www.springer.com/cda/content/document/cda_downloaddocument/word.zip?SGWID=0-0-45-72919-0). If you need more help on preparing your papers, please visit Springer's LNCS web page (http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-2-72376-0). 

Distinguished papers accepted and presented in Cloud&Grid 2012, after
further revisions, will be published in the special issues of the
following international journals: 
- The Journal of Supercomputing (JoS) - Springer (SCI) 
- Cluster Computing (CC) - Springer (SCI-E) 
- Human-centric Computing and Information Science (HCIS) - Springer
(Open Access) 
- International Journal of Information Technology, Communications and
Convergence (IJITCC) - Inderscience 
- Journal of Convergence (JoC) - FTRA Publishing
