=============================
Third Workshop on
Management of Cloud Systems (MoCS 2013)
(http://mocs.disi.unibo.it)
July 7th, 2013
Split, Croatia
organized in association with the
Eighteenth IEEE Symposium on Computers and Communications (ISCC 2013)
(http://www.ieee-iscc.org/)
Sponsored by (pending approval):
IEEE Computer Society and IEEE Communications Society
Endorsed by:
IEEE Technical Committee on Communications Systems Integration and
Modeling (CSIM)
In cooperation with:
IEEE Technical SubCommittee on Green Communications and Computing
(TSCGCC)
The vision of Cloud computing is becoming a reality thanks to the recent
advances in several significant computer and communications research
areas, spanning from grid/virtualization/utility computing to Web 2.0
and Service Oriented Computing (SOC). After the initial hype, at the
current stage, several ongoing research efforts are focusing on the
several open management aspects of the Cloud, such as interoperability,
scalability, reliability, power management, and
confidentiality/auditability, with the final goal to make Cloud
technologies and services more mature so to boost and to facilitate a
more widespread industrial uptake of Cloud systems. Despite the several
recent efforts on Cloud systems, it is still unclear whether current
solutions are able to withstand the abrupt and unpredictably changes
imposed by the emergent Cloud application scenarios, where services and
the whole software stacks (from the kernel upward) have to scale up and
down fast by exploiting highly distributed and heterogeneous virtualized
resources.
The ambition and mission of MoCS 2013 is to put on the foreground all
above issues, and to bring together different ongoing research efforts
on the management of Cloud systems. This year, special focus will be on
the challenging management issues related to the delivery of efficient
Green solutions for the processing of real-world Big Data knowledge base
and streams over the Cloud.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following:
* Novel adaptive management solutions for scalable, maintainable,
cost-effective Cloud provision, at all software stack layers;
* New models and paradigms for the management of Cloud services at the
host level and within/between data centres (intra-/inter-domain);
* Analytical and simulation models and tools to measure systems ability
to scale and to achieve relevant energy savings;
* New methods and tools able to identify and enforce optimal trade-offs
between performance, energy consumption, safety, and security;
* Emerging standards for interoperability (resource virtualization,
specific computing interfaces, etc.), also between public and private
Clouds;
* Experimentation testbeds, field trials and empirical evaluations, and
measurement studies.
