(SPCLOUD 2011)

Call for Papers

As part of
The 2011 International Conference on High Performance Computing & Simulation
(HPCS 2011)

http://hpcs11.cisedu.info/

In Conjunction With
The International Wireless Communications and Mobile Computing Conference 
(IWCMC 2011)

July 4 – 8, 2011
Istanbul, Turkey

(Submission Deadline: January 11, 2011)


SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES
Cloud computing systems open a new perspective on almost every aspect of 
computing.  Some security issues raised by cloud computing are alleviated by 
virtualization but the performance overheads should be balanced against this 
advantage.  Dynamic scalability or “elasticity” will help generalize 
high-performance computing and very large data sets in applications.   But the 
actual gains in performance depend heavily on the predictability of physical 
and virtualized resources.  Consequently, the balancing of performance against 
security and the adaptation of HPC or VLDB techniques to cloud computing are of 
strategic importance and will have long-lasting scientific content. 

The SPCLOUD workshop will bring together researchers and IT practitioners to 
present new results and ongoing work on the themes of security and performance 
in the cloud. 

The Workshop topics include (but are not limited to) the following:

    * Reliability and Security of Cloud Environments
    * Monitoring for Cloud-Based Applications
    * Cryptography and Crypto-Protocols for Cloud Computing Systems
    * Parallel Computing With Cloud-Based Systems
    * Very Large Databases In The Cloud:  Transactions, Backup, Security, 
Scalability
    * Security and Virtualization.  Insiders Threats
    * Risk Management in Cloud Computing Environments
    * Usability and Human Centered Security for Clouds
    * Trusted Data Sharing and Shared Technology Issues
    * Untrusted Cloud Servers and Networks
    * Privacy Protection in Cloud Platforms and Operations
    * Autonomic Security in Cloud Computing
    * Intercloud Security Issues and Considerations
    * Insecure Interfaces and APIs
    * Security Models for New Services
    * Services Hijacking
    * Interoperable Identity Management
    * Information Hiding in Cloud Computing
    * Forensics in the Clouds
    * Cloud Infrastructure Security

SPCLOUD welcomes submission of papers describing:

    * Experimental work to measure existing systems and applications
    * Industrial experience relevant to the Workshop’s themes
    * Theoretical work on specific new models
    * Software and hardware platforms from the angle of security and performance
    * Short papers describing ongoing work. 


PAPER SUBMISSIONS
Submitted papers must not have been published or simultaneously submitted 
elsewhere.  Submission should include a cover page with authors' names, 
affiliation addresses, fax numbers, phone numbers, and email addresses.  
Please, indicate clearly the corresponding author and include up to 6 keywords 
from the above list of topics and an abstract of no more than 450 words.  The 
full manuscript should be at most 7 pages using the two-column IEEE format.  
Additional pages will be charged at additional fee.  Please include page 
numbers on all preliminary submissions to make it easier for reviewers to 
provide helpful comments.  Submit a PDF copy of your full manuscript via email 
to the Workshop organizers at gaetan.ha...@u-pec.fr and khmelev...@acm.org. 

Only PDF files will be accepted.  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.  Accepted 
papers will be published in the conference proceedings which will be made 
available at the time of the meeting. 

If you have any questions about paper submission or the Workshop, please 
contact the organizers.
