*** Call for Extended Abstracts ***
The 3rd Workshop on Cloud Computing and its Applications (CCA) 2011
In conjunction with GlobusWorld 2011, April 12th-13th, Argonne, Illinois
http://www.cca11.org/
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dramatic growth in data and equally rapid decline in the cost of highly
integrated clusters has spurred the emergence of the data center as the platform
of choice for a growing class of data-intensive applications. To encourage
conversations between those developing applications, algorithms, software, and
hardware for such "cloud" platforms, we are convening the third workshop on
Cloud
Computing and Its Applications (CCA11).
CCA11 will provide reception and poster session on April 12th (Call for Extended
Abstract - due March 22nd), as well as a full day of distinguished invited talks
on April 13th on cloud computing, data intensive scalable computing, and related
topics (see program at http://cca11.org/agenda/). CCA11 will be held at Argonne
National Laboratory (Bldg. 240 ConferenceCenter) in Argonne Illinois, just 25
miles west of Chicago, Illinois.
EXTENDED ABSTRACT TOPICS
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* compute and storage cloud architectures and implementations
* map-reduce and its generalizations
* programming models and tools
* novel data-intensive computing applications
* data intensive scalable computing
* distributed data intensive computing
* content distribution systems for large data
* data management within and across data centers
* models, frameworks and systems for cloud security
IMPORTANT DATES
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Extended Abstract submission: March15th 22nd, 2011
Acceptance notification: March 29th, 2011
Final extended abstracts due: April 1st, 2011
Workshop date: April 12th-13th, 2011
EXTENDED ABSTRACT SUBMISSION
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Authors are invited to submit extended abstracts of not more than 2 pages of
double column text using single spaced 10 point size on 8.5 x 11 inch pages
(including all text, figures, and references); please use the ACM 8.5 x 11
manuscript templates from
http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates. A 150 word abstract
and the final 2 page extended abstract (PDF format) must be submitted online at
https://cmt.research.microsoft.com/CCA2011/ before the deadline of March 22nd,
2011 at 11:59PM PST. The extended abstracts will be reviewed, and accepted
abstracts will be published online at the CCA11 website (http://www.cca11.org/).
Notifications of the paper decisions will be sent out by March 29th, 2011.
Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to register
and
present the abstract in the poster session on April 12, 2011. Three extended
abstracts will be chosen for 30-minute presentation slots in the final program,
which consists of invited leading researchers in Cloud Computing. For more
information about the poster session, please visithttp://www.cca11.org/, or send
questions to Ioan Raicu ([email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>).
