Theme

Cloud Computing is defined as a pool of virtualized computer resources.
Based on this virtualization the Cloud Computing paradigm allows
workloads to be deployed and scaled-out quickly through the rapid
provisioning of virtual machines or physical machines.

A Cloud Computing platform supports redundant, self-recovering, highly
scalable programming models that allow workloads to recover from many
inevitable hardware/software failures and monitoring resource use in
real time for providing physical and virtual servers on which the
applications can run. A Cloud Computing platform is more than a
collection of computer resources because it provides a mechanism to
manage those resources.  In a Cloud Computing platform software is
migrating from the desktop into the "clouds" of the Internet, promising
users anytime, anywhere access to their programs and data. What
challenges does it presents to users, programmers, and
telecommunications providers? The goal of this Cloud Computing Symposium
series is to provide a forum for researchers and practitioners to
discuss all aspects of Cloud Computing.  All topics  of design, theory
and realization are of interest.

The Cloud Computing conference is sponsored by ICST (A non-profit
Institute for Computer Sciences, Social-Informatics and
Telecommunications Engineering), European Union; International Research
Institute on Autonomic Network Computing (IRIANC), Munich, Germany;
CreateNet Research Consortium, Trento, Italy;
