3rd Cloud Futures Workshop 2012: Hot Topics
in Research and Education May 7–8, 2012 |
Berkeley,
California, United States Website: http://research.microsoft.com/en-US/events/cloudfutures2012/ Cloud computing is an exciting platform for
research and
education. It has the potential to advance scientific and
technological
progress by making data and computing resources readily available
at
unprecedented economy of scale and nearly infinite scalability. To
realize the
full promise of cloud computing for research and education,
however, we must
think about the cloud as a holistic platform for creating new
services, new
experiences, and new methods to pursue research, teaching, and
scholarly
communication. This goal presents a broad range of interesting
questions. The Cloud Futures Workshop series brings
together thought
leaders from academia, industry, and government to discuss the
role of cloud
computing across a variety of research and educational areas.
Presentations,
posters and discussions will investigate how new programming
techniques,
software platforms, software engineering and methodology, and
methods of
research and teaching in the cloud may solve distinct challenges
arising in
diverse areas of society. General Co-Chairs Michaael J Franklin, University of California,

of research
in the cloud may solve distinct challenges arising in diverse
areas, including
computer science, engineering, earth sciences, healthcare,
humanities,
interactive games, life sciences, and social sciences. We
encourage abstracts
that describe practical experiences, experimental results, and
vision papers.
All papers will be peer-reviewed. Submission Instructions ·
