Call for Papers

 

The First International Workshop on Cloud Management and Security (CMS2011)

 

Cloud computing is getting increasingly popular and is viewed as the essential infrastructure for next-generation computing. But there are still many open and unresolved issues including Management (including system performance optimization, large-scale storage, efficient resource virtualization techniques), Security and Privacy challenges, and the lack of uniform standards. This workshop aims to provide a discussion platform for both researchers and practitioners to exchange ideas on cloud management and security & privacy issues, which will be held jointly with The 9^thInternational Conference on Dependable, Autonomic and Secure Computing (DASC 2011), December 12-14, 2011, Sydney, Australia.

 

Topics of Interest

The workshop solicits manuscript with original, unpublished and submitted work. Topics of interest include, but not limited to, are:

• ・      Performance evaluation & modeling Cloud computing environments
• ・      Cloud service orchestration
• ・      Cloud scalable monitoring
• ・      Cloud load balancing and scheduling
• ・      Policy driven service/resource lifecycle management
• ・      Management as a service
• ・      Managing cloud services, or the Internet of services
• ・      Management of virtualized hardware resources
• ・      practical cryptographic protocols for cloud security
• ・      secure cloud resource virtualization mechanisms
• ・      secure data management outsourcing
• ・      practical privacy and integrity mechanisms for outsourcing
• ・      foundations of cloud-centric threat models
• ・      secure computation outsourcing
• ・      trust and policy management in clouds
• ・      secure identity management mechanisms
• ・      cloud-centric regulatory compliance issues and mechanisms
• ・      security for emerging cloud programming models
• ・      energy/cost/efficiency of security in clouds

 

 

Publications

Accepted and presented papers will be included into the IEEE Conference Proceedings published by IEEE CS Press. Authors of accepted papers, or at least one of them, are requested to register and present their work at the conference, otherwise their papers will be removed from the digital libraries of IEEE CS and EI after the conference. Selected (extended) papers will be invited to a journal special issue (pending).

 

 

 

Paper Submission

The Workshop Cloud Management invites authors to submit original and unpublished work. Papers should not exceed 8 pages IEEE style (single-spaced 2-column of text using 10-point size type on A4 paper). Authors should submit a PostScript (level 2) or PDF file that will print on a PostScript printer.

•   Electronic submission only via email to iwcms2011 [at] gmail.com
