Cloud Computing is a consumer/delivery model where IT capabilities are offered on demand in a scalable fashion. There are many misconceptions about what “clouds” actually are and the Gartner Hype Cycle clearly indicates that we are currently at a peak of terminological confusion. As such, clouds are often defined as an equivalent toIaaS (Infrastructure-as-a-Service), PaaS (Platform-as-a-Service) and / or SaaS (Software-as-a-Service), they are understood as pay-as-you-go service infrastructures and even as high-performance computing for the masses. In general, it is assumed that cloud computing will change the IT landscape.

CloudComp is intended to bring together researchers, developers, and industry professionals to discuss the concepts and underlying technologies behind clouds, cloud computing and related ecosystems. The conference also aims at presenting the recent advances, experiences and results obtained in the wider area of cloud computing, giving users and researchers equally a chance to gain better insight into the capabilities and limitations of current cloud systems. CloudComp will offer a chance to cloud providers to promote and display their current systems.

Call for Participation

Modern day cloud architectures circumference multiple levels, down from the physical layer of storage, network and compute resources, via a virtualization layer up to services and development platforms. The actual cloud features thereby act orthogonally to these layers, offering capabilities such as resource aggregation, elasticity through up / down scaling, availability and reliability. Cloud environments therefore realize means attractive for users and providers equally - these include many aspects arising indirectly from these environments, such as in particular quality adherence, flexible cost modelling, reduced time to market etc. Accordingly, much work spans issues related to the economical and efficiency management of these
