"Cloud Computing & You"
3rd Cloud Computing International Conference (CloudViews 2011)
October 17-18, 2011
Porto, Portugal
EuroCloud Portugal

--------------------------------------------------------------
Recognizing the potential of the Cloud Computing paradigm for ICT evolution, the
CloudViews.Org project was launched in the end of 2007. Initially created by
independent entrepreneurs, researchers and technical staff of the Porto
Polytechnic Institute, CloudViews.Org aimed at promoting and discussing
technologies related with Cloud Computing. Following the CloudViews.Org spirit,
the EuroCloud Portugal Association (www.eurocloud.pt), a non profit
organization, was created in January 2010.
The CloudViews project has already organized two international conferences on
Cloud Computing. "To Cloud or not to Cloud" was the main theme of the
first edition, held in Porto, Portugal, in 2009. "Cloud Ecosystem" was
the theme of CloudViews 2010, which was also held in Porto, Portugal with the
help of the Eurocloud Association. In that edition, academia, business people
and decision makers gathered together to present their views, which motivated a
lively debate where all ICT players were challenged to think about how to
achieve a true Cloud Ecosystem.
CloudViews 2011, in its third edition, moves a step forward by defying academia,
business people and decision makers to think about their relationship with the
clouds. "Cloud Computing & You", the main theme of the third
edition of CloudViews has as its main goal to raise awareness and analyse the
impact of Cloud Computing on small and medium business (SME), as well as on
individual users.
Around the theme "Cloud Computing & You", CloudViews 2011 welcomes
contributions from several fields related to cloud computing, including, but not
limited to, scientific computing applications, performance evaluation and
resource management, predictability and provision platforms, storage clouds
architectures and implementations, cloud computing security: models and
frameworks, cloud interoperability, scheduling mechanisms, elastic platforms,
service level agreements, fault tolerant architectures and implementations,
human factors in computing systems, cloud usability, and business models in the
cloud.
Submissions of full (8 pages maximum) and short papers (4 pages maximum) must
conform to 2 columns IEEE style, in PDF format and offer new, unpublished,
original contributions. All contributions must be written in English and
submitted electronically through the CV2011 Easy Chair conference system at
http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cloudviews2011.
Reviews will be double-blinded. Prepare your paper without any authors names or
affiliations and avoid explicit self-references such as "in a previous
work, we [ref]...". Give preference to sentences like: "in a previous
work, Smith et al [ref]...". Also avoid the inclusion of acknowledgements
and references to funding agencies in your submission version.
