Call For Papers

CLOUD 2016 Call for Papers

Sponsored by the Technical Committee on Services Computing (TC-SVC), IEEE Computer Society
The 9th IEEE International Conference on Cloud Computing (CLOUD 2016)

Theme: Cloud Services

CLOUD 2016 organizing committee invites you to participate in the 9th edition of CLOUD, to be held on June 27 - July 2, 2016, San Francisco, USA

CLOUD 2016 has obtained approval from the following journals to organize special issues based on extended versions of top CLOUD papers:
-One Special Issue in IEEE Transactions on Services Computing (TSC) (Indexed by SCI & EI),
-Four Special Issues in International Journal of Cloud Computing (IJCC),
-One Special Issue in International Journal of Web Services Research (JWSR)(Indexed by SCI & EI),
-One Special Issue in International Journal of Business Process Integration and Management (IJBPIM).

Selected accepted papers will be invited to submit extended versions to special issues of TSC, IJCC, JWSR, and IJBPIM.

The IEEE International Conference on Web Services (CLOUD) has been a prime international forum for both researchers and industry practitioners to exchange the latest fundamental advances in the state of the art and practice of cloud computing, identify emerging research topics, and define the future of cloud computing.

Cloud Computing has become a scalable services consumption and delivery platform in the field of Services Computing. The technical foundations of Cloud Computing include Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) and Virtualizations of hardware and software. The goal of Cloud Computing is to share resources among the cloud service consumers, cloud partners, and cloud vendors in the cloud value chain. The resource sharing at various levels results in various cloud offerings such as infrastructure cloud (e.g., hardware, IT infrastructure management), software cloud (e.g. SaaS focusing on middleware as a service, or traditional CRM as a service), application cloud (e.g., Application as a Service, UML modeling tools as a service, social network as a service), and business cloud (e.g., business process as a service).

In 2016, CLOUD 2016 will co-locate with the following service-oriented sister conferences: the 23th IEEE 2016 International Conference on Web Services (ICWS 2016), the 13th IEEE 2016 International Conference on Services Computing (SCC 2016), the 5th IEEE International Conference on Mobile Services (MS 2016), the 5th International Congress on Big Data (BigData Congress 2016), and 2016 IEEE World Congress on Services (SERVICES 2016) The six co-located theme topic conferences will all center around "services," while each focusing on exploring different aspects (cloud-based services, web-based services, business services, mobile services, Big Data-based services, and industry-specific services and emerging service-oriented technologies). CLOUD 2016 will grow itself to continue to be the most prestigious professional conference dedicated to cloud computing.

The technical program of CLOUD 2016 will include a Research Track, an Application Track, and a Short Paper Track. The CLOUD 2016 tracks seeks original, UNPUBLISHED research papers reporting substantive new work in various aspects of cloud services. Research Track papers MUST clearly indicate their contributions to the field of Web-based services. All papers MUST properly cite related work in the field, such as those published in the proceedings of CLOUD, SCC, CLOUD, SERVICES, APSCC, ECOWS, and related journals including TSC, JWSR, IJSC, and IJBPIM (see Literature Recommendations page).

Contributions addressing all areas related to cloud computing technology, systems, applications and business innovations are solicited. CLOUD 2016 will organize refereed paper reviews in 10 research areas (themes):

Extended versions of research track papers and selected application track papers will be invited for potential publication in the IEEE Transactions on Services Computing (TSC), International Journal of Cloud Computing, and International Journal of Business Process Integration and Management (IJBPIM). Both TSC and JWSR are indexed by SCI and EI [Link].

Submitted Research Track and Application Track manuscripts will be limited to 8 (IEEE Proceedings style) pages and REQUIRED to be formatted using the IEEE Proceedings template. Submitted Short Paper track manuscripts will be limited to 4 (IEEE Proceedings style) pages. Unformatted papers and papers beyond the page limit may not be reviewed. Electronic submission of manuscripts (in PDF or Word format) is required. Detailed instructions for electronic paper preparation and submission, panel proposals, tutorial proposals, workshop proposals, and review process can be found at Conference website.

At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register to the conference and present the paper. One Best Paper award and one Best Student Paper award will be granted at CLOUD 2016. The first author of the best student paper must be a full-time student.
