In conjunction with The 6th International Wireless Communications and 
Mobile Computing Conference (IWCMC 2010)

SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES

"Cloud" is a common metaphor for an Internet accessible
infrastructure, hiding most of the implementation and deployment
details of the system from users.  Cloud computing delivers IT-related
capabilities as services over the Internet, allowing resources to be
managed and accessed at an Internet scale.  Cloud computing has been
envisaged to be one of the main stream powering technologies of future
IT systems.

The First International Workshop on Cloud Computing Interoperability
and Services focuses on techniques, experiences and lessons learned
for interoperable services in the cloud.  This workshop aims at
providing a forum to bring together researchers for sharing and
exchanging cloud computing related research, technologies, experience,
and lessons for building clouds of interoperability and coordination
capabilities and services.


The Workshop topics include (but are not limited to) the following:

* Cloud Architectures
* Middleware frameworks
* Software as a Service (SaaS)
* Platform as a Service (PaaS)
* Hardware as a Service (Haas)
* Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
* Semantic web for Clouds
* Cloud Protocols
* Virtualization Technologies
* Service-oriented Computing
* Management of Clouds
* Cloud Security
* Cloud Applications
* Experiences and Lessons



PAPER SUBMISSIONS

You are invited to submit original and unpublished research works on
above and other topics related to Cloud Computing.  Submitted papers
must not have been published or simultaneously submitted elsewhere.
Submission should include a cover page with authors' names,
affiliation addresses, fax numbers, phone numbers, and email
addresses.  Please, indicate clearly the corresponding author and
include up to 6 keywords from the above list of topics and an abstract
of no more than 400 words.  The full manuscript should be at most 8
pages using the two-column IEEE format.  Additional pages will be
charged at additional fee.  Please include page numbers on all
submissions to make it easier for reviewers to provide helpful
comments.  Submit a PDF copy of your full manuscript to the Workshop
paper submission site at
http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=intercloud2010.

Only PDF files will be accepted.  Each paper will receive a minimum of
three reviews.  Papers will be selected based on their originality,
relevance, technical clarity and presentation.  Authors of accepted
papers must guarantee that their papers will be registered and
presented at the workshop.  Accepted papers will be published in the
conference proceedings which will be available at the time of the
meeting.

Submission of a paper implies that should the paper be accepted, at
least one of the authors will register for the HPCS conference and
present the paper in the workshop.  Accepted papers will be given
guidelines in preparing and submitting the final manuscript(s)
together with the notification of acceptance.  Note that InterCloud
does not require anonymized submissions.

All accepted papers will be published as ISBN proceedings by the IEEE
and will be available online through IEEE Digital Library (EI
indexing).
