Dear Gustaf Neumann,
We would like to draw your attention to the 3rd International Conference on Cloud Computing and Services Science (CLOSER 2013 - http://closer.scitevents.org) whose submission deadline is scheduled for November 15, 2012. We hope you can participate in this conference by submitting a paper reflecting your current research in any of the following areas: - Cloud Computing Fundamentals - Services Science Foundation for Cloud Computing - Cloud Computing Platforms and Applications - Cloud Computing Enabling Technology
The conference will be sponsored by the Institute for Systems and Technologies of Information, Control and Communication (INSTICC), co-organized by the RWTH Aachen University and technically sponsored by SINTEF. INSTICC is Member of the Workflow Management Coalition (WfMC) and Object Management Group (OMG).
The 3rd International Conference on Cloud Computing and Services Science, CLOSER 2013, focuses on the emerging area of Cloud Computing, inspired by some latest advances that concern the infrastructure, operations, and available services through the global network. Further, the conference considers as essential the link to Services Science, acknowledging the service-orientation in most current IT-driven collaborations. The conference is nevertheless not about the union of these two (already broad) fields, but about Cloud Computing where we are also interested in how Services Science can provide theory, methods and techniques to design, analyze, manage, market etc. Cloud Computing.
We would like to highlight the presence of the following keynote speakers: - Gottfried Vossen, WWU Munster, Germany - Ivona Brandic, Vienna UT, Austria - Geoffrey Charles Fox, Indiana University, United States
CLOSER is interested in promoting high quality research as it can be confirmed by last year acceptance rates, where from 145 submissions, 19% were accepted as full papers. Additionally, 30% were presented as short papers and 14% as posters.
Submitted papers will be subject to a double-blind review process. All accepted papers (full, short and posters) will be published in the conference proceedings, under an ISBN reference, on paper and on CD-ROM support. BXDY A short list of papers presented will be selected for publication of extended and revised versions in a special issue of the Journal of Future Generation Computer Systems and also by Springer-Verlag in a SSRI Series book
The proceedings will be submitted for indexation by Thomson Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index (ISI), INSPEC, DBLP and EI (Elsevier Index). All papers presented at the conference venue will be available at the SCITEPRESS Digital Library (http://www.scitepress.org/DigitalLibrary/). SCITEPRESS is member of CrossRef (http://www.crossref.org/).
Best paper awards will be distributed during the conference closing session. Please check the website for further information (http://closer.scitevents.org/BestPaperAward.aspx).
We also would like to highlight the possibility to submit to the following Special Session, whose deadline is scheduled for March 1, 2013: - Special Session on Security Governance and SLAs in Cloud Computing (CloudSecGov) (http://closer.scitevents.org/CloudSecGov.aspx)
Workshops, Special sessions, Tutorials as well as Demonstrations dedicated to other technical/scientific topics are also envisaged: companies interested in presenting their products/methodologies or researchers interested in holding a tutorial are invited to contact the conference secretariat. Workshop chairs and Special Session chairs will benefit from logistics support and other types of support, including secretariat and financial support, to facilitate the development of a valid idea.
CLOSER 2013 will be held in conjunction with CSEDU (http://www.csedu.org), WEBIST (http://www.webist.org) and SMARTGREENS (http://www.smartgreens.org) in Aachen, Germany. Registration to CLOSER will enable free attendance to any sessions of CSEDU, WEBIST and SMARTGREENS conferences as a non-speaker.
Please check further details at the CLOSER conference website (http://closer.scitevents.org). Should you have any question please don't hesitate contacting me.
Kind regards, Joao Teixeira CLOSER Secretariat
