The first international workshop FedICI'2013
Federative and interoperable cloud infrastructures
August 26 or 27 2013, Aachen, Germany
organized in conjunction with Euro-Par 2013
Call for papers
Workshop theme:
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) cloud systems allow the dynamic
creation, destruction and management of Virtual Machines (VM) on
virtualized clusters. IaaS clouds provide a high-level of abstraction to
the end user that allows the creation of on-demand services through a
pay as you go infrastructure combined with elasticity. As a result, many
academic infrastructure service providers have started transitions to
add cloud resources to their previously existing campus and shared grid
deployments. To complete such solutions, they should also support the
unification of multiple cloud and/or cloud and grid solutions in a
seamless, preferably interoperable way. Hybrid, community or
multi-clouds may utilize more than one cloud system, which are also
called as a cloud federations. The management of such federations raise
several challenges and open issues that require significant research
work to be done in this area.
This workshop will provide a dedicated forum for sharing the latest
results, exchanging ideas and experiences, presenting new research,
development and management of interoperable, federated IaaS cloud
systems. The aim of the workshop is to help the community with defining
the current state, determining further goals and presenting
architectures and service frameworks to achieve highly interoperable
federated cloud infrastructures. Priority will be given to submissions
that focus on presenting solutions to interoperability and efficient
management challenges faced by current and future infrastructure clouds.
Selection will prioritize papers that document and present measured
comparisons or practical information on realistic, real-world solutions.
All submissions will be peer-reviewed and judged on correctness,
originality, technical strength, significance, quality of presentation
and relevance to the topics of interest.
Scope:
Papers may be submitted on any topic relevant to the theme of the
workshop, including but not limited to:
- Case studies of interoperable and federated solutions across multiple
infrastructures including mixed grid and cloud systems
- Application programming interfaces and standards for interoperability
and federation
- Federation-compatible service agreements, SLAs and quality of service
systems
- Virtual machine scheduling, management and deployment algorithms in
federated systems (considering multi-objective solutions, scalability,
energy efficiency etc.)
- Accounting, identity management and security solutions that support
federation-level models
- Legal issues and data privacy in federated Cloud management
- Performance evaluation, prediction and comparison of federated cloud
systems
- Storage management, focusing on interoperability and multi cloud placement
- Novel IaaS architectures incorporating federative constructs in their
foundations
- Virtual appliance marketplaces and repositories meeting the demands
and serving multi-cloud systems
Authors are required to submit original, unpublished research or
overviews on Federative and interoperable cloud infrastructures.
Manuscripts should be limited to 10 pages in Springer LNCS format and
submitted through the EasyChair submission system

papers that are presented at the workshop will be published in revised
form in a special Euro-Par Workshop Volume in the Lecture Notes in
Computer Science (LNCS) series after the Euro-Par conference.
