3rd International Workshop on Collaborative Cloud (CollabCloud 2014)
Co-located with 10th IEEE International Conference on Collaborative
Computing: Networking, Applications and Worksharing, Collaboratecom 2014
October 22, 2014, Miami, Florida, USA

Many emerging services, such as tele-work, e-government, business
solutions, are using Clouds for their advantage in various forms. Some
businesses are providing services by outsourcing parts of their business
processes, which are now hosted as Cloud-based software services. Others
are adopting the Cloud based IT infrastructure to host the services. It is
mostly the small and medium enterprises (SME) to benefit the economic
incentives when using Cloud computing paradigm for their businesses.
However, there are challenges associated with every new technology.
Interoperability, communication, and security are the three major critical
issues that need to be addressed when collaborative services are deployed
in Clouds. Same is the case for the Cloud-based IT platforms that would
manage large number of shared and disparate services. Various quality
requirements, such as availability, security, economic cost, energy
efficiency, and so forth determine the feasibility of collaborating across
Cloud services and platforms.
CollabCloud brings together researchers and practitioners from around the
world to share their experiences on the challenges and problems faced in
high collaboration applications in the Cloud. This event will define
protocols and standards that needs to be set in place for improving
collaborative technologies in clouds making clouds a new and acceptable
paradigm for collaborative applications.

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
* Enabling application services across Clouds
* Novel cloud usage models
* High consistency models for collaborative cloud storage
* Innovative collaborative cloud service models
* Support for scalable and secure collaboration across Clouds
* Architectural Models for multi-Cloud deployment
* Security, privacy, and trust for collaborative cloud computing
* Multi-Cloud/hybrid-Cloud support for mobile applications
* Applications making use of collaboration in Clouds, including
games and social networks
* Cloud-enabled Social Computing
* Social and Social/Mobile Cloud models and challenges
* Collaborative Big Data systems
* Scientific, Business, and social computing in single and
multi-Cloud environment
* Challenges for collaboration in Clouds
