Doctoral Symposium
------------------
The goal of the Doctoral Symposium is to provide a supportive and shepherding environment in which PhD students can present their research proposal and attend UCC. Students will be able to discuss their research objectives, methods and approach and results at various stages of their research. The aim is to solicit feedback on their research from well-established researchers and attendees. We have selected the following papers for the UCC 2014 Doctoral Symposium.
Re-engineering the Database Layer of Legacy Applications for Scalable Cloud Deployment D1. Martyn Ellison, Radu Calinescu and Richard Paige.
Truesource: A True Performance For Hierarchical Cloud Monitoring D2. Adam Currie, Aaron McConnell, Gerard Parr, Sally McClean and Kashaf Khan.

UCC2014 Industry Session Overview
------------------------------
---
The aim of this day is to share a range of stimulating perspectives on what we understand by the digital economy. Already we have seen a disruptive change in the way that infrastructure hosts, service providers and users are finding new ways to do business. Whilst the flexibility and scalability has radically changed how business organisations can emerge and grow, there are many further questions to be identified and addressed about governance, regulation and even reporting. Notable speakers are participating from VMWare, Microsoft Research and Google.
Venue
------
The Hilton London Paddington hotel is conveniently located 15 minutes from Heathrow Airport and connected by footbridge to Paddington Station. With four London Underground lines—Circle, Hammersmith & City, District, and Bakerloo—linked to the station, this is one of London’s best connected hotels. Over 150 years of history have made this hotel a legend. It’s located in the heart of the city and is within walking distance of London’s premier attractions.
This grand Victorian hotel offers a full range of modern facilities. Catch up with work in the business center or keep in touch with colleagues in the Executive Lounge. Enjoy the diverse menu and continental influences of the celebrated Brasserie Restaurant. The chic Steam Bar provides the perfect place for dinner or a late night drink, with sleek decor, a contemporary feel, and a relaxed atmosphere.
