Emerging Software as a Service and Analytics 2015 (ESaaSA 2015), deadline extended till March 12, 2015

The focus of this workshop is to demonstrate new techniques, demonstrations and innovative approaches in ESaaSA and analytics services. The impacts of research contributions are as follows.

- Explain how to implement analytics, and their added values.
- Demonstrate how ESaaSA can be used in different case studies.
- Describe how to resolve challenges in each Cloud Computing adoption scenario.
- Provide reproducible steps for anyone to follow, and support reproducibility, an important aspect in Cloud Computing science.
- Explain how their Cloud services can work effectively in production and real-time
- Present how their services can make contributions to users involved in the use of Cloud services and adoption.
- Sum up and disseminate all the lessons learned and recommendation to play an influential role in academia and industry
