ABSTRACT
Cloud Computing has become a scalable services delivery platform in the field of Services
Computing. The technical foundations of Cloud Computing include Service-Oriented
Architecture (SOA) and Virtualizations of hardware and software. The goal of Cloud Computing
is to share resources among the cloud service consumers, cloud partners, and cloud vendors
in the cloud value chain. The resource sharing at various levels results in various cloud
offerings such as infrastructure cloud (e.g. hardware, IT infrastructure management), software
cloud (e.g. SaaS focusing on middleware as a service, or traditional CRM as a service),
application cloud (e.g. Application as a Service, UML modeling tools as a service, social
network as a service), and business cloud (e.g. business process as a service).
In the fast growing Services Computing community, we have launched a series of events to
promote and grow Cloud Computing in the past years. In 2002, we promoted Business Grid to
share business processes and applications. In early 2008, The IEEE Transactions on Services
Computing (TSC) has adopted Cloud Computing to be included in the taxonomy as a body of
knowledge area of Services Computing. In July 2008, the IEEE International Conference on
Services Computing (SCC 2008) has delivered a keynote panel “Business Cloud: Bridging The
Power of SOA and Cloud Computing” and a keynote “Cloud Computing”. In September 2008,
the 2008 IEEE International Conference on Web Services (ICWS 2008) has delivered a
keynote “Web Services: Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), Communication, and Beyond” and a
panel "Cloud Computing and IT as a Service: Opportunities and Challenges" to further
motivate the community members to define Cloud Computing in various areas.
Based on the technology foundations and industry driving forces, the 2009 International
Conference on Cloud Computing (CLOUD 2009) is created to provide a prime international
forum for both researchers and industry practitioners to exchange the latest fundamental
advances in the state of the art and practice of Cloud Computing, identify emerging research
topics, and define the future of Cloud Computing.
CLOUD 2009 is jointly sponsored by IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Services
Computing (TC-SVC) and Services Society.
To discuss this emerging enabling technology of the modern services industry, CLOUD-II 2009
invites you to join the seventh year’s gathering that explores "Services" Science and
Technology in the field of Services Computing, which was formally promoted by IEEE
Computer Society since 2003. From technology foundation perspective, Services Computing
has become the default discipline in the modern services industry.
