About the Conference

Overview

The ACM Symposium on Cloud Computing 2011 (ACM SOCC 2011) is the second in a new series of symposia with the aim of bringing together researchers, developers, users, and practitioners interested in cloud computing. This series is co-sponsored by the ACM Special Interest Groups on Management of Data (ACM SIGMOD) and on Operating Systems (ACM SIGOPS). ACM SOCC is held in conjunction with ACM SIGMOD and ACM SOSP Conferences in alternate years. In 2011 it will be held in conjunction with ACM SOSP.

The scope of SOCC Symposia will be broad and will encompass diverse systems topics such as software as a service, virtualization, and scalable cloud data services. Many facets of systems and data management issues will need to be revisited in the context of cloud computing. Suggested topics for paper submissions include but are not limited to:

• Administration and Manageability
• Data Privacy
• Data Services Architectures
• Distributed and Parallel
• Query Processing
• Energy Management
• Geographic Distribution
• Grid Computing
• High Availability and Reliability
• Infrastructure Technologies
• Large Scale Cloud Applications
• Multi-tenancy Programming Models
• Provisioning and Metering
• Resource Management and Performance
• Scientific Data Management
• Security of Services
• Service Level Agreements
