------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *** Call for Participation *** 4th Workshop on Scientific Cloud Computing (ScienceCloud) 2013 Co-located with ACM HPDC 2013, New York City, NY, USA -- June 17th, 2013 http://datasys.cs.iit.edu/events/ScienceCloud2013/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The 4th workshop on Scientific Cloud Computing (ScienceCloud) will provide the scientific community a dedicated forum for discussing new research, development, and deployment efforts in running scientific computing workloads on Cloud Computing infrastructures. The ScienceCloud workshop will focus on the use of cloud-based technologies to meet new compute-intensive and data- intensive scientific challenges that are not well served by the current supercomputers, grids and HPC clusters. The workshop features a keynote talk by Dr. Ian T. Foster (University of Chicago & Argonne National Laboratory), an invited talk by Radu Sion (Stony Brook), and 7 papers and oral presentations. The talk titles for the full day workshop are: - Keynote: Science as a Service: How On-Demand Computing Can Accelerate Discovery - High Performance Risk Aggregation: Addressing the Data Processing Challenge the Hadoop MapReduce Way - Performance Evaluation of a MongoDB and Hadoop Platform for Scientific Data Analysis - VIDAS: Object-based Virtualized Data Sharing for High Performance Storage I/O - Invited talk: To Cloud My Big Data or Not To? Musings at the Intersection of Big Data, Intense Computing and Clouds - StorkCloud: Data Transfer Scheduling and Optimization as a Service - Downscaling in a Multi-Cloud Environment - Dimensioning the Virtual Cluster for Parallel Scientific Workflows in Clouds - HTC Scientific Computing in a Distributed Cloud Environment The full program can be found at http://datasys.cs.iit.edu/events/ScienceCloud2013/program.html.
