IC2E is a high-quality, comprehensive IEEE forum whose scope
spans the entire cloud stack, and that offers an end-to-end perspective on the
challenges and technologies in cloud computing. To be held on March 11-14, 2014
in Boston, Massachusetts, IC2E 2014 is currently calling for paper submissions
to its main technical program, industry track, and doctoral symposium, and is
also soliciting proposals for co-located workshops and tutorials. Selected
papers of IC2E 2014 will be recommended for publication in a special issue of
the IEEE Transactions on Cloud Computing.
