---------------Call for Papers---------------------------------------
The 5th International Symposium on Intercloud and IoT (ICI 2018)
6-8 August 2018, Barcelona, Spain
http://www.ficloud.org/ici2018/
Co-located with the IEEE FiCloud 2018 (http://www.ficloud.org/2018/)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Intercloud aims to create a cloud of clouds in order to enable
interconnection between heterogeneous clouds. Objectives are to share
resources, support extreme workload, efficiently process big data and
place data and compute power closer to places where they are needed
more. Intercloud can also minimise the vendor lock-in problem so that
users can use services offered by multiple clouds.
Intercloud can be used in a wide spectrum of applications including the
IoT. For instance, according to the Cisco's Internet of Things Business
Unit, Cisco plans to enhance IoT services through Intercloud in order to
localise compute power and data processing where these are needed more -
e.g., "sensors on a cargo ship can monitor whether the containers on
board have shifted en route or gotten too hot or too cold. All those
readings may add up to more data than is economical to send in real time
to a data center half a world away via a narrowband satellite linkî
(Computerworld).
The objective of the International Symposium on Intercloud and IoT (ICI)
is to discuss and develop new models, methods, and techniques in order
to realise the true vision of Intercloud and IoT services. It aims to
provide a forum for researchers and practitioners in order to discuss
ideas and share knowledge on various issues related to the theme of the
symposium.
Topics of the ICI symposium include (but not limited to):
- Architectures and models
- Integration and collaboration
- Network design and architecture
- Software systems
- Data processing and management
- Context-aware service provisioning
- Security, trust and privacy
- Fault tolerance and reliability
- Performance evaluation and modelling
- Network communication protocols
- Rules and policies
- Business models and standards
- Service level agreements
