Instructions for participants
Submit an abstract
The workshop seeks to identify desired capabilities of next generation shared experimental cloud computing research infrastructures. To ensure these capabilities will satisfy the anticipated needs of experimenters, participants will seek to articulate major elements of a community research agenda around cloud computing systems research.
Each prospective workshop participant should submit a one-page summary of a position, experiment, technology, application, architecture, lesson learned, or research vision to share with attendees. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
- position statements on community cloud research goals
- proposals for tools to support experimenters
- analysis of successes and failures of cloud technology transfers
- future hardware technologies and cloud software stacks
- the role of pubic clouds in cloud systems research
- democratizing cloud access for underserved institutions
- educating the future cloud workforce
- the value of hardware diversity across cloud research infrastructures
- cloud infrastructure federation
- system scale required for experiments in 5-10 years
- how you use and balance community research infrastructure and public clouds
- barriers to developing education clouds
- hybrid clouds in your research
- novel applications
- managing large-scale experiments and diagnosing failures
- experiment reproducibility
- cloud storage, compute, networking architectures
The submitted abstracts will be distributed to workshop attendees, and included with the workshop report.
