========================================================================

Rapid advances in architectures, networks, and systems and middleware
technologies
are leading to new concepts and platforms for computing, ranging from
Clusters and
Grids to Clouds and Datacenters. The 15th Annual IEEE/ACM
International Symposium
in Cluster, Cloud, and Grid Computing (CCGrid 2015) is a forum bringing together
international researchers, developers, and practitioners to present
leading research
activities and results on a broad range of topics related to these concepts and
platforms, and their applications. The conference features keynotes, technical
presentations, workshops, and posters, as well as the Doctoral Symposium and the
SCALE challenge, featuring live demonstrations.

In 2015, CCGrid will return to China and be held in Shenzhen in the
Pearl River Delta,
China's fifth largest city. The main conference will be held on May 5-7, 2015,
with affiliated workshops taking place on May 4, 2015.

All papers presented at the main conference and workshops of IEEE/ACM
CCGrid 2015
will be submitted to IEEE Xplore for publication and EI indexing.

not conforming to these guidelines may be returned without review. The
official language of the conference is English. All manuscripts will be
reviewed and judged on correctness, originality, technical strength,
significance, quality of presentation, and interest and relevance to the
conference attendees.

Paper submissions are limited to 10 pages in 2-column IEEE format
including all figures and references. Submitted manuscripts exceeding
this limit will be returned without review. For the final camera-ready
version, authors with accepted papers may purchase additional pages at
the following rates: 100 USD for each of the first two additional pages;
200 USD for each of the third and fourth additional pages.

Submitted papers must represent original unpublished research that is not
currently under review for any other conference or journal. Papers not
following these guidelines will be rejected without review and further
action may be taken, including (but not limited to) notifications sent to
the heads of the institutions of the authors and sponsors of the
conference. Submissions received after the due date, exceeding the page
limit, or not appropriately structured may not be considered. Authors may
contact the conference chairs for more information. The proceedings will
be published through the IEEE Computer Society Conference Publishing Services.
