DESCRIPTION

Cloud computing, virtualization and virtual (eScience) applications are
currently hot topics
and have been generating substantial interest in the community, and it is
anticipated that this
interest will expand. It is also important to the research community as it
is challenging
traditional methods by its sheer size and high level of automation. Clouds
must provide
appropriate levels of performance to large groups of diverse users, and
those clouds
are accessed through virtualized wide area networks. Management systems are
essential
for that and thereby for the future success of the cloud paradigm. New
systems, methods, and
approaches for cloud, virtualization and (eScience) applications management
are to be discussed
at this workshop.

For the CloudAM 2016 workshop, researchers from Clouds and (eScience)
Applications communities
are encouraged to submit and present original work to be considered for
publication.
Overall topics of interest include but are not limited to:

* Cloud computing environments
* Cloud service orchestration
* Cloud APIs and usage control
* Cloud data management
* Cloud scalable monitoring
* Cloud load balancing
* Multi-cloud/Inter-clouds
* Customer cloud management
* Managing data centers
* Management as a service
* Management of virtual slices
* *aaS Management
* Application and Management Portals
* Cloud scheduling
* Hybrid clouds
* Fog computing
* Cloud case studies
* Cloud surveys and taxonomies
* Social clouds
* Accounting and economic models for clouds
* Managing cloud services
* Management of virtualized hardware resources
* Network-specific mechanisms for optimized cloud access
* Performance modeling & evaluation
* QoS/QoE management in the cloud
* Management tools for infrastructure virtualization
* Automated resource slicing
* Integration of the wireless and optical domains
* Policy driven service/resource life-cycle management
* Applications and services enabled by virtualized infrastructure
* Optimization of data center and workload energy consumption
* Green cloud computing
* Scientific workflows on clouds
* Mobile clouds
* Big data / complex event processing in the cloud
* Autonomic cloud computing
