The "Cloud" is a natural evolution of distributed computing and of the
widespread adaption of virtualization and Service-Oriented Architectures
(SOA).
In Cloud Computing, IT-related capabilities and resources are provided
as services, via the Internet and on-demand, accessible without
requiring detailed knowledge of the underlying technology.
**IEEE International Conference on Cloud Computing Technology & Science
2018 (CloudCom 2018)** will be the 10th in the series of conferences.
CloudCom is the premier conference on Cloud Computing worldwide,
attracting researchers, developers, users, students and practitioners
from the fields of big data, systems architecture, services research,
virtualization, security and privacy, high performance computing, always
with an emphasis on how to build cloud computing platforms with real
impact. The conference is co-sponsored by the Institute of Electrical
and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), is steered by the Cloud Computing
Association, and draws on the excellence of its world-class Program
Committee and its participants.
CloudCom 2018 will be held in Nicosia, Cyprus between 10-13 December,
2018.
