FOCUS
-----
The goal of the workshop is to bring together researchers and
practitioners to explore the potential of cloud-based computing in
facilitating the convergence between workflows and large-scale data
processing. Concretely, the workshop is expected to provide insight
into:

- performance issues: efficient data processing using cloud-based
workflows,
- modelling issues: best practices in data-intensive workflow
modelling and enactment,
- support technology issues: how the potential synergy between large-
scale data processing and workflow technology can be exploited in a
principled way.

The workshop aims to address issues of (i) Architecture, (ii) Models
and Languages, (iii) Applications of cloud-based workflows. Specific
topics include (but, as usual, are not limited to):

Architectures:
+ cloud-based, scalable workflow enactment architectures,
+ efficient data storage for data-intensive workflows,
+ optimizing execution of data-intensive workflows,
+ workflow scheduling in cloud computing.

Models, Languages:
+ languages for data-intensive workflows, data processing pipelines
and data-mashups,
+ verification and validation of data-intensive workflows,
+ programming models for cloud computing,
+ access control and authorisation models, privacy, security, risk and
trust issues,
+ workflow patterns for data-intensive workflows.

Applications of cloud-based workflow:
+ bioinformatics,
+ data mashups,
+ semantic web data management,
+ big data analytics.

----------------
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
----------------
We invite full research or experience papers (up to 12 pages), or
short papers (up to 6 pages) describing research in progress,
formatted using the ACM proceedings style (http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates
)

----------------
PUBLICATION
----------------
The workshop proceedings will be part published by CEUR and will be
included in the ACM DL.

In addition, we have an agreement with the Fundamenta Informaticae
journal to fast-track a few selected paper for further publication.
