WORKSHOP

IEEE International Workshop on Cloud Computing and Business Computing held in conjunction with The 2011 IEEE International Conference on Granular Computing (GrC 2011), Kaohsiung, Taiwan, 8-10 November 2011.
Website http://www2.ipcku.kansai-u.ac.jp/~yada/conf/cb11/

SCOPE

Cloud computing is an emerging paradigm not only for science areas but also for business areas. Since Cloud computing allows us to build large computing systems with low initial cost and low running cost, it has significant impact on business areas. The workshop is aimed at bringing together researchers from the areas of business (social sciences) and Cloud computing. We expect to encourage an exchange of ideas, practices and perceptions of Cloud computing, identify emerging research topics, and define the future of Cloud computing through the workshop, focused on business and social sciences. New computing systems and business models that can be put on top of the Cloud computing technologies are a major concern of this workshop. This workshop has special interest in papers that contribute to Cloud computing, e-Business, and those that apply techniques from one area to another.
