                     *** Call for Extended Abstracts ***                                     
       The 3rd Workshop on Cloud Computing and its Applications (CCA) 2011
    In conjunction with GlobusWorld 2011, April 12th-13th, Argonne, Illinois
                             http://www.cca11.org/ 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dramatic growth in data and equally rapid decline in the cost of highly 
integrated clusters has spurred the emergence of the data center as the platform 
of choice for a growing class of data-intensive applications. To encourage 
conversations between those developing applications, algorithms, software, and 
hardware for such "cloud" platforms, we are convening the third workshop on Cloud 
Computing and Its Applications (CCA11).

CCA11 will provide reception and poster session on April 12th (Call for Extended 
Abstract - due March 15th), as well as a full day of distinguished invited talks 
on April 13th on cloud computing, data intensive scalable computing, and related 
topics. CCA11 will be held at Argonne National Laboratory (Bldg. 240 Conference 
Center) in Argonne Illinois, just 25 miles west of Chicago, Illinois.

IMPORTANT DATES
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Extended Abstract submission: March 15th, 2011
Acceptance notification: March 22nd, 2011
Final extended abstracts due: April 1st, 2011
Workshop date: April 12th-13th, 2011

EXTENDED ABSTRACT SUBMISSION
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Authors are invited to submit extended abstracts of not more than 2 pages of 
double column text using single spaced 10 point size on 8.5 x 11 inch pages 
(including all text, figures, and references); please use the ACM 8.5 x 11 
manuscript templates from 
http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates. A 150 word abstract 
and the final 2 page extended abstract (PDF format) must be submitted online at 
https://cmt.research.microsoft.com/CCA2011/ before the deadline of March 15th, 
2011 at 11:59PM PST. The extended abstracts will be reviewed, and accepted 
abstracts will be published online at the CCA11 website (http://www.cca11.org/). 
Notifications of the paper decisions will be sent out by March 22nd, 2011. 
Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to register and 
present the abstract in the poster session on April 12, 2011. One extended 
abstract will be chosen for a 30-minute presentation slot in the final program, 
which consists of invited leading researchers in Cloud Computing. For more 
information about the poster session, please visit http://www.cca11.org/, or send 
questions to Ioan Raicu (iraicu@xxxxxxxxxx).
