The Cloud Futures
Workshop series brings together thought leaders from
academia, industry, and government to discuss the role
of cloud computing across a variety of research and
educational areas—including computer science,
engineering, Earth sciences, healthcare, humanities,
interactive games, life sciences, and social sciences. Presentations,
posters and discussions will highlight how new
techniques, software platforms, and methods of
research and teaching in the cloud may solve distinct
challenges arising in those diverse areas.
This year’s Workshop
is being hosted in conjunction with UC Berkeley.
Conference Co-Chairs:
Michael Franklin, UC Berkeley and Tony Hey, Microsoft
