7th International Symposium on Algorithmic Aspects of Cloud Computing
September 5-6, 2022 - part of ALGO 2022
https://algo2022.eu/algocloud/
EXTENDED Submission deadline: 7 July 2022, 23:59 GMT
==============================================================================================
SCOPE
-----
ALGOCLOUD is an annual international symposium aiming to tackle the
diverse new topics in the
emerging area of algorithmic aspects of computing and data management in
modern cloud-based
systems interpreted broadly so as to include edge- and fog-based
systems, cloudlets, cloud
micro-services, virtualization environments, decentralized systems, as
well as dynamic networks.
ALGOCLOUD aims at bringing together researchers, students, and
practitioners to present research
activities and results on topics related to algorithmic, design, and
development aspects of
modern cloud-based systems. ALGOCLOUD 2022 is co-located with ALGO 2022,
a leading international
event of researchers working on algorithms and their engineering.
ALGOCLOUD welcomes submissions on all theoretical, design, and
implementation aspects of modern
cloud-based systems. ALGOCLOUD is particularly interested in novel
algorithms in the context of
cloud computing, cloud architectures, as well as experimental work that
evaluates contemporary
cloud approaches and pertinent applications. ALGOCLOUD also welcomes
demonstration manuscripts,
which discuss successful system developments, as well as
experience/use-case articles and high-
quality survey papers. Contributions may span a wide range of algorithms
for modeling, practices
for building and techniques for evaluating operations and services in a
variety of systems,
including but not limited to, virtualized infrastructures, cloud
computing platforms, edge
computing platforms, fog computing platforms, datacenters, cloud-storage
options, cloud data
management, non-traditional key-value stores on the cloud, HPC
architectures, decentralized
systems, as well as dynamic networks.
Submissions should focus on aspects of cloud-based systems and their
algorithms, including (but
not limited to) the following areas:
* Analysis of Algorithms and Data Structures
* Algorithms for Decentralized Systems
* Algorithms for Dynamic Networks
* Game-theoretic Approaches for Cloud Computing
* IoT and Cloud Computing
* Resource Management and Scheduling
* Data Center and Infrastructure Management
* Privacy, Security and Anonymization
* Cloud-based Applications
* Virtualization and Containers
* Performance Models
* Cloud deployment tools and their analysis
* Novel programming models
* Storage management
* Fog and Edge Computing
* Economic models and Pricing
* Energy and Power Management
* Big Data and the Cloud
* Network and graph analysis
* Network Management and Techniques
* Caching and Load Balancing
* Machine Learning for Cloud Computing & Systems
* Cloud Computing & Systems for Machine Learning
IMPORTANT DATES

SUBMISSION
----------
Submissions must be in the form of a single PDF file prepared using
Springer's LNCS style file
https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs. Proceedings will be
published by Springer.
ALGOCLOUD 2022 asks for the following types of submissions:
[A. REGULAR PAPERS] Authors are invited to submit high-quality
manuscripts reporting original
unpublished research in the topics related to the symposium. A regular
paper submission should
clearly motivate the importance of the problem being addressed, discuss
prior work and its
relationship to the paper, explicitly and precisely state the paper's
key contributions, and
outline the key technical ideas and methods used to achieve the main
results. A regular paper
submission should not exceed 12 pages, including title page and abstract
but excluding references
and an optional appendix. Authors should include all necessary details
in their submission so that
the Technical Program Committee (TPC) can judge correctness, importance
and originality of their
work. Any material (e.g., proofs or experimental results) omitted (from
the main part of 12 pages)
due to space limitations can be put into the optional appendix, which
will be read at the TPC's
discretion. Regular papers will be allotted up to 20 pages in the
proceedings.
[B. SHORT PAPERS] A short paper submission may present work-in-progress
on a specific topic, or
work appeared elsewhere but is worth publicizing it in the symposium, or
a demonstration of a
system or library, or an experience/use-case paper, or a vision paper.
Authors should clearly
motivate the importance of their contribution, discuss prior work and
its relationship to the
paper, and in general provide sufficient details in their submission so
that the TPC can judge the
quality and importance of their work. A short paper submission should be
at least 2 and at most 8
pages. Short papers will be allotted up to 8 pages in the proceedings.
[C. SURVEY PAPERS] A survey paper submission concerns the write-up of a
high-quality survey paper
on an emerging hot topic. Authors are asked to submit a proposal between
5 and 10 pages, that
clearly motivates the importance of the topic, and contains the
structure of the survey paper
along with the most important references that will be critically
reviewed and presented. If the
proposal is accepted, then authors will be given sufficient time (until
end of October 2021) to
prepare the full version of their survey paper that needs to pass a
quality control check by the
TPC, in order to be finally accepted and appear in the proceedings.
Survey papers will be allotted
up to 40 pages in the proceedings.
All papers should be submitted electronically via the EasyChair
submission system at:
Submissions website: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=algocloud2022
By submitting a paper the authors acknowledge that in case of acceptance
at least one of the
authors must register at ALGO/ALGOCLOUD 2022 and present the paper (this
holds for all types of
papers, including accepted survey proposals). Authors should consult
Springer's authors'
instructions and use their proceedings templates, either for LaTeX or
for Word, for the
preparation of their papers. Springer encourages authors to include
their ORCIDs in their papers.
In addition, the corresponding author of each paper, acting on behalf of
all of the authors of
that paper, must complete and sign a Consent-to-Publish form. The
corresponding author signing the
copyright form should match the corresponding author marked on the
paper. Once the files have been
sent to Springer, changes relating to the authorship of the papers
cannot be made. Springer's
proceedings LaTeX templates are available in Overleaf. Accepted papers
will be included in the
post-proceedings published by Springer in its Lecture Notes in Computer
Science series.

AWARDS
------
Awards will be given to the best regular paper and the best student
regular paper. A regular paper
is eligible for the best student paper award if at least one of the

student(s) must have made a major
contribution to the paper. The TPC can decide to decline or to split the
awards. Awards are
sponsored by Springer.
