Trusted Cloud Computing Task Force   

 


 

Purpose

  
In the current cloud computing environment, intelligent cloud computing has emerged to address an explosive growth of networks and processed large amounts of data. It is defined and characterized by massive scalability and new Internet-driven economics. Meanwhile, as the number and complexity of these intelligent systems grow, trusted cloud computing technologies are not available in many fields and it is necessary to understand the involved business risks. The repeated attempts of using traditional techniques already leave many important problems unsolved, which are not addressed in some cases. If cloud computing is to be successful, it is essential to gain users’ trust. Therefore, we need to study the cloud-related trust topics, such as what are the components of such trust and how can trust is achieved, and this would be a great investment into the future for our Society to have a Task Force that deals with these challenging problems. This Task Force would serve to fulfill that purpose.

        This task force will explore the recent advancements and applications of “Trusted Cloud Computing (TCC)” on Computational Intelligence, which will address the issues of security, reliability, fault-tolerance, assuring availability, and sustainability for the deployment of quality cloud infrastructures and the delivery of quality cloud services. TCC intends to collect series of the very best research results, problem solutions, and insight on new challenges towards the field of trust issues, which make use of trusted cloud computing in all intelligence research and application fields. Typical TCC is encouraged to submit related papers that address fundamental issues of quality assurance in Cloud Computing Environments (CCE), including the management of virtual resources, large-scale distributed management, resource optimization, scheduling, load balancing, monitoring and auditing, amongst others. TCC not only necessarily draw upon over three decades of tradition in the field of trust intelligence computing, but also push the limits of our understanding and require substantial innovation and creativity in cloud computing services.  
 

Technical Community

        The technical community includes security, dependability and privacy, scalable and data-dependable computing, trusted mobile computing, trusted semantic technology units, surveillance units, Cloud/Grid/Utility Computing over Optical Networks organizations, public safety and monitoring organizations. The community also includes trusted intelligence departments and defense research organizations.
