The 2nd International Workshop on Cloud Services (IWCS'10)
- Platform Accelerating e-Business
(November 10-12, 2010, Shanghai, China, in conjunction with ICEBE 2010)
Cloud computing is an emerging dynamic scalable model of IT for web-delivered services.
It is increasingly applied to smartly interconnect people, processes, applications,
things, information and businesses to generate economic or social value with high quality
of experience and low cost. The cloud platform and services promise to fundamentally alter
how we think of, procure and use IT to accelerate e-business where end-users only
need a web browser and do not have to develop, install or maintain software or hardware and
pay flexibly for the business services they want to consume.
The globalization of economies and businesses, the emerging of cloud platforms and
business services, the billions of mobile devices accessing the Internet, the
real-time data streams and information sharing, and the rise of social networking
and computing are all propelling a combinatorial innovation in cloud services
accelerating e-business. Yet the economic and technical fundamentals of cloud services
remain to be explored especially in the context of e-business.
- What are the business models for cloud services?
- What business process is suitable moving onto Cloud?
- How to promote Cloud services on the Web?
- How to better understand customer behaviors and serve them on the Cloud?
- How to manage the Cloud service lifecycle from subscription, onboarding to configurations?
This workshop on cloud services aims to bring researchers and industry practitioners
together to exchange experience, insights and state-of-the-art research in addressing
the aforementioned challenges. Topics of interest in the workshop include but not limited to:
- E-Business Cloud service offerings, architecture & best practices in
relevant industries or process areas ( Customer Relationship Management,
Supply Chain Management, Sales Force Automation, e-Commerce, etc)
