ICWS 2011 Work-in-Progress Track

We are planning a highly interactive and participatory meeting, with ample room for discussing new ideas, work in progress, and thesis and dissertations. Our Work-in-Progress Session will be carefully planned to achieve this goal. It will be fully integrated with the conference program, centering on providing a forum for researchers and industry practitioners to discuss their on-going research and projects in the field of cloud computing.

Accepted submissions and presented papers will be published in a special section of the ICWS 2011 Conference Proceedings in both CD-ROM version and online version by the IEEE Computer Society. Please follow the IEEE Computer Society Press Proceedings Author Guidelines to prepare your papers.

Purpose and Scope

This session provides a forum for attendees to illustrate and discuss their latest services computing related plans, projects, and advances, even when implementation or deployment has not been fully completed. However, the work should be advanced enough as to allow attendees to appreciate its scope and significance. Submissions may target on any topic related to the conference, describing on-going work at your institution. The Work-in-Progress papers will be an important way of sharing what is happening in Web services research and applications, so please feel free to submit your papers to ICWS 2011.
