In addition, governments have to ensure that both domestic and international legislations align with the evolving challenges resulting from the maturity of cloud computing as a mainstream IT business model. The nature of a trusted third party (e.g. an offshore cloud service provider) has also pushed policy making to the limits. For example, what should institutions consider when they are employing a cloud service provider, which hosts their data in an offshore data center? There are many technical and policy aspects relating to this research area, and in this workshop, we seek to provide a platform for the engagement and discussion of this interesting, multi-disciplinary topic. We also welcome emerging innovative concepts and analysis which will shape the cloud computing landscape from a technical perspective.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Topics of Interest<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>We welcome technical-, policy- and/or legal-oriented submissions related to (but not limited to) the following:<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>-Cloud accountability <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>-Cloud data analytics<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>-Cloud data governance<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>-Cloud forensics<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>-Cloud privacy<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>-Cloud provenance<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>-Cloud security (e.g. cryptographic techniques and protocols)<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>-Cloud trust<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>-Cloud visualizations<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>We also welcome survey papers as well as novel proposals for a paradigm shift on one or more of the above topics.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>For submission details, please refer to the web page (link provided at the top) for more information.<o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
