Proceedings of the 9th Workshop on Scientific Cloud Computing

It is our pleasure to welcome you to the 6th Workshop on Scientific Cloud Computing (ScienceCloud). ScienceCloud continues to provide the scientific community with the premier forum for discussing new research, development, and deployment efforts in hosting scientific computing workloads on cloud computing infrastructures. The focus of the workshop is on the use of cloud-based technologies to meet new compute-intensive and data-intensive scientific challenges that are not well served by the current supercomputers, grids and HPC clusters. ScienceCloud provides a unique opportunity for interaction and cross-pollination between researchers and practitioners developing applications, algorithms, software, hardware and networking, emphasizing scientific computing for such cloud platforms. 
 
The call for papers attracted submissions from across the world. The program committee reviewed and accepted three of six full paper submissions (50%) and three of four short paper submissions (75%). 
 
We are delighted to include a keynote and panel involving leading scientific cloud computing researchers. We encourage attendees to attend these presentations: 
Challenges of Running Scientific Workflows in Cloud Environments, Ewa Deelman (Information Sciences Institute, University of Southern California) 
Real-time Scientific Data Stream Processing, Manish Parashar (Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey), Doug Thain (University of Notre Dame), Ioan Raicu (Illinois Institute of Technology), Rui Zhang (IBM Research)
