First International Workshop on Workflow Models, Systems, Services and
Applications in the Cloud (CloudFlow) 2012
To be held in conjunction with the 26th IEEE International Parallel &
Distributed Processing Symposium (IPDPS) 2012, Shanghai, China, May
21-25, 2012.

Overview
Cloud computing is gaining tremendous momentum in both academia and
industry, more and more people are migrating their data and applications
into the Cloud. We have observed wide adoption of the MapReduce
computing model and the open source Hadoop system for large scale
distributed data processing, and a variety of ad hoc mashup techniques
that weave together Web applications. However, these are just first
steps towards managing complex task and data dependencies in the Cloud,
as there are more challenging issues such as large parameter space
exploration, data partitioning and distribution, scheduling and
optimization, smart reruns, and provenance tracking associated with
workflow execution.
Cloud needs structured and mature workflow technologies to handle such
issues, and vice versa, as Cloud offers unprecedented scalability to
workflow systems, and could potentially change the way we perceive and
conduct research and experiments. The scale and complexity of the
science and data analytics problems that can be handled can be greatly
increased on the Cloud, and the on-demand nature of resource allocation
on the Cloud will also help improve resource utilization and user
experience.
As Cloud computing provides a paradigm-shifting utility-oriented
computing model in terms of the unprecedented size of datacenter-level
resource pool and the on-demand resource provisioning mechanism, there
are lots of challenges in bringing Cloud and workflows together. We need
high level languages and computing models for large scale workflow
specification; we need to adapt existing workflow architectures into the
Cloud, and integrate workflow systems with Cloud infrastructure and
resources; we also need to leverage Cloud data storage technologies to
efficiently distribute data over a large number of nodes and explore
data locality during computation etc. We organize the CloudFlow workshop
as a venue for the workflow and Cloud communities to define models and
paradigms, present their state-of-the-art work, share their thoughts and
experiences, and explore new directions in realizing workflows in the Cloud.
Topics:
We welcome the submission of original work related to the topics listed
below, which include (in the context of Cloud):
Models and Languages for Large Scale Workflow Specification
Workflow Architecture and Framework
Large Scale Workflow Systems
Service Workflow
Workflow Composition and Orchestration
Workflow Migration into the Cloud
Workflow Scheduling and Optimization
Cloud Middleware in Support of Workflow
Virtualized Environment
Workflow Applications and Case Studies
Performance and Scalability Analysis
Peta-Scale Data Processing
Event Processing and Messaging
Real-Time Analytics
Provenance
Paper Submission
Authors are invited to submit papers with unpublished, original work.
The papers should not exceed 10 single-spaced double-column pages using
10-point size font on 8.5x11 inch pages (IEEE conference style),
including figures, tables, and references.
Paper submission should be done via the online CMT system, Microsoft’s
Academic Conference Management Service
(https://cmt.research.microsoft.com/CF2012) by midnight January 16th,
2012 Pacific Time. The final format should be in PDF. Proceedings of the
workshop will be published by the IEEE Digital Library and distributed
at the conference. Selected excellent work may be eligible for
additional post-conference publication as journal articles or book
chapters. Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the
authors to register and present the paper.
