      <div><b>Objective of the Book</b></div>
      <div>This book will investigate the use of service-oriented
        computing technologies to address supporting infrastructure of
        the Cloud, including new challenges in modelling and simulation
        of novel Clouds and SOAs. The overall objective of  this book is
        to present readers with methodologies, tools, technologies, and
        case studies of service-oriented computing in Cloud computing.</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div><b>Target of Audience</b></div>
      <div>Expected readers includes researchers, engineers and IT
        professionals who work in the fields of Cloud computing,
        distributed computing, cluster computing, Grid computing and
        high performance computing. The book could also be employed as
        the reference book for postgraduate students who study computer
        science.  <br>
