CONTEXT AND SCOPE

Cloud Computing de= livers computational resources on-demand as services
that are commoditiz= ed and delivered analogous to traditional utilities such as
electricity,= gas, water and telephony. Cloud service offerings for compute,
storage = and communication resources as well as for hosted software and data
are = growing at a tremendous rate, and it is essential to understand how to

offer. Understanding how these models could be used to provide utility= for
users, intermediary brokers (aggregators) and providers is also an = area of
active research. UCC is the premier IEEE/ACM conference covering= all areas
related to Cloud Computing as a Utility and provides an inter= national forum
for leading researchers and practitioners in this importa= nt and growing field.
