Abstract

Rapid advances in architectures, networks, and systems and middleware technologies are leading to new concepts and platforms for computing, ranging from Clusters and Grids to Clouds and Datacenters&#046; The 14th Annual IEEE/ACM International Symposium in Cluster, Cloud, and Grid Computing (CCGrid 2014) is a forum bringing together international researchers, developers, and practitioners to present leading research activities and results on a broad range of topics related to these concepts and platforms,<br>and their applications&#046; The conference features keynotes, technical presentations, workshops, tutorials, and posters, as well as the SCALE challenge featuring live demonstrations&#046;<br>In 2014, CCGrid will return to the USA and be held in Chicago, the third largest city in the United States located on the southwest shore of Lake Michigan&#046; Chicago offers two major airports with direct flights available worldwide including Chicago O&#8242;Hare International Airport and Chicago Midway International Airport&#046; Weather in Chicago in late May averages 70&#8211;74 degrees Fahrenheit (21&#8211;23 degrees Celsius)&#046; The main conference will be held on May 27&#8211;29, 2014, with tutorials and affiliated workshops taking place on May 26, 2014&#046;<br>CCGrid 2014 will have a focus on important and immediate issues that are significantly influencing all aspects of cluster, cloud and grid computing&#046; Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:<br>Applications and Experiences: Applications to real and complex problems in science, engineering, business, and society; user studies; experiences with large&#8211;scale deployments, systems, or applications<br>Architecture and Accelerators: Design and use of emergent system architectures including but not limited to accelerators; multicores; power and cooling; security and reliability; high availability solutions<br>Autonomic Computing and Cyberinfrastructure: Self&#8211;managed behavior, models and technologies; autonomic paradigms and systems (control&#8211;based, bio&#8211;inspired, emergent, etc&#046;); bio&#8211;inspired optimizations and computing<br>Cloud Computing: Development, evaluation, and optimization of cloud architectures; software tools and techniques for clouds<br>Modeling and Evaluation of Performance and Energy: Prediction, modeling, and analysis; monitoring and evaluation tools; benchmarks and testbeds<br>Programming Models, Systems, and Fault&#8211;Tolerant Computing: Programming models, systems software and environments for cluster, cloud, and grid computing; fault&#8211;tolerant systems, programs and algorithms<br>Scheduling and Resource Management: Techniques to schedule jobs and resources on cluster, cloud, and grid computing platforms; SLA definition and enforcement<br>Storage and I/O Systems: System design and optimization for big data processing in cluster and cloud environment<br>
