Call for Abstracts Cloud computing is fast becoming the most important platform for research. Scientists today need vast computing resources to collect, share, manipulate, and explore massive data sets as well as to build and deploy new services for research. Cloud computing has the potential to advance research discoveries by making data and computing resources readily available at unprecedented economy of scale and nearly infinite scalability. To realize the full promise of cloud computing for research, however, one must think about the cloud as a holistic platform for creating new services, new experiences, and new methods to pursue research, teaching and scholarly communication. This goal presents a broad range of interesting questions.

We invite extended abstracts that illustrate the role of cloud computing across a variety of research and curriculum development areas---including computer science, earth sciences, healthcare, humanities, life sciences, and social sciences---that highlight how new techniques and methods of research in the cloud may solve distinct challenges arising in those diverse areas. Please include a bio (150 words max) and a brief abstract (300 words max) of a 30-minute short talk on a topic that describes practical experiences, experimental results, and vision papers.

Please submit your abstract by February 10, 2010 to cloud...@microsoft.com
Invited talks will be announced on February 18, 2010
