The Cloud Forward 2015 Conference (cf2015.holacloud.eu), hosted by the Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa from 6 to 8 October 2015, brought together experts from industry and academia to consider the future of cloud computing. Organised under the auspices of EGI (European Grid Infrastructure) MISE (Ministero Italiano dello Sviluppo Economico), Regione ToscanaCNR (Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche), APRE (Agency for the Promotion of European Research), Municipality of PisaFondazione Sistema Toscana (FST), and University of Pisa, in the framework of the HOLA Cloud project (www.holacloud.eu), the event aimed to review experiences and discuss future directions to overcome problems and provide new opportunities for the utilisation of leading edge cloud computing by industry and academia and for ICT developers providing innovative solutions.

 

Cloud Forward 2015 took place in friendship with Internet Festival.

 

The conference provided the scientific community a dedicated forum for discussing innovative architectures and services in the area of distributed computing (through the Distributed and CLOUD computing track), as well as new technologies beyond CLOUDs, requirements and future goals (through the COMPLETE computing track). It focused both on research and development efforts in the domain of CLOUDs and in future scenarios and technologies that exploit CLOUD computing as a utility, such as Internet of Things.

Authors were invited to submit abstracts for poster and paper presentations related to the topics of interest of the Cloud Forward 2015 Conference: From Distributed to Complete Computing.
