Cloud Computing 
Principles and Paradigms

The primary purpose of this book is to capture the state-of-the-art
in Cloud Computing technologies and applications. The book will
also aim to identify potential research directions and technologies
that will facilitate creation a global market-place of cloud
computing services supporting scientific, industrial, business, and
consumer applications. We expect the book to serve as a reference
for larger audience such as systems architects, practitioners,
developers, new researchers and graduate level students. This area
of research is relatively recent, and as such has no existing
reference book that addresses it.

This book will be a timely contribution to a field that is
gaining considerable research interest, momentum, and is expected
to be of increasing interest to commercial developers. The book is
targeted for professional computer science developers and graduate
students especially at Masters level. As Cloud Computing is
recognized as one of the top five emerging technologies that will
have a major impact on the quality of science and society over the
next 20 years, its knowledge will help position our readers at the
forefront of the field.
