Message from the TPC co-chairs

The Cloud Computing and Communications paradigm has defined unprecedented business models, promoting on-demand computing, resource allocation, elastic scaling, and the elimination of upfront costs. Such new paradigm has already changed the way we compute and communicate. To cope with technology challenges for the support of diverse services and applications, the IEEE Latin America Conference on Cloud Computing and Communications was created by the IEEE Communications Society (ComSoc), Latin America Region, with the support of the IEEE Cloud Computing Initiative. We thank Nim Cheung, from the IEEE Cloud Computing Initiative and former ComSoc President for his support in the creation of LatinCloud, as well as Abbas Jamalipour, ComSoc Vice President Conferences.
