The 2nd International Workshop on Secure Mobile Cloud Computing

Cloud computing is recognized as a cost-effective paradigm in outsourcing infrastructure, platforms, and software. The problems related to privacy and security are still challenging especially in mobile cloud systems. Cloud end-users are now using mobile systems for applications that fall under the data-intensive paradigm, such as Skyline queries, streaming information relays, and crowdsourced disaster management. However, the above paradigm shift has opened newer research directions in security, data interoperability, sustainable software development, and many other areas.

This workshop primarily encompasses practical approaches that advance research in all aspects of handling large amounts of data in a secure manner in the cloud, mobile nodes, and cloud-connected Edge clusters such as in MANETs and Wireless Sensor Networks. Successful contributions may range from advanced technologies, applications, and innovative solutions for secure clouds, to the development of methods, conceptual and theoretical models related to secure management, monitoring, scheduling, and resource allocation.

GUARD Consortium Partner NASK will partake in this project meeting in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia to promote the GUARD Project.
