First inspiring meeting for the Cloud Control project has been held in Umeå, after the Swedish Research Council granted a framework grant by 20 million SEK for a new project call Cloud Control.
The workshop is an open kick-off for the Cloud Control project, funded by a VR framework grant during 2013 – 2016. The workshop is open to project participants and people in the participants’ near vicinity, with whom we see potential for collaborations or other synergies.
The aim of the workshop is three‐fold. First and foremost, it aims at making people know each other, professionally and privately, to enhance the potential for future collaborations between project members in Lund and Umeå and between project members and other researchers.
Secondly, it aims at knowledge transfer across people’s fields of expertize by crash courses in cloud computing and control theory.
Thirdly, it aims at providing the fuel for new multi-disciplinary collaborations through a series of presentations and discussions on on‐going research on cloud datacenter management and control theory for computing systems.
This cross-disciplinary project builds on a collaboration between Umeå University and Lund University with complementing expertise on cloud management and control of computing systems. The collaboration addresses fundamental algorithmic challenges that in industrial collaborations have been identified as crucial.
The project is funded by a 20 million SEK framework grant from the Swedish research council (VR).
