Services University (Summer
School on Services Computing)
Together
with the 2010 6th IEEE World Congress on Services (SERVICES 2010),
Services Society proudly announces the 2010 Summer School on Services
Computing (SU-2010). SU-2010 is a one-day forum, sponsored by
Services Society. IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Services
Computing (TC-SVC) provides technical co-sponsorship to SU-2010.
SU-2010 will be held on July 5, 2010 (Monday). In this Summer School,
Services Computing body of knowledge areas are presented to create,
deploy and manage cloud computing platforms and applications.
SU-2010 is now calling for participation. Eligible applicants
shall be (1) professors in universities whose teaching and research
areas are related to Cloud Computing, Service-Oriented Architecture
(SOA), Web services, Web technology, Software Engineering, IT, and
management or (2) industry practitioners who have experiences in
services software design and development and are willing to get more
involved in Services Computing community.
BACKGROUND
Services now account for more than half of
the U.S. economy and are rapidly adopted by most of the countries in
the world. As a foundational discipline in the modern services
industry, Services Computing addresses how to enable IT technology to
help people perform business services more efficiently and
effectively.
Services Society
(www.servicessociety.org),
a professional organization, is promoting research and technical
collaboration on Services Computing (SC) based Modern Services Science
among academia and industrial professionals. Services Society is a
dedicated not-for-profit organization (501(c)(3) status has been
approved by IRS, USA) of promoting “Services
University” program worldwide with collaborations with other
organizations such as IEEE
Computer Society Technical Committee on Services Computing
(TCSVC), which was founded in 2003. Since then, IEEE TC-SVC has
sponsored a series of flagship international conferences including: IEEE International Conference on
Web Services (ICWS), IEEE
International Conference on Services Computing (SCC), IEEE Asia
Pacific Services Computing Conference (APSCC), European
Conference on Web Services (ECOWS), and World
Congress on Services (SERVICES). In 2008, IEEE Transactions on Services
Computing (TSC) was formally launched. IEEE International
Conference on Cloud Computing (CLOUD) was also launched in 2009.
IIn
order to further Services Computing education in universities so as to
educate qualified professionals, a pilot Services University (SU)
program was launched at the 2007 IEEE Congress on Services (SERVICES
2007) in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. The SU program comprises three
major activities: Services Computing Schools, certificate development,
and education methodology summit. In 2008, we successfully organized
the Summer School on Services Computing in July in Hawaii and the Fall
School on Services Computing in September in Beijing. In July 2009, we
successfully organized the Summer School on Services Computing in Los
Angeles, USA. In Sept. 2009, the Fall School on Cloud Computing was
conducted in Bangalore, India.
OBJECTIVES
The central goal of SU-2010 is
to help educators teach Services Computing courses in their institutes,
while helping industry practitioners obtain comprehensive understanding
of the emerging field. The Summer School aims to help participants
understand the overall picture of Cloud Computing in the field of
Services Computing, its rationale, foundations, architectural models,
and industry-oriented applications and successful cases. Specially,
some major solution architectures, enabling technologies and innovative
research methods are captured in the whole lifecycle of services
innovation research, including business componentization, services
modeling, services creation, services realization, services annotation,
services deployment, services discovery, services composition, services
delivery, service-to-service collaboration, services monitoring,
services optimization, as well as services management.
Participants of this Summer School will obtain a comprehensive
understanding of the "Services Computing" curriculum initiative and of
research advancement of Cloud Computing as its scalable service
delivery and consumption platform. Using the recommended text book
"Services Computing" as the basic materials, this Summer School aims to
help participating educators and consultants offer "Services
Computing"-related courses independently. Other teaching materials will
be provided and studied as well, including lecture notes and slides
associated with the book.
