ICSE Cloud 2009

=Workshop on Software Engineering Challenges of Cloud Computing=
 * in conjunction with the 31st International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE)
 * May 23rd, 2009, Vancouver, Canada

Overview
Cloud Computing has emerged as a new paradigm for deploying, managing and offering services through a shared infrastructure. The projected benefits of cloud computing are very compelling both from a cloud consumer as well as a cloud services provider perspective: ease of deployment of services; low capital expenses and constant operational expenses leading to variable pricing schemes and reduced opportunity costs; leveraging the economies of scale for both services providers and users of the cloud. However, the actual realization of these perceived benefits are far from being well-achieved and pose a broad range of interesting questions.

Sean, you are brilliant for hvniag done this and making it accessible! I know this is something that MANY SLPs have been wanting to know and those of us that use apps can add to it AND find out from others. Have wanted a good central location for something like this for a while, but couldn't think how to do it. With your "star power" and collection of people following you this really has the possiblity of being a great list! Thanks!
