2012年4月13日下午，挪威Stavanger大学Chunming Rong教授访问重点实验室，在成功楼603做了题为“Cloud Computing Trends and Applications”的报告。

 报告摘要:

       “Cloud” is a common metaphor for an Internet accessible infrastructure (e.g. data storage and computing hardware) which is hidden from users. Cloud Computing makes data truly mobile and a user can simply access a chosen cloud with any internet accessible device. In Cloud Computing, IT-related capabilities are provided as services, accessible without requiring detailed knowledge of the underlying technology. Thus, many mature technologies are used as components in Cloud Computing, but still there are many unresolved and open problems. The Cloud Computing Association ( www.cloudcom.org ) aims to bring together researchers who work on cloud computing and related technologies.
