Cloud Computing, as well as Cloud-inspired business models, enable on-demand access to a
shared pool of resources, namely computing, storage, networks, services, and applications.
With the advent of Cloud-based systems, cloud operators have been aiming at reliable,
secured, privacy-preserving and cost-efficient cloud design and management. As the Cloud
infrastructure aims at offering various IT resources as services, requirements of Cloud
applications vary based on the resources which are requested as services. Thus, the
resources may refer to heavy computation resources, massive storage resources,
high-capacity network resources and so on. The heterogeneity of cloud applications leads
to the challenge of holistic design of a robust Cloud system which can oversee and handle
the diverse needs of numerous types of applications. On the other hand, these challenges
enforce cooperation of various players in the Cloud system, each of which focuses on a
different segment such as network, computing, applications, and systems. The Second
International workshop on Cloud Computing Systems, Networks, and Applications (CCSNA-2014)
aims at the crossroads between scientists, researchers, practitioners and students from
diverse domains in Cloud computing research. The workshop aims at attracting contributions
of system and network design that can support existing and future applications and
services. Researchers are encouraged to submit original research contributions in all
major areas, which include, but not limited to:
*Cloud computing systems and networking- principles, designs, analyses, and performance

Submission Procedure
Submitted papers must represent original material which is not currently under review in
any other conference or journal and has not been previously published. Paper length should
not exceed five-page standard IEEE conference two-column format (including all text,
figures, and references). Please see the Author Information page for submission guidelines
in the IEEE GLOBECOM 2014 website http://www.ieee-globecom.org. All submitted papers will
go through a peer review process. All accepted and presented papers will be included in
the IEEE GLOBECOM 2014 proceedings and IEEE digital library. IEEE reserves the right to
exclude an accepted and registered but not presented paper from the IEEE digital library. 
Selected papers will be invited to be peer-reviewed for a special issue in IEEE Access and
another journal special issue.
