3. Seattle Meeting Report • Attendees: Irena Bojanova (chair), Angela Burgess, Evan Butterfield, Dick Fairiley, Lars Jentsch, Chris Jensen, GargiKeeni, Dorian McClenahan, Margo McCall, Jim Moore, Chuck Walrad, Carrie Walsh, John Walz • Call-in: Wes Chou, Dennis Frailey, AtsuhiroGoto, Phil Laplante, Rick McGear, Carmen Salida, Alicia Stickley, JiaZhang • Coordinating CS and IEEE Cloud Computing Efforts (John Walz) • IEEE CCI (Angela Burgess) • Presentations and discussions • Meeting minutes have been distributed • CS CC STC introduction – in CS Volunteers Blog: http://computersocietyvolunteerblog.computer.org/2012/06/18/introducing-the-cs-cloud-computing-special-technical-community/

4. CS’s Two STC Models • Grass-root, community-initiated STCs • Developed from ground zero • Use GoogleApps • Self-managed, little to no staff engagement • Most current STCs are grassroots • Strategic, CS-initiated STCs • Heavily supported by staff, have budget • Coordinate with IEEE for additional budget • Use other platforms and leverage content management system • Report directly to the IEEE CS President • Cloud Computing, Life Sciences, Machine Learning and other Future Technologies Sub-Strategies will follow this model

5. CS CC STC • Topics of Interest • Cloud computing service/ deployment/architecture models • Service ecosystems • High performance computing • Big data • Cloud based mobility • Role - Community, CS, CCI Leadership • Associated IEEE CS entities • All CS Program Boards • Many CS Technical Committees • CC Testbed STC • 53 CC conferences (e.g. CLOUD) • 2 standards (P2301 , P2302) • Planned educational activities • Many Journals and Magazines • Proposed Transactions on CC • Proposed for Magazine on CC • Leadership Team • Chair • 15 volunteers; 11 staff experts • BoG “Angel” • Goals • Coordinate ongoing work on CC in Conferences, Standards, Education, Publishing • Create overall infrastructure := Web portal = Newsletter= Body of Knowledge = Testbed • Collaborate with IEEE CCI • First Tasks • Recruit volunteers • Determine CC assets and how to grow these assets 5

6. Assignments by Group All • Define Scope: (1) Novel applications -best practices, case studies, common APIs; (2) Get info from CLOUD keynotes - security expert + testbeds • Determine customer needs, prioritize, get the bigger ones done first ->Chris will share results • Determine which activities will support IEEE CCI; Which are only ours Note: We need to provide information and education through ED activities, WP, BoK, NL; for that: (1) find volunteers from CF,PB, ST; (2) Determine CC assets and how to grow these assets

7. Assignments by Group Conferences • Get the Amazon contact from CLOUD hands on activities – Jia(share with Testbed group) • Tag assets – 41 CS CC conferences – Carrie and Pavanshare with Web Portal group) Standards • Determine CS volunteers on Cloud standards projects (12/112 and 8/134 acting members on CC standards groups) – Margo and Chuck Education • Determine which courses/webinars will need use of testbed – Dennis and Don • Adjust SMEs database model for CS CC STC volunteers database – Dennis and Don Body of Knowledge • Recruit NIST authors – Chuck and Jeff • Dynamic development in stages -- 1 stage end of 2012

8. CS Conferences supporting Cloud Computing2011-12

9. Technical Sponsorship Request

10. Assignments by Group Publications • Determine CC keywords to tag and extract CC assets – Lars with help from Alicia =start with small group of volunteers =see what is hot in DL + some analytics people • Recruit volunteers to Tag assets – Wes and LJ • Ask Computer EIC Ron Vetter for two cloud inserts in Computer in 2013 – Lars Web Portal • Discuss with Sorel CS to get ownership of IEEE CCI WP – Angela and Irena • if not: work on WP structure – in 2 weeks start building the prototype – Phil and Rick? • Find out what search engine is used by Smart Grid – Theresa and Chris • Tag assets –delegated to CF and PB groups Newsletter • Discuss options on using current IEEE-CS newsletter processes – Margo • Explore Life Sciences NL – see how to provide CC resources on Liferay • Decide on format (subscription + pushing, dynamic,…) • Dynamic development in stages – 1st stage in a month

11. Assignments by Group Testbed • Determine with ED what resources would be needed and for which courses • Obtain resources for CC educational activities – Rick and Mike Also • TCs communication plan - honor each TC chair, ask for experts – Irena • NIC funding – how to apply – Angela to talk to Kathie

12. Questions • It is the High-Tech Wild, Wild West out there. • Although the CC marketplace is still chaotic, it is: • Exciting • Fast-growing • Full of opportunities
