*****************************************************
International Workshop on Cloud Computing and IoT Applications and Security (CIAS2016)
(http://computing.derby.ac.uk/cias2016)
In conjunction with The 9th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Utility and Cloud Computing (UCC2016) December 6-9,
2016, Shanghai, China
*****************************************************
Cloud computing and Internet of Things (IoT) has transformed our daily life. Cloud computing represents a major shift
in the way we develop and deploy systems and services. It has many benefits such as better utilization of hardware
resources by the ease of deployment, scalability, reduced costs, increased efficiency, and high availability of
services. IoT allows a pervasive monitoring and interacting with our living environment. IoT and cloud can work
together to provide better health services, education, industrial and environmental controls. Security and privacy
are essential for the success of IoT and Cloud Computing.
