into a single computing platform. Users can transparently access the resources/services without taking care about how many services the platform has and where the services will be located. Cloud computing can be seen as a natural next step from the grid-utility model. Some advanced technologies and issues are necessary to be investigated, such as platform, hybrid cloud architecture, service discovery and intelligent management, workflow, QoS issue, green issue, cost-model, and so on, to provide transparent, secure, and efficient service access behind the platform. In addition, a well-defined model and effective economics are useful for coordinating services/resources

scattered world-wide. A variety of valuable achievements and implementation experiences will drive sustained development and success in the topic.

This special issue aims to foster state-of-the-art research in the area of grid and cloud computing and is expected to focus on all aspects of cloud technologies and to present novel results and solutions to solve the various problems and challenges in grid and cloud platforms. The target audience of this special issue includes academics, researchers, engineers, professionals working on the relevant topics in design profession, manufacturing engineering, industrial engineering, computer science, information system, and the

graduate students who wish to learn and spot potential research opportunities.
