This special session explores this area and invites exploratory papers as well as mature research contributions.

Possible topics include but are not limited to:

Performance and experience using clouds and Web 2.0 to support sensors or collaboration

Relation of Grids and Clouds in their application to sensors or collaboration

Data driven applications and use of emerging technologies like Mashups, gadgets and Hadoop

Social Networking and Virtual Organizations

Security and Trust issues in Clouds and Web 2.0
