CSCI 8795 - Advanced Cloud Computing course is to introduce the underlying technologies that created the current cloud computing and infrastructure, then discuss the future of clouds by investigating the cutting-edge research that will soon be part of cloud ecosystems.
This course is designed for "graduate students" and is (most importantly) focused on "research project and seminar". We will quickly cover fundamental concepts of cloud computing with lectures, then move onto (more) research-oriented components (seminar and project) of this course.
This semester's theme is "performance measurement and management of microservices and cloud functions"

All students should read each assigned paper and submit the review before the scheduled lecture (9 a.m. of the day). Please note that the reading assignment will be started in the second week of the semester. The paper review should have three paragraphs:
Paragraph #1 | 1-2 sentences of problem statement and summary of the paper
|
---|---|
Paragraph #2 | pros and cons of the paper
|
Paragraph #3 | (at least) three questions for the paper discussion |
The presentation should be prepared for 30–40 minutes talk and clearly explain motivation, problem statement, related work (additional literature survey is a plus), the authors’ approach, evaluation, and discussion topics (e.g., pros and cons, further improvement, etc.).
Slide for the presentation must be emailed to the instructor by 9 p.m. before
the class day (if not, the student will lose 33% of the grade). Also, students can always
consult with the instructor for the presentation preparation.
To be announced.
An essential component of this course is a final research project. You
are expected to work on a cutting-edge research problem, which is relevant to the topic of this
course. You can work either individually or with other students (1 to 3 members). Project ideas have to be discussed with
the instructor. Tentative schedule for this project are as follows:

Papers in the schedule are accessible anywhere on UGA campus.
