Meetings
The RG Cloud Working Group meets every fourth week via teleconference while sub-groups meet on demand. Representatives of the member organizations also meet face-to-face at conferences and workshops sponsored or organized by the Research Group. A regular annual meeting is normally organized as part of a scientific workshop, namely Hot Topics on Cloud Computing Performance (HotCloudPerf)co-located usually with the ACM/SPEC International Conference on Performance Engineering (ICPE).
For more information on how to join the meetings please see the How to Join the RG Cloud Working Groupsection.
