SCOPE
---------------
The International Symposium on Algorithmic Aspects of Cloud Computing 
(ALGOCLOUD) is an annual event aiming to tackle the diverse new topics 
in the emerging area of algorithmic aspects of computing and data 
management in modern cloud-based systems interpreted broadly so as to 
include edge- and fog-based systems, cloudlets, cloud micro-services, 
virtualization environments, decentralized systems, as well as dynamic 
networks.

ALGOCLOUD aims at bringing together researchers, students, and 
practitioners to present research activities and results on topics 
related to algorithmic, design, and development aspects of modern 
cloud-based systems. The 10th edition of this symposium (ALGOCLOUD 2025) 
is co-located with ALGO 2025, a leading international event of 
researchers working on algorithms and their engineering.

IMPORTANT DATES
---------------
Paper submission deadline: 1 July 2025
Notification to authors: 1 August 2025
Conference: 15-16 September 2025

CALL FOR PAPERS
---------------
ALGOCLOUD invites submissions covering theoretical, design, and 
implementation aspects of modern cloud-based systems. It specifically 
encourages novel algorithms related to cloud and edge computing, cloud 
architectures, and the cloud-edge continuum. Experimental work 
evaluating contemporary cloud-edge approaches and relevant applications 
is of particular interest. Additionally, ALGOCLOUD welcomes 
demonstration manuscripts showcasing successful system developments, as 
well as articles discussing experiences, use cases, and high-quality 
survey papers. Contributions may encompass a broad spectrum of 
algorithms, practices, and techniques for modelling, building, and 
evaluating operations and services across various systems, including 
virtualized infrastructures, cloud computing platforms, edge computing 
platforms, fog computing platforms, data centers, cloud storage options, 
cloud data management, non-traditional key-value stores on the cloud, 
HPC architectures, decentralized systems, and dynamic networks.

All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another 
journal or conference. The following paper categories are welcome:

Regular papers: Authors are invited to submit high-quality manuscripts 
reporting original unpublished research in the topics related to the 
symposium. A regular paper submission should clearly motivate the 
importance of the problem being addressed, discuss prior work and its 
relationship to the paper, explicitly and precisely state the paper’s 
key contributions, and outline the key technical ideas and methods used 
to achieve the main results. A regular paper submission should not 
exceed 12 pages, including title page and abstract but excluding 
references and an optional appendix. Authors should include all 
necessary details in their submission so that the Technical Program 
Committee (TPC) can judge correctness, importance and originality of 
their work. Any material (e.g., proofs or experimental results) omitted 
(from the main part of 12 pages)due to space limitations can be put into 
the optional appendix, which will be read at the TPC’s discretion. 
Regular papers will be allotted up to 20 pages in the proceedings.

Short papers: A short paper submission may present work-in-progress on a 
specific topic, or work appeared elsewhere but is worth publicizing it 
in the symposium, or a demonstration of a system or library, or an 
experience/use-case paper, or a vision paper. Authors should clearly 
motivate the importance of their contribution, discuss prior work and 
its relationship to the paper, and in general provide sufficient details 
in their submission so that the TPC can judge the quality and importance 
of their work. A short paper submission should be at least 2 and at most 
8 pages. Short papers will be allotted up to 8 pages in the proceedings.

Survey papers: A survey paper submission concerns the write-up of a 
high-quality survey paper on an emerging hot topic. Authors are asked to 
submit a proposal between 5 and 10 pages, that clearly motivates the 
importance of the topic, and contains the structure of the survey paper 
along with the most important references that will be critically 
reviewed and presented. If the proposal is accepted, then authors will 
be given sufficient time to prepare the full version of their survey 
paper that needs to pass a quality control check by the TPC, in order to 
be finally accepted and appear in the proceedings. Survey papers will be 
allotted up to 40 pages in the proceedings.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Algorithms for Decentralized Systems
Algorithms for Dynamic Networks
Cloud-Edge Continuum
IoT and Cloud Computing
Fog and Edge Computing
Mobile Edge Computing
Stream processing for Cloud-Edge continuum
In-network stream processing
Serverless Computing
Open datasets of Cloud-Edge workloads
Infrastructure optimizations for Cloud-Edge applications
Fault tolerance, reliability and resilience for Cloud-Edge Computing
AI & Machine Learning for Cloud-Edge
Federated Learning in Cloud-Edge Architectures
Resource Management and Scheduling
Resource Management in Mobile Edge Computing
Scheduling, orchestration and resource provisioning in Cloud-Edge Computing
Data Center and Infrastructure Management
Distributed Caching and Load Balancing

PROCEEDINGS
---------------
The conference proceedings will be published in the Springer-Nature 
Lecture Notes in Computer Science series.

PAPER SUBMISSION
---------------
All papers should be submitted electronically via the EasyChair 
submission system at:
Submissions website: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=algocloud2025


Submissions must be in the form of a single pdf file prepared using the 
LNCS latex templates and style files (available, together with 
Springer’s authors’ guidelines, from 
https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines). 
Springer’s proceedings LaTeX templates are also available on Overleaf 
(https://www.overleaf.com/latex/templates/springer-lecture-notes-in-computer-science/kzwwpvhwnvfj#.WsdHOy5uZpg).

By submitting a paper the authors acknowledge that in case of acceptance 
at least one of the authors must register at ALGO/ALGOCLOUD 2025 and 
present the paper (this holds for all types of papers, including 
accepted survey proposals).

Springer encourages authors to include their ORCIDs in their papers. In 
addition, the corresponding author of each paper, acting on behalf of 
all of the authors of that paper, must complete and sign a 
Consent-to-Publish form. The corresponding author signing the copyright 
form should match the corresponding author marked on the paper. Once the 
files have been sent to Springer, changes relating to the authorship of 
the papers cannot be made. Accepted papers will be included in the 
post-proceedings published by Springer in its Lecture Notes in Computer 
Science series.

AWARDS

Awards will be given to the best regular paper and the best student 
regular paper. A regular paper is eligible for the best student paper 
award if at least one of the authors is a full-time student (Bachelor, 
Master, or Ph.D.) at the time of submission and the student(s) must have 
made a major contribution to the paper. The TPC can decide to decline or 
to split the awards. Awards are sponsored by Springer.
