Introduction to the Proceedings of the 5th International Workshop on Personalization in Cloud and Service Computing (PCS) 2011

Abstract

Following the success of the International Workshop on Personalization in Grid and Service Computing (PGSC. Inaugural: Urumchi, Xinjiang, China; 2nd: Shenzhen, China; 3rd: Lanzhou, Gansu, China; 4th: Nanjing, Jiangsu, China), the 5th InternationalWorkshop on Personalization in Cloud and Service Computing (PCS) in 2011 was held in conjunction with the WISE 2011 conference in Sydney, Australia. This year, we engineered a brand new name for the workshop and expanded the initial research areas in service and grid computing to embrace the rapidly growing cloud computing research community. © 2013 Springer-Verlag.
