Ad-Hoc Committee on Cloud Communication and Networking @OpCom Marcus Brunner NEC

Slide 2

Goal and Objective coordinate ComSoc's efforts in various communications/networking issues related to Cloud Computing Several of ComSoc existing Technical Committees likely have an interest in this topic. Therefore, the members of this new committee will include volunteers from the appropriate/interested Technical Committees. Ad-hoc TC is working on issues related to Cloud Communications/Networking (including topics such as security, management, etc
