Advances in Clouds - Research in Future Cloud Computing
The Software & Service Architectures, Infrastructures and Engineering Unit (Information Society & Media Directorate-General) have produced a report entitled "Advances in Clouds - Research in Future Cloud Computing", edited by Keith Jeffery, Lutz Schubert. This report considers the current, fast-moving, situation and identifies research topics which could provide Europe with the know-how to be world-leading in Cloud Computing. The report can be found here:
Should Europe build its own cloud factories?
Very interesting post submitted by paul.miller on Thu 2012-04-19 asking if Europe should build its own Cloud technology. It made me think about the question "Should Europe build its own cloud factories?"

Big Data Research Challenges
Let me share the Barcelona Supercomputing Center view about Big Data Challenges, presented in a recent meeting. Unfortunately it is written in Spanish. I will translate it as soon I found a time slot for it. Anyway, I include the link and the headlines. I hope you find it useful.
Data is more important than ever, but the exponential growth of data (plus Variety and Velocity as Paul.Miller introduced in a previous post) has overwhelmed most company's ability to manage (and monetize it). Our vision to overcome this is advance research in four areas:
