Clouds provide on-demand access to computing utilities, an abstraction of unlimited computing resources, and support for on-demand scale up, scale down and scale out. Clouds are also rapidly joining more traditional computing platforms as viable platforms for scientific exploration and discovery, and education. As a result, understanding application formulations and usage modes that are meaningful in such a hybrid infrastructure, what are the fundamental conceptual and technological challenges, and how applications can effectively utilize it, is critical.<o:p></o:p></div><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Cambria, serif; text-align: justify; "> </p><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Cambria, serif; text-align: justify; ">The goal of this special issue of CiSE is to explore how Clouds platforms and abstractions, either by themselves or in combination with other platforms, can be effectively used to support real-world science and engineering applications.
