We will design a short hands-on workshop to introduce how to use cloud computing based on private or public cloud of end users' choices. Participants are also encouraged to bring a light weight problem to be running on the cloud in a hack-a-thorn fashion. The workshop is organized by CC, P&S, IT&I, and supported by the NSF Spatiotemporal Innovation Center with it's hybrid cloud service and Amazon. This session could accomodate 25 participants with a first come first serve mechanism. Bringing your own laptop is required and please bring your application (ideas) to be put on the cloud. Please indicate your participants by signing up at sched https://2016esipsummermeeting.sched.org/event/6uHO/cloud-computing-hands.... 1. Brief Intro to Cloud Computing (5-10 minutes) 2.
