A Strategy for Advancing Research and Impact in New Computing Paradigms
share
In the world of Information Technology, new computing paradigms, driven by requirements of different classes of problems and applications, emerge rapidly. These new computing paradigms pose many new research challenges. Researchers from different disciplines are working together to develop innovative solutions addressing them. In newer research areas with many unknowns, creating roadmaps, enabling tools, inspiring technological and application demonstrators offer confidence and prove feasibility and effectiveness of new paradigm. Drawing on our experience, we share strategy for advancing the field and community building in new and emerging computing research areas. We discuss how the development simulators can be cost-effective in accelerating design of real systems. We highlight strategic role played by different types of publications, conferences, and educational programs. We illustrate effectiveness of elements of our strategy with a case study on progression of cloud computing paradigm.
