Hosted by IEEE Signal Processing Society, San Diego Chapter

Organized under the IEEE San Diego Section technical program.

The twenty-first-century digital landscape is being reshaped by the convergence of Cloud computing, Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and emerging Quantum computing paradigms. Cloud computing has evolved into a utility model, delivering infrastructure, platforms, and software as scalable, on-demand services over distributed global systems.

This talk presents a forward-looking vision of next-generation computing systems and explores key architectural innovations for building elastic, distributed, and intelligent cloud platforms. It covers integration of edge resources with large-scale data centers, enabling seamless deployment of AI and data-intensive applications.

The session will highlight Aneka 6G, a next-generation cloud application platform supporting Big Data and AI workloads, along with real-world deployments across domains such as healthcare, satellite imaging, and natural language processing.

The talk will also introduce emerging frameworks including QFaaS (Quantum Function-as-a-Service) and the iQuantum Simulation Toolkit, outlining how quantum computing can be integrated into modern cloud infrastructures.

The presentation concludes with insights into future research directions in cloud and quantum computing, focusing on scalable, intelligent, and hybrid computing environments.

 

The session will include a live Q&A with the speaker.
