As scientific applications become more data intensive, the management of data resources and dataflow between storages and compute resources is becoming the main bottleneck. Analyzing, visualizing, and disseminating these large data sets has become a major challenge and data intensive computing is now considered as the fourth paradigm in scientific discovery after theoretical, experimental, and computational science. =0A=0AThe 4th international workshop on Data-intensive Computing in the Clouds (DataCloud 2013) will provide the scientific community a dedicated forum for discussing new research, development, and deployment efforts in running data-intensive computing workloads on Cloud Computing infrastructures. The DataCloud 2013 workshop will focus on the use of cloud-based technologies to meet the new data intensive scientific challenges that are not well served by the current supercomputers, grids or compute-intensive clouds.
