Abstract of communication: 

Elasticity is seen as one of the main characteristics of Cloud Computing today. Is elasticity simply scalability on steroids? In this talk I will discuss the main principles of elasticity, present a fresh look at this problem, and examine how to design future elastic systems by integrating people, things (IoT), and software services into one composite system, which can be modeled, programmed, and deployed on a large scale in an elastic way.
