The Cloud computing paradigm has been tran sforming computing into the 5th utility wherein "computing utilities" are commoditized and delivered to consumers like traditional utilities such as water\, electricity\, gas\, and telephony. It offers infrastructure\, pla tform\, and software as services\, which are made available to consumers a s subscription-oriented services on a pay-as-you-go basis over the Interne t. Its use is growing exponentially with the continued development of new classes of applications such as AI-powered models (e.g.\, ChatGPT) and the mining of crypto currencies such as Bitcoins. To make Clouds pervasive\, Cloud application platforms need to offer (1) APIs and tools for rapid cre ation of scalable and elastic applications and (2) a runtime system for de ployment of applications on geographically distributed Data Centre infrast ructures (with Quantum computing nodes) in a seamless manner.\n\nThis talk will cover (a) 21st century vision of computing and identifies various em erging IT paradigms that make it easy to realize the vision of computing u tilities\; (b) innovative architecture for creating elastic Clouds integra ting edge resources and managed Clouds\, (c) Aneka 6G\, a 6th generation C loud Application Platform\, for rapid development of Big Data/AI applicati ons and their deployment on private/public Clouds driven by user requireme nts\, (d) experimental results on deploying Big Data/IoT applications in e ngineering\, health care (e.g.\, COVID-19)\, deep learning/Artificial inte lligence (AI)\, satellite image processing\, and natural language processi ng (mining COVID-19 literature for new insights) on elastic Clouds\, (e) Q FaaS: A Serverless Function-as-a-Service Framework for Quantum Computing\; and iQuantum Simulation Toolkit\, and (f) new directions for emerging res earch in Cloud and Quantum computing.\n\nBIO\nDr. Rajkumar Buyya is a Redm ond Barry Distinguished Professor and Director of the Quantum Cloud Comput ing and Distributed Systems (qCLOUDS) Laboratory at the University of Melb ourne\, Australia. He is also serving as the founding CEO of Manjrasoft\, a spin-off company of the University\, commercializing its innovations in Cloud Computing. He has authored over 850 publications and seven textbooks including "Mastering Cloud Computing" published by McGraw Hill\, China Ma chine Press\, and Morgan Kaufmann for Indian\, Chinese and international m arkets respectively. Dr. Buyya is one of the highly cited authors in compu ter science and software engineering worldwide (h-index=174\, g-index=385\ , i10-index=828\, and 162\,200+ citations). A bibliometric study by Stanfo rd University and Elsevier since 2019 (for six consecutive years)\, Dr. Bu yya is recognized as the Highest-Cited author in the Distributed Computing field worldwide. He graduated 60+ PhD students who are working in world-l eading research universities and high-tech companies such as Microsoft\, G oogle\, and IBM. He has been recognised as IEEE Fellow\, a "Web of Science Highly Cited Researcher" for seven times since 2016\, the "Best of the Wo rld" twice for research fields (in Computing Systems in 2019/2024 and Soft ware Systems in 2021/2022/2023) as well as "Lifetime Achiever" and "Supers tar of Research" in "Engineering and Computer Science" discipline twice (2 019 and 2021) by the Australian Research Review.\n\nSoftware technologies for Grid\, Cloud\, Fog\, Quantum computing developed under Dr.Buyya's lead ership have gained rapid acceptance and are in use at several academic ins titutions and commercial enterprises in 50+ countries around the world. Ma njrasoft's Aneka Cloud technology developed under his leadership has recei ved "Frost New Product Innovation Award". He served as founding Editor-in- Chief of the IEEE Transactions on Cloud Computing. He is currently serving as Editor-in-Chief of Software: Practice and Experience\, a long-standing journal in the field established in 1970. He has presented over 750 invit ed talks (keynotes\, tutorials\, and seminars) on his vision on IT Futures \, Advanced Computing technologies\, and Spiritual Science at internationa l conferences and institutions in Asia\, Australia\, Europe\, North Americ a\, and South America. He has recently been recognized as a Fellow of the Academy of Europe.
