Cloud Computing is a concept in which a network of devices, located inremote locations, is integrated to perform operations like data collection, processing, data profiling and data storage. In this context, resource allocation and taskscheduling are important processes which must be managed based on the requirements of a user. In order to allocate the resources effectively, hybrid cloud isemployed since it is a capable solution to process large-scale consumer applications in a pay-by-use manner. Hence, the model is to be designed as a profit-driven framework to reduce cost and make span. With this motivation, the currentresearch work develops a Cost-Effective Optimal Task Scheduling Model(CEOTS). A novel algorithm called Target-based Cost Derivation (TCD) modelis used in the proposed work for hybrid clouds. Moreover, the algorithm workson the basis of multi-intentional task completion process with optimal resourceallocation. The model was successfully simulated to validate its effectivenessbased on factors such as processing time, make span and efficient utilization ofvirtual machines. The results infer that the proposed model outperformed theexisting works and can be relied in future for real-time applications.展开更多

This paper presents an improved CP-ABE (ciphertext-policy attribute-based encryption) scheme to construct an encrypted data access control solution that is suitable for mobile users in hybrid cloud system. In our improvement, we split the original decryption keys into a control key, a secret key and a set of transformation keys. The private cloud managed by the organization administrator takes charge of updating the transformation keys using the control key. It helps to handle the situation of flexible access management and attribute alteration. Meanwhile, the mobile user's single secret key remains unchanged as well as the ciphertext even if the data user's attribute has been revoked. In addition, we modify the access control list through adding the attributes with corresponding control key and transformation keys so as to manage user privileges depending upon the system version. Finally, the analysis shows that our scheme is secure, flexible and efficient to be applied in mobile hybrid cloud computing.展开更多

However, as demands for large-size files grow rapidly, it is a challenge to support high speed downloading experience simultaneously in different swarms with limited cloud bandwidth resource in such system. Therefore, it requires an optimized cloud bandwidth allocation to improve overall downloading experience of users. In this paper, we propose a system performance model which characterizes the relationship between cloud uploading bandwidth and user download speed. Based on the model, we study the cloud uploading bandwidth allocation, with the goal of optimizing user＇s quality of experience （QoE） that mainly depends on downloading rate of desired contents. Furthermore, to decrease the computation complexity, we put forward a heuristic algorithm to approximate the optimized solution. Simulation results show that our heuristic algorithm can obtain higher user＇s QoE as compared with two typical bandwidth allocation algorithms.展开更多

The capacity comes from the cloud computing system itself, which can be likened to a virtualized resource pool that supports virtualization applications as well as load migration. Based on the existing technologies, the paper proposes a resource virtualization model （RVM） utilizing a hybrid-graph structure. The hybrid-graph structure can formally represent the critical entities such as private clouds, nodes within the private clouds, and resource including its type and quantity. It also provides a clear description of the logical relationship and the dynamic expansion among them as well. Moreover, based on the RVM, a resource converging algorithm and a maintaining algorithm of the resource pool which can timely reflect the dynamic variation of the private cloud and resource are presented. The algorithms collect resources and put them into the private cloud resource pools and global resource pools, and enable a real-time maintenance for the dynamic variation of resource to ensure the continuity and reliability. Both of the algorithms use a queue structure to accomplish functions of resource converging. Finally, a simulation platform of cloud computing is designed to test the algorithms proposed in the paper. The results show the correctness and the reliability of the algorithms.展开更多

A significant question is still unanswered that how to bring the Citizens and Government bodies closer for alleviating the aforementioned issues and challenges of existing government system services. This research paper aims to investigate the issues and challenges in the current status of Governance and partial E-Governance systems which encompass the computerization or automation process. The research designs a cloud framework for effective delivery of citizen centric services in general and Ethiopia as a specific case study. After rigorous analysis of prior research efforts, along with primary survey and interview, it was clearly observed that cloud computing can be an alternative instrumental for significant transformation of governmental service delivery. The research paper used a mix of exploratory and constructive research design and methodology with qualitative & quantitative data analysis approach. Finally, a Cloud Based E-Governance (CBEG) Framework is designed for the delivery of Ethiopian Citizen Centric Services. The validation, evaluation and acceptance test of the framework proves that the revealed knowledge can provide a significant transformation towards the betterment of the E Governance Services Delivery Systems.展开更多

The concept is defined as a computing environment allowing for remote outsourcing of storage and computing resources. A hybrid cloud environment is an excellent example of cloud computing. Specifically, the hybrid system provides organizations with increased scalability and control over their data and support for a remote workforce. However, hybrid cloud systems are expensive as organizations operate different infrastructures while introducing complexity to the organization’s activities. Data security is critical among the most vital concerns that have resulted from the use of cloud computing, thus, affecting the rate of user adoption and acceptance. This article, borrowing from the hybrid cloud computing system, recommends combining traditional and modern data security systems. Traditional data security systems have proven effective in their respective roles, with the main challenge arising from their recognition of context and connectivity. Therefore, integrating traditional and modern designs is recommended to enhance effectiveness, context, connectivity, and efficiency.展开更多

Also, we will go through the future benefits of cloud computing and the upcoming possible challenges we will have. Intext Cloud, performance, cloud computing, architecture, scale-up, and big data are all terms used in this context. Cloud computing offers a wide range of architectural configurations, including the number of processors, memory, and nodes. Cloud computing has already changed the way we store, process, and access data, and it is expected to continue to have a significant impact on the future of information technology. Cloud computing enables organizations to scale their IT resources up or down quickly and easily, without the need for costly hardware upgrades. This can help organizations to respond more quickly to changing business needs and market conditions. By moving IT resources to the cloud, organizations can reduce their IT infrastructure costs and improve their operational efficiency. Cloud computing also allows organizations to pay only for the resources they use, rather than investing in expensive hardware and software licenses. Cloud providers invest heavily in security and compliance measures, which can help to protect organizations from cyber threats and ensure regulatory compliance. Cloud computing provides a scalable platform for AI and machine learning applications, enabling organizations to build and deploy these technologies more easily and cost-effectively. A task, an application, and its input can take up to 20 times longer or cost 10 times more than optimal. Cloud products’ ready adaptability has resulted in a paradigm change. Previously, an application was optimized for a specific cluster;however, in the cloud, the architectural configuration is tuned for the workload. The evolution of cloud computing from the era of mainframes and dumb terminals has been significant, but there are still many advancements to come. As we look towards the future, IT leaders and the companies they serve will face increasingly complex challenges in order to stay competitive in a constantly evolving cloud computing landscape. Additionally, it will be crucial to remain compliant with existing regulations as well as new regulations that may emerge in the future. It is safe to say that the next decade of cloud computing will be just as dramatic as the last where many internet services are becoming cloud-based, and huge enterprises will struggle to fund physical infrastructure. Cloud computing is significantly used in business innovation and because of its agility and adaptability, cloud technology enables new ways of working, operating, and running a business. The service enables users to access files and applications stored in the cloud from anywhere, removing the requirement for users to be always physically close to actual hardware. Cloud computing makes the connection available from anywhere because they are kept on a network of hosted computers that carry data over the internet. Cloud computing has shown to be advantageous to both consumers and corporations. To be more specific, the cloud has altered our way of life. Overall, cloud computing is likely to continue to play a significant role in the future of IT, enabling organizations to become more agile, efficient, and innovative in the face of rapid technological change. This is likely to drive further innovation in AI and machine learning in the coming years.展开更多

The hybrid-graph structure can formally represent the critical entities such as private clouds, nodes within the private clouds, and resource including its type and quantity. It also provides a clear description of the logical relationship and the dynamic expansion among them as well. Moreover, based on the RVM, a resource converging algorithm and a maintaining algorithm of the resource pool which can timely reflect the dynamic variation of the private cloud and resource are presented. The algorithms collect resources and put them into the private cloud resource pools and global resource pools, and enable a real-time maintenance for the dynamic variation of resource to ensure the continuity and reliability. Both of the algorithms use a queue structure to accomplish functions of resource converging. Finally, a simulation platform of cloud computing is designed to test the algorithms proposed in the paper. The results show the correctness and the reliability of the algorithms.
文摘In the modern arena, the Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) have been playing a vital role in every walks of our day to day life. In order to enhance the ICT capacity and align with the global technology transformations, the developing countries have started introducing the computerization and automation processes at different levels of the governments. The several research studies revealed that the existing legacy of governance system and their services in current state have several issues and challenges in terms of timeliness, cost of services, delay in service delivery, time-bound availability of services (24/7/365), inefficiency services, ease of service and discomforts, poor service collaboration, absence of responsiveness, and limited security of sensitive information/documents. A significant question is still unanswered that how to bring the Citizens and Government bodies closer for alleviating the aforementioned issues and challenges of existing government system services. This research paper aims to investigate the issues and challenges in the current status of Governance and partial E-Governance systems which encompass the computerization or automation process. The research designs a cloud framework for effective delivery of citizen centric services in general and Ethiopia as a specific case study. After rigorous analysis of prior research efforts, along with primary survey and interview, it was clearly observed that cloud computing can be an alternative instrumental for significant transformation of governmental service delivery. The research paper used a mix of exploratory and constructive research design and methodology with qualitative & quantitative data analysis approach. Finally, a Cloud Based E-Governance (CBEG) Framework is designed for the delivery of Ethiopian Citizen Centric Services. The validation, evaluation and acceptance test of the framework proves that the revealed knowledge can provide a significant transformation towards the betterment of the E Governance Services Delivery Systems.
文摘Cloud computing is the new norm within business entities as businesses try to keep up with technological advancements and user needs. The concept is defined as a computing environment allowing for remote outsourcing of storage and computing resources. A hybrid cloud environment is an excellent example of cloud computing. Specifically, the hybrid system provides organizations with increased scalability and control over their data and support for a remote workforce. However, hybrid cloud systems are expensive as organizations operate different infrastructures while introducing complexity to the organization’s activities. Data security is critical among the most vital concerns that have resulted from the use of cloud computing, thus, affecting the rate of user adoption and acceptance. This article, borrowing from the hybrid cloud computing system, recommends combining traditional and modern data security systems. Traditional data security systems have proven effective in their respective roles, with the main challenge arising from their recognition of context and connectivity. Therefore, integrating traditional and modern designs is recommended to enhance effectiveness, context, connectivity, and efficiency.
文摘The purpose of this paper is to provide a better knowledge of the cloud computing as well as to suggest relevant research paths in this growing field. Also, we will go through the future benefits of cloud computing and the upcoming possible challenges we will have. Intext Cloud, performance, cloud computing, architecture, scale-up, and big data are all terms used in this context. Cloud computing offers a wide range of architectural configurations, including the number of processors, memory, and nodes. Cloud computing has already changed the way we store, process, and access data, and it is expected to continue to have a significant impact on the future of information technology. Cloud computing enables organizations to scale their IT resources up or down quickly and easily, without the need for costly hardware upgrades. This can help organizations to respond more quickly to changing business needs and market conditions. By moving IT resources to the cloud, organizations can reduce their IT infrastructure costs and improve their operational efficiency. Cloud computing also allows organizations to pay only for the resources they use, rather than investing in expensive hardware and software licenses. Cloud providers invest heavily in security and compliance measures, which can help to protect organizations from cyber threats and ensure regulatory compliance. Cloud computing provides a scalable platform for AI and machine learning applications, enabling organizations to build and deploy these technologies more easily and cost-effectively. A task, an application, and its input can take up to 20 times longer or cost 10 times more than optimal. Cloud products’ ready adaptability has resulted in a paradigm change. Previously, an application was optimized for a specific cluster;however, in the cloud, the architectural configuration is tuned for the workload. The evolution of cloud computing from the era of mainframes and dumb terminals has been significant, but there are still many advancements to come. As we look towards the future, IT leaders and the companies they serve will face increasingly complex challenges in order to stay competitive in a constantly evolving cloud computing landscape. Additionally, it will be crucial to remain compliant with existing regulations as well as new regulations that may emerge in the future. It is safe to say that the next decade of cloud computing will be just as dramatic as the last where many internet services are becoming cloud-based, and huge enterprises will struggle to fund physical infrastructure. Cloud computing is significantly used in business innovation and because of its agility and adaptability, cloud technology enables new ways of working, operating, and running a business. The service enables users to access files and applications stored in the cloud from anywhere, removing the requirement for users to be always physically close to actual hardware. Cloud computing makes the connection available from anywhere because they are kept on a network of hosted computers that carry data over the internet. Cloud computing has shown to be advantageous to both consumers and corporations. To be more specific, the cloud has altered our way of life. Overall, cloud computing is likely to continue to play a significant role in the future of IT, enabling organizations to become more agile, efficient, and innovative in the face of rapid technological change. This is likely to drive further innovation in AI and machine learning in the coming years.
