The diversity of Cloud computing services is challenging the application developers as various and non-standard interfaces are provided for these services. Few middleware solutions were developed until now to ...
In this paper we present a novel Code Execution Framework that can execute code of different problem solving environments (PSE), such as MATLAB, R and Octave, in parallel. In many e-Science domains different s...
Cloud computing services rely on electricity to power compute-servers, network equipment, cooling systems, and other supporting infrastructure. As such, energy costs are a substantial outgoing to public provid...
Trust is a critical factor in cloud computing; in present practice it depends largely on perception of reputation, and self assessment by providers of cloud services. We begin this paper with a survey of exist...
The Architecture, Engineering & Construction (AEC) sector is a highly fragmented, data intensive, project based industry, involving a number of very different professions and organisations. Projects carried ou...
Urban flood risk modelling is a highly topical example of intensive computational processing. Such processing is increasingly required by a range of organisations including local government, engineering consul...
The performance of Cloud systems is a key concern, but has typically been assessed by the comparison of relatively few Cloud systems, and often on the basis of just one or two features of performance. In this ...
Data management and sharing is the challenge being faced by all the IT majors today. Adds over it, is the challenge faced by the cloud service providers in terms of multi-tenancy of data and its efficient retr...
The aim of this paper is to propose the use of a cloud-based integrity management service coupled with a trustworthy client component – in the form of the Trust Extension Device (TED) platform – as a means to to ...
We describe the research undertaken in the six month JISC/EPSRC funded My Private Cloud project, in which we built a demonstration cloud file storage service that allows users to login to it, by using their ex...
In this paper we report upon the cloud-based solution that we designed and implemented for space situational awareness. We begin by introducing the background to the work and to the area of space situational a...
With the growing popularity of cloud-based data centres as the enterprise IT platform of choice, there is a need for effective management strategies capable of maintaining performance within SLA and QoS parame...
Cloud computing takes away much of the need to plan future IT demands from the consumer, and puts it in the hands of the provider. Consumers don’t need to give advance notice to start or terminate virtual mach...
In cloud computing environments guarantees, consistency mechanisms, (shared) state and transactions are frequently traded for robustness, scalability and performance. Based on this challenge we present CMQ, a ...
Cloud computing offers massively scalable, elastic resources (e.g., data, computing power, and services) over the internet from remote data centres to the consumers. The growing market penetration, with an eve...
Autonomic Computing introduces autonomy in software systems by making them capable of self- management and self-healing. Autonomic Clouds have emerged as a result of the application of autonomic techniques to ...
This special issue presents extended and revised versions of distinguished papers presented at the security & privacy track of the 3rd IEEE International Conference on Cloud Computing Technology and Science (I...
This article presents an approach to handle compromised components in the OpenStack Infrastructure-as-a-Service cloud environment. We present two specific use cases; a compromised service process and the intro...
Cloud computing has the potential to provide low-cost, scalable computing, but cloud security is a major area of concern. Many organizations are therefore considering using a combination of a secure internal c...
With looming patent cliffs, resulting in no patent protections for several block buster drugs, several Life sciences organizations are looking at ways to reduce the costs of drug discovery. They are looking to...
This article describes how a Redundant Array of Independent Net-storages (RAIN) can be deployed for confidentiality control in Cloud Computing. The RAIN approach splits data into segments and distributes segme...
A common approach in Infrastructure-as-a-Service Clouds or virtualized Grid computing is to provide virtual machines to customers to execute their software on remote resources. Giving full superuser permission...
The development of cloud computing services is speeding up the rate in which the organizations outsource their computational services or sell their idle computational resources. Even though migrating to the cl...
Given the rapid expansion in cloud computing in the past few years, there is a driving necessity of having cloud workloads running on a backend servers analyzed and characterized for performance and power cons...
Classic intrusion detection mechanisms are not flexible enough to cope with cloud specific characteristics such as frequent infrastructure changes. This makes them unable to address new cloud specific security...
Recommender systems use, amongst others, a mechanism called collaborative filtering (CF) to predict the rating that a user will give to an item given the ratings of other items provided by other users. While r...
In context-aware systems, the contextual information about human and computing situations has a strong temporal aspect i.e. it remains valid for a period of time. This temporal property can be exploited in cac...
Increasingly infrastructure providers are supplying the cloud marketplace with storage and on-demand compute resources to host cloud applications. From an application user’s point of view, it is desirable to i...
Cloud computing data centres, due to their housing of powerful ICT equipment, are high energy consumers and therefore accountable for large quantities of emissions. Therefore, energy saving strategies applicab...
Energy conservation has become a critical issue in modern system electronic devices. Energy wastage in electronic devices occurs in both hardware and software components. Software drives the hardware thus deci...
Cloud computing has dramatically reshaped the whole IT industry in recent years. With the transition from IPv4 to IPv6, services running in Cloud computing will face problems associated with IPv6 addressing: t...
One of the major benefits of cloud computing is the ability for users to access resources on a pay-as-you go basis, thereby potentially reducing their costs and enabling them to scale applications rapidly. How...
With the emergence of new methodologies and technologies it has now become possible to manage large amounts of environmental sensing data and apply new integrated computing models to acquire information intell...
