This paper purposes a hybrid biogeography algorithm that is the combination of biogeography and particle swarm optimization algorithm. A hybrid algorithm performs mutation, based on velocity instead of random mutation. The simulation results show that our proposed scheduling algorithm reduces the energy footprint of cloud data centers and improves a convergence rate of biogeography algorithm.
A notion of creating smart cities with integrated high end ICT technologies, including cloud, edge, IoTs, and so forth, has increased recently in order to provide a reasonably high comfort to city residents with limited human intervention. In fact, one of the major challenges faced by city authorities of developing countries is to control air pollution, which might cause chronic diseases and financial...
This work aims to provide details on how to build an automated Environment Controlled Poultry Management System (ECPMS) using low cost commodity hardware and open source software. An all-inclusive system was developed using RaspberryPi-3, used as a Linux embedded processing unit and ArduinoMega board for interfacing with array of sensors. The system has been systematically investigated for different...
Internet of Things (IoT) can be perceived as enabling user-specific interoperable communication services by integration of sensing and actuation technologies with other leading technologies, such as telecommunication, networking, security and cloud computing etc. Application of the ubiquitous IoT technologies to augment healthcare systems inadvertently exposes the latter to unpredictable, disruptive...
Automated Assist for Car Maintenance is an android application that is developed to assist an average person in day to day minor glitches caused by automobiles. As automotive industries are constantly expanding, the need for the maintenance of vehicles is escalating. This also helps in identifying emergency engine diagnostic trouble codes (DTC) that can be dealt with minimum vehicular repair experience,...
Cloud Computing offers on demand services of infrastructure (servers, storage and network), platform (operating systems and databases) and software (applications) over the Internet on pay-as-you-use model. Security is of pre-eminent interest in this new era of computing as many e-commerce and social networking sites move their operations to the Cloud. One of the approaches to protect the Cloud Environment...
Much of smart phone time is spent in using apps that connect to the Internet. Android, out of the box, does not provide network filtering or monitoring facilities. Security exploits and privacy leaks makes it necessary that we track network usage that could be happening behind our backs. We have built a “network ombudsman” framework service and an app that continuously monitors and logs the network...
Placement of Virtual Machines (VMs) on physical servers is a challenging area of research and has received considerable interest among researchers in the field of Cloud Computing. This paper focuses on the reduction of cost in placing a set of VMs considering the constraints of available cloud resources. We have proposed a polynomial time heuristic to place VMs satisfying the constraints with the...
The allocation of cloud resources is a widely studied problem in the current scenario. The economic settings of allocating resources in cloud computing are being studied in the literature over the last 7 years to some extent by the concept of mechanism design with money which has been emerged as a natural tool to model situations where the agents have their own private information. However, in some...
The extreme growth in deployment of cloud based services along with applications requiring high computational complexity has had an adverse effect on energy consumption in data centers. When cloud data centers add more computing capacity and increase in size, they generate more heat, require extra cooling. To counter this effect, energy dissipation must be reduced. Servers consume power even when...
Cloud Computing is becoming defacto for organizations due to scalability, agility and transparency features. Industry sectors with large IT adoption are setting up Community Cloud because of similar functional, compliance and regulatory requirements. The trust and the services of Community Cloud differentiate it from Public Cloud offerings. However, the pricing of Community Cloud services need to...
The advancements made in cloud applications attracts the healthcare society. The analysis over Electronic Health Record (EHR) gains much importance among the research communities. As EHR contains sensitive information, the need of security and privacy is to be analyzed effectively. The services like outsourcing and increased computation has enhanced the usage of the digital technologies. The digital...
Cloud computing is a trending paradigm that combines several computing concepts and technologies of the Internet to create a platform for more agile, cost effective and reliable model for the public users, business applications and IT infrastructure. There are various requirements that need to be addressed by Cloud Service Provider (CSP) for enabling the cloud services to the users such as security,...
The growing demand in the market for increased storage capacity is mainly because of our dependency on the Internet. Network Attached Storage (NAS) provides a dedicated file server to manage all kinds of files. It is an independent Storage device which is connected directly to the network. Due to its availability on the network it can be easily accessed by any number of heterogeneous clients. The...
