The past several years have seen many new services spread across the Internet. One of the biggest trends has been social media services such as Facebook and Twitter. Although social media is the major trend, it is not the only one. Cloud computing has made a large impact on the computing industry in recent years. Whether being utilized to provide highly scalable robust environments for applications...
The new technology supports new business scenarios or new implementations for the existing ones. The paper describes an implementation of B2B scenario. The Google cloud platform as service makes possible a digital broker system between businesses linked by interests. Architecture of this digital broker consists of common Cloud SQL database, hosted on Google platform, and a Google App Engine application...
Web services technology is mainly designed for the interoperability among machines, whose inputs and outputs are defined in the form of XML schema without presentation information, hence it is unable to present the execution results of Web services to human beings directly and friendly. To address this problem, an ontology-based method and a rendering engine are proposed in this paper. In the method,...
Cloud computing has been evolved as a key computing platform for sharing resources and services. People should have a relatively convenient environment and life for handling home-appliances. This study designs and develops a Web 2.0 Service Platform (WSP) for DPWS-based Home-appliances in the Cloud environment, which is composed of mobile users, home appliances and the cloud environment. WSP automatically...
Interactive Voice Response (IVR) applications (e.g. automated attendant) are ubiquitous nowadays. Cloud computing is an emerging multi-faceted paradigm (Infrastructure as a Service — IaaS, Platform as a Service — PaaS, and Software as a Service — SaaS) with several inherent benefits (e.g. resource efficiency). Very few, if any, IVR applications are offered today in cloud settings despite all the potential...
Cloud computing is a buzzword terminology applied to several nascent trends in the turbulent landscape of information technology. Computing in the "cloud" alludes to ubiquitous and inexhaustible on-demand IT resources accessible through the Internet. In the era of cloud computing, whole lifecycle of telecommunication services, especially service deployment, present new features. In this...
Paper deals with the design issues of an e-Learning Computational System based on a Task Management Model. One of the main components of the proposed e-Learning Computational Cloud is the Controller acting as an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) for absolute Model abstraction from outside references. Simultaneously, View is completely decoupled from Model and ultimate privacy and security is achieved for...
There is an emergence of Cloud application platforms such as Microsoft's Azure, Google's App Engine and Amazon's EC2/SimpleDB/S3. Startups and Enterprise alike, lured by the promise of `infinite scalability', `ease of development', `low infrastructure setup cost' are increasingly using these Cloud service building blocks to develop and deploy their web based applications. However, the precise nature...
This paper aims to present a model for malware detection, uCLAVS (University of Caldas' AntiVirus Service), a multiple engine service that follows the set of defined protocols and standards for Web Services technologies, in addition an Ontology for Malware and Intrusion Detection is described. uCLAVS is based on the idea that the files analysis commonly carried by applications residing on the client...
As a new computing paradigm, Cloud computing has been advocated by IT industry and academia. It can provide lots of services, however, how to manage these services and guarantee the quality of service, has become one of the key factors for the development of Cloud computing. This paper proposes a hierarchical architecture model of Cloud services resources management and monitoring by integrating the...
A significant proportion of e-Learning services are delivered through Cloud Computing. These use Web services as an interface integrator to support communication across heterogeneous platforms over internet protocols. Similarly, a high level of task collaboration is needed to form an e-Learning community. Therefore, we propose an e-Learning Computational Cloud (eLC2) based on the Model-View-Controller...
The particular benefit of cloud computing is the simple scalability of large applications, and many companies have already decided to use the cloud for their infrastructures. An enterprise IT infrastructure often includes a workflow management system. In a cloud, various workflow engines can coexist, each with its specific functional responsibility. A central instance is in charge of distributing...
The increasing processing power, storage and support of multiple network interfaces are promising the mobile devices to host services and participate in service discovery network. A few efforts have been taken to facilitate provisioning mobile Web services. However they have not addressed the issue about how to host heavy-duty services on mobile devices with limited computing resources in terms of...
While the emergence of clouds had lead to a significant paradigm shift in business and research, cloud computing is still in its infancy. Specifically, there is no effective publication and discovery service nor are cloud services easy to use. This paper presents a new technology for offering ease of discovery, selection and use of clusters hosted within clouds. By improving these services, cloud...
BPEL is the de facto standard for business process modeling in today's enterprises and is a promising candidate for the integration of business and scientific applications that run in Grid or Cloud environments. In these distributed infrastructures, the occurrence of faults is quite likely. Without sophisticated fault handling, workflows are frequently abandoned due to software or hardware failures,...
More and more companies are outsourcing parts of their business processes to third party providers to exploit the expertise and economies of scale of these third party providers. In the IT field, emerging delivery models for software such as Software as a Service and cloud computing offer the possibility to outsource applications and computing infrastructure and thus enable enterprises to focus on...
With the emerging technologies like cloud computing and Internet scale data centers, radically simplified deployment approaches are critical for the success of the even more complicated solutions. Although there have been many traditional solution deployment approaches, each of them mainly focuses on particular software type or product. In this paper, we propose the next generation solution deployment...
BPEL is the de facto standard for business process modeling in today's enterprises and is a promising candidate for the integration of business and Grid applications. Current BPEL implementations do not provide mechanisms to schedule service calls with respect to the load of the target hosts. In this paper, a solution that automatically schedules workflow steps to underutilized hosts and provides...
