In this paper we present a new, very large, rich, Comprehensive Scholarly Corpus (CompScholarCorp) as a platform and data source for future research. Our corpus contains records of 1,044,454 papers, 472,365 unique authors, and substantial publication meta-data for each record. We have integrated the data we collected from 276 publishers using a uniform and consistent XML data format within the corpus...
We propose a framework to create Learning Object based on the knowledge management model known as Community of Practice CoP, the framework's elements are: technology, people and process, the technology is a Cloud Computing, people are the user or learning object creators, and the process is a knowledge management model that makes a better interaction between those elements. The principle of the framework...
It can be seen that the vision of the future networking is more focused on the things, media and services, rather than people. With the increasing importance of the Internet of Things, as well as the diversity of the objects, it is crucial to achieve the highest possible level of interoperability. This means that information exchanged needs to have the same format; in addition, data needs to be processed...
Thailand will fully enter aging society in 2025 has a major impact on the rise of patients in each country. There is much organization has tried to develop technology for support aging society. Internet of Things is one of them and it can be connected device to device. Currently, there are many medical devices in Internet of things such as wearable device, digital blood pressure device, blood glucose...
The HL7 standard was initially designed to enable interoperability of healthcare information within large hospitals. HL7's focus has recently been extended to regional healthcare cloud infrastructures but not yet reached the lightweight fog infrastructures emerging from niche healthcare areas such as body area networks (BANs) and the massive flow of personal medical records resulting from off-the-shelf...
Executing software processes in the cloud can bring several benefits to software development. In this paper, we discuss the benefits and considerations of cloud-based software processes. EXE-SPEM is our extension of the Software and Systems Process Engineering (SPEM2.0) Meta-model to support creating cloud-based executable software process models. Since SPEM2.0 is a visual modelling language, we introduce...
Cloud Computing has emerged as a new paradigm of computing that builds on the foundations of Distributed Computing, Grid Computing, and Virtualization. Cloud computing is Internet-accessible business model with flexible resource allocation on demand, and computing on a pay-per-use as utilities. Cloud computing has grown to provide a promising business concept for computing infrastructure, where concerns...
A post PC era, where the device communicates among themselves with minimum human interventions on doorstep. The Internet of Things refers to the use of intelligently connected devices and systems to leverage data gathered by embedded sensors and actuators in machines and other physical objects. Reduction in the hardware costs, increase machine-to-machine interaction, advanced software, flexible cloud...
In this paper we present Andromeda, a system for processing queries and updates on large XML documents. The system is based on the idea of statically and dynamically partitioning the input document, so as to distribute the computing load among the machines of a MapReduce cluster.
To compete in this global economy, organizations must be able to produce results in a timely manner. Because of this global economy, one needs to have some experience in developing distributed applications. Distributed programming may not be a required course, especially in an interdisciplinary curriculum. Therefore, recent graduates may find the job market challenging without some experience in developing...
In recent years, millions of people are connected on social networks. Social networks have become an excellent platform for sharing information and communication that reflects real world relationships. This global use of social networks has made them to be an excellent candidate for using cloud. As a result, numerous access control methods have been proposed to maximize available resources. In addition,...
IT services built from cloud applications are subject of several maintenance operations like upgrades, reconfigurations, or redeployments. Monitoring those changes is crucial to detect operator errors, which are a main source of service failures. Another challenge, which exacerbates operator errors is the increasing frequency of changes, e.g. because of continuous deployments. In this paper we propose...
In recent years, there has been considerable interest in Intercloud. Inspired by the Internet, Intercloud allows clouds to be interconnected, forming a cloud/network of clouds. With Intercloud, many new and powerful cloud computing services can be provided. One of the basic problems with supporting Intercloud is the need to address the issue of how to ensure that clouds can communicate with each other...
Cloud computing has transformed the accessibility and usage of information technology resources, by offering them as services via the Internet. Cloud service provisioning spans across infrastructure, platform and software levels. The management of the services at these levels is based on monitoring. The analysis of monitoring data provides insight into Cloud operations in order to make informed decisions...
Now with advent of internet, the Cloud Computing has been revolutionized by opening new horizon at a global level with promising opportunities. Cloud Computing is the important buzzword in the today's world of Computer. Cloud is an International Collection of Hardware and Software from hundreds of thousands of private and public computer network. Cloud is global platform that permits digital information...
Datawarehouses can be extremely large and ressource demanding, which is not always affordable in a local environment. Hence, in order to deal with the big amounts of data held in the datawarehouses, Cloud warehousing seems to be the solution. On the other hand, many entreprises use datawarehouses for data analysis and use XML to deal with semi-structured data but also to take advantage of the web...
Virtual Machine (VM) migration is mainly used for providing high availability, hardware maintenance, workload balancing and fault takeover in Cloud environment. However, it is susceptible to active and passive security attacks during migration process, which makes IT industry hesitant to accept this feature in Cloud. Compromising the VM migration process may result in DOS attacks, loss of data integrity...
Precision agriculture is a data-driven farming practice that uses intra-and inter-field information to optimize farming operations. The "brain" of precision agriculture is a decision support system (DSS) that acquires data from various sources, analyzes them, and recommends actions to farmers. Recently cloud computing has been used to improve the scalability and reliability of a DSS. Cloud-based...
The IEEE Intercloud project aims to facilitate intercloud interoperability and portability. While topology elements and basic security and trust models had been developed during the last years, an adequate base protocol for the intercloud communication is still required. This protocol have to be extensible and should eliminate limitations of HTTP. This paper proposes a novel protocol that addresses...
Metadata enables organizations or individuals to create and associated data that can help to define richer details about the world and events around it. For the cloud environment, metadata demands identification of associative capacity of information. At the same time, the system should be flexible, scalable and capable of supporting efficient searching mechanism over disparate information generated...
