The idea behind Cloud Computing is to deliver Infrastructure-as-aServices and Software-as-a-Service over the Internet on an easy pay-per-use business model. To harness the potentials of Cloud Computing for e-Learning and research purposes, and to smalland medium-sized enterprises, the Hochschule Furtwangen University establishes a new project, called Cloud Infrastructure & Applications (CloudIA...

In recent years a new technological paradigm has emerged in the computer science research community. This paradigm is referred to as Cloud Computing, a new computing paradigm whose aims are to allow users to utilize computing infrastructure over the network, supplied as an on-demand service. There are already many commercial solutions based on this approach, as well as many academic research pr...

Worldwide governments are actively looking into cloud computing as a means of increasing efficiency of service delivery and reducing infrastructure costs. As a result of introducing cloud computing, interoperability issues arise and yet it is vital for e-government services to be efficiently achieved; this is also a challenge for the South African government. Systems providing e-services in dif...

This paper describes a service-oriented architecture that eases the process of scientific application deployment and execution in IaaS Clouds, with a focus on High Throughput Computing applications. The system integrates i) a catalogue and repository of Virtual Machine Images, ii) an application deployment and configuration tool, iii) a metascheduler for job execution management and monitoring....

Cloud computing refers to providing on demand services and computing resources via Internet. The cloud environment has many security challenges among which DDoS attcks have maximum priority. Within Cloud Security issues being dominant for the private enterprises, the denial of service attacks are rated as the highest priority threat. This paper presents a review of DDoS attacks and parameters t...

The hidden meaning of Cloud Computing is entering or storing or sharing the data on the internet. In accustomed scheme, cloud computing is spreading and growing day by day and become most important factor in industries both government or private industries. An extreme concern in cloud computing paradigm is proper load balancing over the attainable resources. Assorted Load balancing algorithm an...

This paper is about deploying Distributed Honeypot System that captures and analyze the attacks on different operating system on Eucalyptus Iaas cloud. The file based security is proposed and implemented on data to make data access secure on virtual machines and physical system in cloud. This makes the private cloud deployment secure enough due to three layers of security provided by virtualiza...

SUMMARY We report CRdata.org, a cloud-based, free, open-source web server for running analyses and sharing data and R scripts with others. In addition to using the free, public service, CRdata users can launch their own private Amazon Elastic Computing Cloud (EC2) nodes and store private data and scripts on Amazon's Simple Storage Service (S3) with user-controlled access rights. All CRdata serv...

An operative encryption algorithm is the goal that cyber security researchers have been seeking. In this paper, we briefly report a newly developed encryption algorithm. An implementation has been carried out, the testing result shown this algorithm is effective. We focus on the processing speed and discuss the comparison with others. It has been recognized as a feasible algorithm (Zhu, 2014), ...
