Cloud manufacturing is a new paradigm which has been under study since 2010 and a vast body of research has been conducted on this topic. Among them, service composition problems are of utmost importance. However, most studies only focused on private clouds meaning the objective function is defined for just one component of the supply chain. This paper attempts to consider service composition p...

Cloud computing is deployed a large set of virtualized computing resources in different infrastructures and various development platforms. One of the significant issues in cloud computing system is the scheduling and allocation of virtual resources and virtual machines (VMs). To address this issue, this paper proposed an efficient approach for virtual machines scheduling in cloud infrastructure...

Enterprise class architectures for cloud computing have begun to emerge, driven by recent advances in virtualization of servers, storage, and access networks. We present a hierarchy classification scheme for cloud services, based on whether the intrastructure, platform, or software is being provisioned and virtualized. We then discuss early adoption of public and private clouds based on the cli...

CloudVeneto is a private cloud implemented as the result of merging two existing infrastructures: INFN Cloud Area Padovana, and owned by 10 departments University Padova. This infrastructure full production facility, in continuous growth, both terms users, computing storage resources. Even if usage not regulated strict pay-per-use model, availability accounting information for such requirement,...
