A comprehensive model is presented for cloud computing effectiveness assessment. The model consists of technical, organizational, economic and external dimensions and addresses users as well as providers of various levels of cloud computing service. Independent and dependent characteristics of effectiveness are identified. Measures of each of the four dimensions of the model are defined and their assessment is presented in the form of footprint diagrams. In the research that led to the final model, after a detailed literature review, a large number of experts were interviewed and questionnaires were applied to construct the initial model. By applying factor and reliability analysis to the results of a survey of cloud computing organizations, the model was updated. Then, four qualitative exploratory case studies in 10 companies were carried out to finalize the model. The model was validated through four further confirmatory case studies. This model can be used for identifying strengths and weaknesses as well as benchmarking and comparing different organizations.

In this paper, we propose CLOUDGEN workflow that produces synthetic workloads for Infrastructure and Platform as a Service for the evaluation of resource management approaches in cloud computing systems. To this end, CLOUDGEN systematically processes and clusters records in a given workload trace and fits distributions for different workload parameters within the clusters. Different than the previous work, clustering is carried out to produce different virtual machine types for achieving models that are sui...
Cloud Providing on Demand Storage Services Enforcing Techno Commercial Service Level Agreement for an improved QoS
Ahuja, Ravin; Misra, Ananya; Gabrani, Goldie (2017-10-31)
Advancements in the application service provisioning have created stringent scenarios in the world of cloud. The framework now needs to comply with specific requirements of consumers with specific demands. The diversified needs of storage and other related services in the dynamically changing needs of consumers. Such application requirements are becoming frequent as a consequence to high performance computing and large data/information retrievals. At the same time, understandings between the Cloud and its c...
A Joint resource allocation system for cloud computing /
Dikbayır, Hüseyin Seçkin; Bazlamaçcı, Cüneyt Fehmi; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2014)
Cloud computing is a new trend in computing, where resources such as servers, storage devices and software applications are provided to customers over the Internet. It is typically based on a pay-per-use model similar to renting a car or taking a taxi in our daily life. The primary purpose of a cloud system is to utilize available resources effectively to provide an economic benefit to customers. To succeed in this, jobs initiated by consumers are allocated to a set of virtual machines (VM) that run in big ...
Homomorphic encryption for data security in cloud computing
Wainakh, Asndar; Akyıldız, Ersan; Cenk, Murat; Department of Cryptography (2018)
Recently, cloud computing has grown into a popular aspect of the IT industry. Cloud computing provides a range of hardware and software resources to its customers,which they can access through the internet. With the rapid development of cloud computing, various security issues related to confidentiality, and integrity are appearing. Traditional encryption techniques provide security to data while it is stored and transmitted, but not while it is processed. Hence traditional encryption techniques are not enou...
Legacy migration to Service-Oriented Computing with mashups
Cetin, Semih; Altintas, N. Ilker; Oğuztüzün, Mehmet Halit S.; Doğru, Ali Hikmet; Tufekci, Ozgur; Süloğlu, Selma (2007-01-01)
Although Service-Oriented Computing holds great promises, it is still not clear when and how the existing systems will exploit this new computational model. The problem is particularly severe for the software having several years of use. This work provides a roadmap for the migration of legacy software to Service-Oriented Computing by means of right levels of abstraction. The key idea is having integration even at the presentation layer, not only at backend layers such as application or data. This requires ...
