Summary
Cloud computing has undergone a radical evolution over the past decade, becoming the backbone of digital transformation across all sectors. However, the emergence of edge intelligence, AI-driven orchestration, quantum computing, and zero-trust security frameworks is reshaping traditional cloud paradigms. This Special Issue aims to explore the architectures, services, and applications that define the next generation of cloud computing ecosystems.
The focus is on novel frameworks that address the scalability, latency, interoperability, and energy-efficiency challenges of modern cloud systems. Of particular interest are hybrid models that integrate cloud-edge-fog layers, secure multi-party computation for privacy-preserving analytics, AI-native service orchestration, and blockchain-enabled cloud platforms. The Special Issue seeks both theoretical advances and real-world deployments, with an emphasis on interdisciplinary contributions spanning computing, data science, systems engineering, and cybersecurity.
Suggested Themes:
· Intelligent cloud-edge-fog architectures for real-time applications
· AI-native orchestration and self-healing cloud systems
· Secure and privacy-preserving cloud frameworks
· Serverless and microservice-based infrastructures
· Energy-efficient and green cloud computing
· Quantum-inspired and neuromorphic cloud architectures
· Blockchain and decentralized trust models in the cloud
This Special Issue will provide a curated collection of frontier research and practice, contributing to the scientific discourse shaping the future of cloud computing.
