Abstract On-demand availability and resource elasticity features of Cloud computing have attracted the focus of various research domains. Mobile cloud computing is one of these domains where complex computation tasks are offloaded to the cloud resources to augment mobile devices’ cognitive capacity. However, the flexible provisioning of cloud resources is hindered by uncertain offloading workloads and significant setup time of cloud virtual machines (VMs). Furthermore, any delays at the cloud end would further aggravate the miseries of real-time tasks. To resolve these issues, this paper proposes an auto-scaling framework (ACF) that strives to maintain the quality of service (QoS) for the… More >

Abstract Due to the security and scalability features of hybrid cloud architecture, it can better meet the diverse requirements of users for cloud services. And a reasonable resource allocation solution is the key to adequately utilize the hybrid cloud. However, most previous studies have not comprehensively optimized the performance of hybrid cloud task scheduling, even ignoring the conflicts between its security privacy features and other requirements. Based on the above problems, a many-objective hybrid cloud task scheduling optimization model (HCTSO) is constructed combining risk rate, resource utilization, total cost, and task completion time. Meanwhile, an opposition-based learning knee point-driven many-objective evolutionary… More >

Abstract As the amount of data continues to grow rapidly, the variety of data produced by applications is becoming more affluent than ever. Cloud computing is the best technology evolving today to provide multi-services for the mass and variety of data. The cloud computing features are capable of processing, managing, and storing all sorts of data. Although data is stored in many high-end nodes, either in the same data centers or across many data centers in cloud, performance issues are still inevitable. The cloud replication strategy is one of best solutions to address risk of performance degradation in the cloud environment.… More >

Abstract The Cloud Computing Environment (CCE) developed for using the dynamic cloud is the ability of software and services likely to grow with any business. It has transformed the methodology for storing the enterprise data, accessing the data, and Data Sharing (DS). Big data frame a constant way of uploading and sharing the cloud data in a hierarchical architecture with different kinds of separate privileges to access the data. With the requirement of vast volumes of storage area in the CCEs, capturing a secured data access framework is an important issue. This paper proposes an Improved Secure Identification-based Multilevel Structure of… More >

Abstract The Internet of Things (IoT) has recently become a popular technology that can play increasingly important roles in every aspect of our daily life. For collaboration between IoT devices and edge cloud servers, edge server nodes provide the computation and storage capabilities for IoT devices through the task offloading process for accelerating tasks with large resource requests. However, the quantitative impact of different offloading architectures and policies on IoT applications’ performance remains far from clear, especially with a dynamic and unpredictable range of connected physical and virtual devices. To this end, this work models the performance impact by exploiting a… More >
