We present the design and implementation of AppScale, an open source extension to the Google AppEngine (GAE) Platform-asa-Service (PaaS) cloud technology. Our extensions build upon the GAE SDK to facilitate distributed execution of GAE applications over virtualized cluster resources, including Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) cloud systems such as Amazon’s AWS/EC2 and Eucalyptus. AppScale pro...

Delivering scalable rich multimedia applications and services on the Internet requires sophisticated technologies for transcoding, distributing, and streaming content. Although cloud computing provides an infrastructure for such technologies, the specific challenges of task management, load balancing, and fault tolerance remain. To address these issues, we propose a cloud-based distributed mult...

The Grid Computing (grid) refers to technologies that allow consumers to obtain computing on demand, analogous in form and utility to electrical grid [1]. Grids and related application technologies are enabling scientists and engineers to build more and more complex applications for managing and processing large data sets, and for executing scientific experiments on distributed heterogeneous re...

A primary concern of distributed adaptive development environment (DADE) is that of human communication and knowledge sharing among geographically dispersed developers. Emerging cloudbased communication technologies claim to provide a support for communication and knowledge sharing among developers in a DADE. However, the challenge is how to enable developers to self assess and select appropria...

In present scenario, web enabled technologies developed on virtual platforms and generating large opportunities and virtual paths to use their services for the various purposes. Nowadays, cloud computing is emerged as one of the most popular virtual technology for libraries to deliver the services in an effective manner. Cloud computing contains features of different technologies including util...

The emergence of Cloud Computing technologies brings a new information infrastructure to users. Providing geoprocessing functions in Cloud Computing platforms can bring scalable, on-demand, and cost effective geoprocessing services to geospatial users. This paper provides a comparative analysis of geoprocessing in Cloud Computing platforms Microsoft Windows Azure and Google App Engine. The anal...

The looking education on the internet, the wonderful web-based education environment has become one of the warm points on researching remote education. Cloud computing is rising rapidly, with applications in almost all area, including education.Cloud computing builds on decades of research in virtualization, distributed computing, utility computing, and more recently networking, web and softwar...
