The Massachusetts open cloud is a new non-profit open public cloud that will be hosted (primarily) at the MGHPCC data center. Its mission is to accelerate innovation in and broaden the applicability of cloud computing. In creating an open alternative to today’s public clouds, the MOC will create an environment that will foster innovation, job creation, new companies and industries, and more res...

In this paper, we have considered a Markovian bulk-service queue for cloud computing architecture. The multiple class i users from the public cloud entering into the queue are naturally based on the FCFS discipline. Partial batch service mode and full batch service mode have considered for accessing cloud database. The requesting and service of the public cloud has been modelled using queueing ...

Cloud computing has been popular as the IT architectures. Cloud service providers offers many services based on cloud computing. Cloud storage service is one of the cloud services which can provide a huge storage space to solve the bottleneck of the storage space of local end users. Here the Cloud server allows the users to store their data on cloud without worrying about correctness and integr...

Supply chain management (SCM) & optimization is a critical aspect of modern enterprises and an ever-green research area. IT dept plays a major role in the optimization of supply chains. This paper presents a critical r...

Organizations owning a datacenter and leasing resources from public clouds need to efficiently manage this heterogeneous infrastructure. In order to do that, automatic management of processing, storage, and networking is desirable to support the use of both private and public cloud resources at the same time, composing the so-called hybrid cloud. In this chapter, the authors introduce the hybri...

In this paper we investigate the way cyber-criminals abuse public cloud services to host part of their malicious infrastructures, including exploit servers to distribute malware, C&C servers to manage infected terminals, redirectors to increase anonymity, and drop zones to host stolen data. We conduct a large scale analysis of all the malware samples submitted to the Anubis malware analysis sys...

With recent advancement in technology, cloud storage became cheaper enabling organizations around the world to store more data on (texts, images, videos, databases etc.), whereas it’s for a backup, archiving or just storing streams. New digital laws and regulation (eg. General Data Protection Regulation) require these change their way of processing handling data, which results usually providers...
