Internet privacy is of increasing interest, since online services are getting more and more ubiquitous and cover many aspects of one’s daily life. Hence users leave information tracks and disclose information during usage of services which can be compiled by third parties to infer users behavior, preferences etc. and thus may violate user’s privacy. In this paper we propose a practical method f...

Software as a Service (SaaS) provides access to applications to end users over the Internet without upfront investment in infrastructure and software. To serve their customers, SaaS providers utilise resources of internal data centres or rent resources from a public Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) provider. In-house hosting can increase administration and maintenance costs whereas renting fr...

Most CDNs pay more attention to CSP (Content Service Provider) to gain more profit from faster access rate and lower server load. However they ignore that the CDNs pay the ISPs (Internet Service Provider) for using the underlying networks based on the traffic volume generated by CDN servers. ISPs expect to save their operational cost from inter-ISP traffic and improve the QoS (Quality of Servic...

Structurally, the Internet is a network of interconnected networks. Each network is called an autonomous system (AS). An AS is a network of routers managed by a single administrative entity. We will use the terms AS and Internet service provider (ISP) interchangeably although some large ISPs are divided into multiple ASes for ease of administration. The ASes may either peer privately or through...

Wireless sensor networks (WSN) present a challenging programming environment because of their limited resources, heterogeneity and highly dynamic nature. Service oriented computing (SOC) can simplify application development by hiding platform-specific capabilities behind services. Their services are dynamically discovered and used at run time, enabling application to be platform independent and...

Cloud storage provide storage service to user through internet. There are many different access interface for different applications. Online backup is the most developed application. Most comparison of online backup service focus on functional characters. There is not too much consider about performance evaluation. In this paper, we present a method to evaluate performance of different online b...
