The Special Issue of the Journal of Information Technology Management (JITM) is publishing very selective papers on information management, technology in higher education, integrated systems, enterprise management, cultural thoughts, strategic contributions, management information systems, and cloud computing. We received numerous papers for this special issue but after an extensive pe...

With the rapid development of the internet, the amount of information and data which are produced, are extremely massive. Hence, client will be confused with huge amount of data, and it is difficult to understand which ones are useful. Data mining can overcome this problem. While data mining is using on cloud computing, it is reducing time of processing, energy usage and costs. As the speed of ...

Cloud computing provides infrastructure to the enterprise through the Internet allowing access to cloud services at anytime and anywhere. This pervasive aspect of the services, the distributed nature of data and the wide use of information make cloud computing vulnerable to intrusions that violate the security of the cloud. This requires the use of security mechanisms to detect malicious behavi...

With an exploding growth of the mobile applications and emerging of cloud computing, mobile cloud computing (MCC) has become a potential technology for mobile services. MCC is the combination of cloud computing, mobile computing and wireless networks to bring rich computational resources to mobile users, network operators, as well as cloud computing providers. Despite increasing usage of mobile...

Despite the surge in activity and interest in cloud computing, there are significant and persistent concerns about cloud computing, particularly with regard to trusting the cloud platform in terms of confidentiality, integrity and availability of user data stored through these applications. These factors are significant in determining trust in cloud computing and thus provide the foundation for...

Im Rahmen dieses Beitrags wird die Konzeption, prototypische Umsetzung und Evaluation einer (semi-)automatischen Klassifizierung und Bewertung von Cloud Computing Services auf der Basis Künstlicher Neuronaler Netze (KNN) für CloudServiceMarket beschrieben. CloudServiceMarket ist eine Marktplattform, die Cloud Computing Services beschreibt und das Ziel verfolgt, die Markttransparenz im Bereich C...

As mobile computing has been developed for decades, a new model for mobile computing, namely, mobile cloud computing, emerges resulting from the marriage of powerful yet affordable mobile devices and cloud computing. In this paper we survey existing mobile cloud computing applications, as well as speculate future generation mobile cloud computing applications. We provide insights for the enabli...

What is Cloud Computing? There are three general ways to define it. An operational definition of cloud computing is: “utility computing.” A descriptive definition for cloud computing is: “service-based” or “resourcebased” computing. A practical definition is simply: “pay as you go” computing (Armbrust et al., 2009). All of these descriptions of cloud are correct, and they reflect the two main i...

-Cloud Computing makes computing real as a tool and in the form of sevices.Cloud Computing is simply defined as a type of computing that depends on sharing computing resources rather than having local servers or personal devices to handle applications. Cloud Computing is typically a metaphor for the internet. Cloud Computing, we observe an increasing need for cloud Benchmarks, In order to asses...

This paper identifies main value propositions of leveraging private cloud computing and reviews current performance of implementing cloud computing technology in financial industry. The following aspects have been reviewed by this paper, namely (1) discerning cloud computing-enabled innovations, (2) identifying three value propositions of using cloud computing, (3) reviewing current performance...
