The conspicuous lack of cloud-specific security certifications, in addition to the existing market fragmentation, hinder transparency and accountability in the provision and usage of European cloud services. Both issues ultimately reflect…
In Function as a Service (FaaS), a serverless computing variant, customers deploy functions instead of complete virtual machines or Linux containers. It is the cloud provider who maintains the runtime environment for these functions. FaaS…
While regulators advocate for higher cloud transparency, many Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) often do not provide detailed information regarding their security implementations in their Service Level Agreements (SLAs). In practice, CSPs are…
Cloud computing provides ubiquitous and on-demand access to vast reconfigurable resources that can meet any computational need. Many service models are available, but the Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) model is particularly suited to…
The real-time database service selection depends typically to the system stability in order to handle the time-constrained transactions within their deadline. However, applying the real-time database system in the mobile ad hoc networks…
This paper presents a high-performance, scalable network monitoring and intrusion detection system (IDS) implemented in P4. The proposed solution is designed for high-performance environments such as cloud data centers, where ultra-low…
We propose a novel Quality of Experience (QoE) metric as a key criterion to optimize the composition of energy services in a crowdsourced IoT environment. A novel importance-based composition algorithm is proposed to ensure the highest QoE…
Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) is one form of the serverless cloud computing paradigm and is defined through FaaS platforms (e.g., AWS Lambda) executing event-triggered code snippets (i.e., functions). Many studies that empirically evaluate…
Cloud Computing means a place where we can store our valuable information of data and access the computing and networking services following the pay-as-you-go method without a physical environment. In the present day, cloud computing offers…
Cloud-based computing systems could get oversubscribed due to budget constraints of cloud users which causes violation of Quality of Experience(QoE) metrics such as tasks' deadlines. We investigate an approach to achieve robustness against…
Currently used digital signatures based on asymmetric cryptography will be vulnerable to quantum computers running Shor's algorithm. In this work, we propose a new quantum-assisted digital signature protocol based on symmetric keys…
Recent advances in the areas of Internet of Things (IoT), Big Data, and Machine Learning have contributed to the rise of a growing number of complex applications. These applications will be data-intensive, delay-sensitive, and real-time as…
Service Oriented Architectures (SOAs) are component-based architectures, characterized by reusability, modularization and composition, usually offered by HTTP (web services) and often equipped with a Quality of Services (QoS) measure. In…
Building high quality cloud applications becomes an urgently required research problem. Nonfunctional performance of cloud services is usually described by quality-of-service (QoS). In cloud applications, cloud services are invoked remotely…
The flexibility and the variety of computing resources offered by the cloud make it particularly attractive for executing user workloads. However, IaaS cloud environments pose non-trivial challenges in the case of workflow scheduling under…
The current Cloud infrastructure services (IaaS) market employs a resource-based selling model: customers rent nodes from the provider and pay per-node per-unit-time. This selling model places the burden upon customers to predict their job…
Remote attestation protocols are widely used to detect device configuration (e.g., software and/or data) compromise in Internet of Things (IoT) scenarios. Unfortunately, the performances of such protocols are unsatisfactory when dealing…
Developing stateful cloud applications, such as low-latency workflows and microservices with strict consistency requirements, remains arduous for programmers. The Stateful Functions-as-a-Service (SFaaS) paradigm aims to serve these use…
With the recent advances in sensor hardware and software, architectures for virtualized Wireless Sensor Networks (vWSNs) are now emerging. Through node- and network-level virtualization, vWSNs can be offered as Infrastructure-as-a-Service…
With the rapid development of Cloud computing technologies and wide adopt of Cloud services and applications, QoS provisioning in Clouds becomes an important research topic. In this paper, we propose an admission control mechanism for Cloud…
