Providing a customized support for the OLAP brings tremendous challenges to the OLAP technology. Standing at the crossroads of the preferences and the data warehouse, two emerging trends are pointed out; namely: (i) the personalization and…
Big data dictate their requirements to the hardware and software. Simple migration to the cloud data processing, while solving the problem of increasing computational capabilities, however creates some issues: the need to ensure the safety,…
Every organisation today wants to adopt cloud computing paradigm and leverage its various advantages. Today everyone is aware of its characteristics which have made it so popular and how it can help the organisations focus on their core…
Cloud Computing offers virtualized computing, storage, and networking resources, over the Internet, to organizations and individual users in a completely dynamic way. These cloud resources are cheaper, easier to manage, and more elastic…
The popularization of cloud computing has raised concerns over the energy consumption that takes place in data centers. In addition to the energy consumed by servers, the energy consumed by large numbers of network devices emerges as a…
Instead of relying on huge and expensive data centers for rolling out cloud-based services to rural and remote areas, we propose a hardware platform based on small single-board computers. The role of these micro-data centers is twofold. On…
Edge computing has become increasingly popular across many domains and enterprises. However, given the locality constraint of edges (i.e., only close-by edges are useful), multiplexing diverse workloads becomes challenging. This results in…
Cloud computing is a complex infrastructure of software, hardware, processing, and storage that is available as a service. Cloud computing offers immediate access to large numbers of the world's most sophisticated supercomputers and their…
A data commons is a cloud-based data platform with a governance structure that allows a community to manage, analyze and share its data. Data commons provide a research community with the ability to manage and analyze large datasets using…
Relying on the flexible-access interconnects to the scalable storage and compute resources, data centers deliver critical communications connectivity among numerous servers to support the housed applications and services. To provide the…
Cloud Computing is a versatile technology that can support a broad-spectrum of applications. The low cost of cloud computing and its dynamic scaling renders it an innovation driver for small companies, particularly in the developing world.…
Technology use has grown rapidly in recent years. It is infused in virtually every aspect of organizational and individual life. This technology runs on servers, typically in data centers. As workloads grow, more serves are required. Each…
Publicly available data from open sources (e.g., United States Census Bureau (Census), World Health Organization (WHO), Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)) are vital resources for policy makers, students and researchers across…
Cloud computing provisions computer resources at a cost-effective way based on demand. Therefore it has become a viable solution for big data analytics and artificial intelligence which have been widely adopted in various domain science.…
Arbitrary usage of cloud computing, either private or public, can lead to uneconomical energy consumption in data processing, storage and communication. Hence, green cloud computing solutions aim not only to save energy but also reduce…
We propose an aggressive computational sprinting variant for data center environments. While most of previous work on computational sprinting focuses on maximizing the sprinting process while ensuring non-faulty conditions, we take…
Smart cities are increasingly adopting data-centric architectures to enhance the efficiency, sustainability, and resilience of urban services.
Cloud computing represents a shift away from computing as a product that is purchased, to computing as a service that is delivered to consumers over the internet from large-scale data centers - or "clouds". This paper discusses some of the…
Cloud Computing refers to the use of computer resources as a service on-demand via internet. It is mainly based on data and applications outsourcing, traditionally stored on users' computers, to remote servers (datacenters) owned,…
In the last decade, the Internet of Things paradigm has caused an exponential increase in the number of connected devices. This trend brings the Internet closer to everyday activities and enables data collection that can be used to create…
