Advances in web technologies have driven massive content uploads and requests that can be identified by the increased usage of multimedia web and social web services. This situation enforces the content providers to scale their…

Due to the rapid growth of internet broadband access and proliferation of modern mobile devices, various types of multimedia (e.g. text, images, audios and videos) have become ubiquitously available anytime. Mobile device users usually…

Robots have inherently limited onboard processing, storage, and power capabilities. Cloud computing resources have the potential to provide significant advantages for robots in many applications. However, to make use of these resources,…

Web applications underpin much of modern digital life, yet building scalable and consistent cloud applications remains difficult, requiring expertise across cloud computing, distributed systems, databases, and software engineering. These…

In this paper, we propose a digital twin (DT)-assisted cloud-edge collaborative transcoding scheme to enhance user satisfaction in live streaming. We first present a DT-assisted transcoding workload estimation (TWE) model for the cloud-edge…

The massive growth of mobile and IoT devices demands geographically distributed computing systems for optimal performance, privacy, and scalability. However, existing edge-to-cloud serverless platforms lack location awareness, resulting in…

Cloud providers have introduced pricing models to incentivize long-term commitments of compute capacity. These long-term commitments allow the cloud providers to get guaranteed revenue for their investments in data centers and computing…

Cloud computing is a Technology that has come out in the last decade and that is transforming the IT industry in huge. The Cloud computing is playing a vital role as a backbone component of the Internet of Things (IoT). In a Cloud Computing…

Crowdsourced Live Streaming (CLS), most notably Twitch.tv, has seen explosive growth in its popularity in the past few years. In such systems, any user can lively broadcast video content of interest to others, e.g., from a game player to…

Intelligent applications based on machine learning are impacting many parts of our lives. They are required to operate under rigorous practical constraints in terms of service latency, network bandwidth overheads, and also privacy. Yet…

Cloud Computing holds the potential to eliminate the requirements for setting up of high-cost computing infrastructure for IT-based solutions and services that the industry uses. It promises to provide a flexible IT architecture, accessible…

Multimedia conferencing is the conversational exchange of multimedia content between multiple parties. It has a wide range of applications (e.g. Massively Multiplayer Online Games (MMOGs) and distance learning). Many multimedia conferencing…

Enterprises want their in-cloud services to leverage the performance and security benefits that middleboxes offer in traditional deployments. Such virtualized deployments create new opportunities (e.g., flexible scaling) as well as new…

The Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) model of cloud computing is a promising approach towards building elastically scaling systems. Unfortunately, building such applications today is a complex, repetitive and error-prone endeavor, as IaaS…

In the evolving landscape of workplace dynamics, the shift towards hybrid working models has highlighted inefficiencies in the use of traditional office space and the need for an improved employee experience. In this position paper we…

Audio/visual recognition and retrieval applications have recently garnered significant attention within Internet-of-Things (IoT) oriented services, given that video cameras and audio processing chipsets are now ubiquitous even in low-end…

Cloud-native applications are intentionally designed for the cloud in order to leverage cloud platform features like horizontal scaling and elasticity - benefits coming along with cloud platforms. In addition to classical (and very often…

Recent years have witnessed a new video delivery paradigm: smartrouter-based peer video content delivery network, which is enabled by smartrouters deployed at users' homes. ChinaCache (one of the largest CDN providers in China) and Youku (a…

Seamless computing and service sharing in community networks have been gaining momentum due to the emerging technology of community network micro-clouds (CNMCs). However, running services in CNMCs can face enormous challenges such as the…

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…
