Claim reserving in insurance has been studied through two primary frameworks: the macro-level approach, which estimates reserves at an aggregate level (e.g., Chain-Ladder), and the micro-level approach, which estimates reserves at the…

Modern machine learning workloads such as large language model training, fine-tuning jobs are highly distributed and span across hundreds of systems with multiple GPUs. Job completion time for these workloads is the artifact of the…

With the rapid proliferation of streaming services, network load exhibits highly time-varying and bursty behavior, posing serious challenges for maintaining Quality of Service (QoS) in Crowdsourced Cloud-Edge Platforms (CCPs). While CCPs…

Assurance cases are used to demonstrate confidence in system properties of interest (e.g. safety and/or security). A number of system assurance approaches are adopted by industries in the safety-critical domain. However, the task of…

Insurance application processes often rely on lengthy and standardized questionnaires that struggle to capture individual differences. Moreover, insurers must blindly trust users' responses, increasing the chances of fraud. The ARQuest…

Trends such as cloud computing raise issues regarding stable and uniform quality assurance and validation of software requirements. Current QA frameworks are poorly defined, often not automated, and lack the flexibility needed for…

Service requesters with limited technical knowledge should be able to compare services based on their quality of service (QoS) requirements in cloud service marketplaces. Existing service matching approaches focus on QoS requirements as…

Cloud modelling languages (CMLs) are designed to assist customers in tackling the diversity of services in the cloud market. While many CMLs have been proposed in the literature, they lack practical support for automating the selection of…

Enhancements in technology always follow Consumer requirements. Consumer requires best of service with least possible mismatch and on time. Numerous applications available today are based on Web Services and Cloud Computing. Recently, there…

Conformal prediction (CP) offers distribution-free marginal coverage guarantees under an exchangeability assumption, but these guarantees can fail if the data distribution shifts. We analyze the use of pseudo-calibration as a tool to…

A Service Level Agreement (SLA) is a formal contract between a service provider and a consumer, representing a crucial instrument to define, manage, and maintain relationships between these two parties. The SLA's ability to define the…

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…

Networks connecting distributed cloud services through multiple data centers are called cloud networks. These types of networks play a crucial role in cloud computing and a holistic performance evaluation is essential before planning a…

The Confidential Consortium Framework (CCF) is an open-source platform for developing trustworthy and reliable cloud applications. CCF powers Microsoft's Azure Confidential Ledger service and as such it is vital to build confidence in the…

Cloud computing as a potential paradigm offers tremendous advantages to enterprises. With the cloud computing, the market's entrance time is reduced, computing capabilities is augmented and computing power is really limitless. Usually, to…

While Large Language Models (LLMs) excel at tool calling, deploying these capabilities in regulated enterprise environments such as fintech presents unique challenges due to on-premises constraints, regulatory compliance requirements, and…

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…

Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) is one of the most promising directions for the future of cloud services, and serverless functions have immediately become a new middleware for building scalable and cost-efficient microservices and…

Recently, several new pari-mutuel mechanisms have been introduced to organize markets for contingent claims. Hanson introduced a market maker derived from the logarithmic scoring rule, and later Chen and Pennock developed a cost function…

Typical design flows are hierarchical and rely on assembling many individual technology elements from standard cells to complete boards. Providers use compact models to provide simplified views of their products to their users. Designers…
