This article describes how with the rapid growth of cloud services in recent years, it is very difficult to choose the most suitable cloud services among those services that provide similar functionality. The quality of services (QoS) is considered the most significant factor for appropriate...

This article describes how Cloud Computing is not just a buzzword but a shift from IT departments to the outsourcing vendors without impacting business efficiency. Some organizations are moving towards cloud computing but many have resistance to adopting cloud computing due to limitations in...

The emerging cloud computing technology is the attention of both commercial and academic spheres. Generally, the cost of the faster resource is more than the slower ones, therefore, there is a trade-off between deadline and cost. In this paper, the authors propose a receiver initiated deadline...

The internet has become essential and is the basis of cloud computing and will continue to be in the future. Best resource allocation is a process of placing the resources at their minimum cost/time and minimizes the load to a virtual machine. In this article, the authors propose an algorithm to...

The present research paper proposes and develops a Cloud computing based Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) Model named as CloudGanga for sharing, analysis and processing of geospatial data particularly in River Ganga Basin management in India. The main purpose of the CloudGanga is to integrate...

Due to the advancements in virtualization technology, it is now an up and coming field and has become a more appealing area of internet technology. Since there is a rapid growth for the demand of computational power increases by scientific, business, and web-applications, it leads to the...

This article describes how cloud computing and the convergence toward “Everything as a service” have encouraged the proliferation of services ready for use. These facilities have increased the requests of the companies for the development of the applications. In this context, where the...

Mobile learning is part of a new learning landscape created by the availability of technologies and increasing digitization. As the use of mobile technology has increased worldwide, interest has grown in its potential for supporting flexible, accessible, and personalized education. As a result,...

With the recent advances in cloud computing and the improvement in the capabilities of mobile devices in terms of speed, storage, and computing power, Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) is emerging as one of important branches of cloud computing. MCC is an extension of cloud computing with the support...

This paper offers a case study in which a traditional Learning Management System (LMS) was enhanced through learning theories and web-based technologies to support the development of doctoral students. The model being used here, can address and support a personalised learning approach to assist...
