  • A cloud computing system can be characterized by the provision of resources in the form of services to third parties on a leased, usage-based basis, as well as the private infrastructures maintained and utilized by individual organizations. To attain the desired reliability and energy efficiency in a cloud data center, trade-offs need to be carried out between system performance and power consumption. Resolving these conflicting goals is often the major challenge encountered in the design of optimization strategies for cloud data centers. The work presented in this paper is directed towards the development of an Energy-efficient and Performance-aware Cloud System equipped with strategies for dynamic switching of optimization approach. Moreover, a platform is also provided for the deployment of a Wind Farm CMS (Condition Monitoring System) which allows ubiquitous access. Due to the geographically-dispersed nature of wind farms, the CMS can take advantage of the cloud's highly scalable architecture in order to keep a reliable and efficient operation capable of handling multiple simultaneous users and huge amount of monitoring data. Using the proposed cloud architecture, a Wind Farm CMS is deployed in a virtual platform to monitor and evaluate the aging conditions of the turbine's major components in concurrent, yet isolated working environments.

  • Purpose: Cloud-computing technology has several advantages, including maintenance, management, accessibility, and computing power. A greenhouse-control system utilizing these advantages was developed using a private cloud-computing system. Methods: A private cloud needs a collection of servers and a suite of software tools to monitor and control cloud-computing resources. In this study, a server farm, operated by OpenStack as a cloud platform, was constructed using servers, and other network devices. Results: The greenhouse-control system was developed according to the fundamental cloud service models: infrastructure as a service, platform as a service, and software as a service. This system has four additional advantages - security, control function, public data use, and data exchange. There are several considerations that must be addressed, such as service level agreement, data ownership, security, and the differences between users. Conclusions: When the advantages are utilized and the considerations are addressed, cloud-computing technology will be beneficial for agricultural use.

  • Cloud computing systems' performance is still a central focus of research for determining optimal resource utilization. Running several existing benchmarks simultaneously serves to acquire performance information from specific cloud system resources. However, the complexity of monitoring the existing performance of computing systems is a challenge requiring an efficient and interactive user directing performance-monitoring system. In this paper, we propose an effective multivariate control framework for monitoring cloud systems performance. The proposed framework utilizes the hardware cloud systems performance metrics, collects and displays the performance measurements in terms of meaningful graphics, stores the graphical information in a database, and provides the data on-demand without requiring a third party software. We present performance metrics in terms of CPU usage, RAM availability, number of cloud active machines, and number of running processes on the selected machines that can be monitored at a high control level by either using a cloud service customer or a cloud service provider. The experimental results show that the proposed framework is reliable, scalable, precise, and thus outperforming its counterparts in the field of monitoring cloud performance.

  • Along with the diversification of digital content services using wired/wireless networks, the market for the construction of base systems is growing rapidly. Cloud computing services are recognized for a reasonable cost of service and superior system operations. Cloud computing is convenient as far as system construction and maintenance are concerned; however, owing to the security risks associated with the system construction of actual cloud computing service, the ICT(Information and Communications Technologies) market is lacking regardless of its many advantages. In this paper, we conducted an experiment on a cloud computing security enhancement model to strengthen the security aspect of cloud computing and provide convenient services to the users. The objective of this study is to provide secure services for system operation and management while providing convenient services to the users. For secure and convenient cloud computing, a single sign-on (SSO) technique and a system access control technique are proposed. For user authentication using SSO, a security level is established for each user to facilitate the access to the system, thereby designing the system in such a manner that the rights to access resources of the accessed system are not abused. Furthermore, using a user authentication ticket, various systems can be accessed without a reauthorization process. Applying the security technique to protect the entire process of requesting, issuing, and using a ticket against external security threats, the proposed technique facilitates secure cloud computing service.

  • Scheduling user-submitted cloud tasks to the appropriate virtual machine (VM) in cloud computing is critical for cloud providers. However, as the demand for cloud resources from user tasks continues to grow, current evolutionary algorithms (EAs) cannot satisfy the optimal solution of large-scale cloud task scheduling problems. In this paper, we first construct a large- scale multi-objective cloud task problem considering the time and cost functions. Second, a multi-objective optimization algorithm based on multi-factor optimization (MFO) is proposed to solve the established problem. This algorithm solves by decomposing the large-scale optimization problem into multiple optimization subproblems. This reduces the computational burden of the algorithm. Later, the introduction of the MFO strategy provides the algorithm with a parallel evolutionary paradigm for multiple subpopulations of implicit knowledge transfer. Finally, simulation experiments and comparisons are performed on a large-scale task scheduling test set on the CloudSim platform. Experimental results show that our algorithm can obtain the best scheduling solution while maintaining good results of the objective function compared with other optimization algorithms.

  • Cloud computing services has gained increasing popularity in recent years for supporting various on demand and scalable services for IT consumers where there is a need of less investment towards infrastructure. While storage architecture of cloud enjoys a more robust and fault-tolerant cloud computing network, such architecture also poses a number of security challenges especially when applied in applications related to social networks, Financial transactions, etc. First, as data are stored and maintained by individual virtual machines so Cloud resources are prone to hijacked. Such attacks allow attackers to create, modify and delete machine images, and change administrative passwords and settings successfully. hence, it is significantly harder to ensure data security. Second, Due to dynamic and shared nature of the Cloud, data may be compromised in many ways. Last but not least, Service hijacking may lead to redirect client to an illegitimate website. User accounts and service instances could in turn make a new base for attackers. To address the above challenges, we propose in this paper a distributed data access control scheme that is able to fulfil fine-grained access control over cloud data and is resilient against strong attacks such as compromise and user colluding. The proposed framework exploits a novel cryptographic primitive called attribute-based encryption (ABE), tailors, and adapts it for cloud computing with respect to security requirements

  • 사물인터넷(IoT: Internet of Things)과 클라우드(Cloud) 컴퓨팅의 융합에 기반한 소위 IoT-Cloud 서비스들이 ICT 기반의 창의적이고 다양한 미래지향적인 응용 서비스를 구현하는 핵심 모델로 부상하고 있다. IoT 부분의 기기에서 부족한 컴퓨팅 능력을 공유형 클라우드로 보완하는 IoT-Cloud 서비스의 실증은 컨테이너(container)를 활용한 마이크로서비스(microservice) 기반 구현이 효율적이다. 마이크로서비스로 구현된 응용 서비스의 품질은 서비스 기능(function)들을 서로 연결(inter-connect)하는 서비스기능체이닝(SFC: service function chaining) 과정에서 발생하는 특정 기능 또는 이들의 연결에 따른 병목(bottleneck) 등에 영향 받는다. 전체 서비스의 정상작동을 보장하기 위해 서비스 환경 변동을 감안한 다양한 테스트 과정이 필요하며, 이를 통한 지속적인 개선 노력이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 Node.js 기반의 IoT-Cloud 서비스를 대상으로 DevOps(개발운영병행체제) 기반 지속적인 통합 도구와 응용 성능 모니터링(application performance monitoring) 기법을 활용하여 지속적인 통합을 실험적으로 실증하고 그 효과를 논하고자 한다.

  • 클라우드 컴퓨팅은 서비스 사용자 요구에 따라 컴퓨팅 자원을 임대하여 사용하는 컴퓨팅 패러다임이다. 클라우드 컴퓨팅에서 컴퓨팅 자원은 사용자의 서비스 수요에 따라 컴퓨팅 자원을 확장 또는 축소가 가능하여 전체 서비스 비용 절감 효과를 가질 수 있다. 그리고, M&S (Modeling and Simulation) 기술은 컴퓨팅 자원과 CAE 소프트웨어를 통해 엔지니어링 분석 작업 결과를 얻어, 실제 실험 결과가 없이 제품의 상태를 시뮬레이션을 수행하여 분석하는 방법이다. M&S 기술은 FEA(Finite Element Analysis), CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics), MBD(Multibody Dynamics) 및 최적화 분야에서 활용된다. M&S 통한 작업 절차는 전처리, 해석, 후처리 단계로 구분된다. CAE 소트프웨어를 통한 3D 모델링 작업인 전/후처리는 GPU 연산이 집약적이며, 3D 모델 해석은 CPU 또는 GPU 연산이 요구된다. 일반적인 개인 데스크톱에서 복잡한 3D 모델을 해석하는 시간이 많이 소요된다. 결과적으로, M&S를 원활하게 수행하기 위해서는 고성능 컴퓨팅 자원이 요구된다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 우리는 통합 클라우드 및 클러스터 컴퓨팅 환경인 HEMOS-Cloud 서비스를 제안한다. 제안한 클라우드 기반 방식에서는 M&S에 필요한 전/후처리 및 솔버 작업을 원활하게 수행할 수 있도록 구성했다. 이 시스템에서 전/후처리는 VDI(Virtual Desktop Infrastructure)에서 수행되고 해석은 클러스터 환경에서 수행된다. 각 용도에 맞게 서로 다른 환경에서 분리하여 컴퓨팅 자원 간에 간섭을 최소화했다. HEMOS-Cloud 서비스는 기업 또는 학교에서 M&S의 경험이 필요로 하는 사용자에게 CAE 소프트웨어와 컴퓨팅 자원을 제공한다. 본 논문에서는 HEMOS-Cloud 서비스의 경제적 파급효과를 산업연관분석을 활용하여 분석했다. 전문가의 의견을 반영하여 조정된 계수를 통한 분석 결과는 생산유발효과 74억원, 부가가치유발효과 41억원, 취업자유발효과 10억원당 50명으로 분석되었다.
