Edge Computing is used as a solution to the cost problem and transmission delay problem caused by network bandwidth consumption that occurs when IoT/CPS devices are integrated into the cloud by performing artificial intelligence (AI) in an environment close to the data source. Since edge computing runs on devices that provide high-performance computation and network connectivity located in the real world, it is necessary to consider application integrity so that it is not exploited by cyber terrorism that can cause human and material damage. In this paper, we propose a technique to protect the integrity of edge computing applications implemented in a script language that is vulnerable to tampering, such as Python, which is used for implementing artificial intelligence, as container images and then digitally signed. The proposed method is based on the integrity protection technology (Docker Contents Trust) provided by the open source container technology. The Docker Client was modified and used to utilize the whitelist for container signature information so that only containers allowed on edge computing devices can be operated.

Cloud computing has been one of the most critical technology in the last few decades. It has been invented for several purposes as an example meeting the user requirements and is to satisfy the needs of the user in simple ways. Since cloud computing has been invented, it had followed the traditional approaches in elasticity, which is the key characteristic of cloud computing. Elasticity is that feature in cloud computing which is seeking to meet the needs of the user's with no interruption at run time. There are traditional approaches to do elasticity which have been conducted for several years and have been done with different modelling of mathematical. Even though mathematical modellings have done a forward step in meeting the user's needs, there is still a lack in the optimisation of elasticity. To optimise the elasticity in the cloud, it could be better to benefit of Machine Learning algorithms to predict upcoming workloads and assign them to the scheduling algorithm which would achieve an excellent provision of the cloud services and would improve the Quality of Service (QoS) and save power consumption. Therefore, this paper aims to investigate the use of machine learning techniques in order to predict the workload of Physical Hosts (PH) on the cloud and their energy consumption. The environment of the cloud will be the school of computing cloud testbed (SoC) which will host the experiments. The experiments will take on real applications with different behaviours, by changing workloads over time. The results of the experiments demonstrate that our machine learning techniques used in scheduling algorithm is able to predict the workload of physical hosts (CPU utilisation) and that would contribute to reducing power consumption by scheduling the upcoming virtual machines to the lowest CPU utilisation in the environment of physical hosts. Additionally, there are a number of tools, which are used and explored in this paper, such as the WEKA tool to train the real data to explore Machine learning algorithms and the Zabbix tool to monitor the power consumption before and after scheduling the virtual machines to physical hosts. Moreover, the methodology of the paper is the agile approach that helps us in achieving our solution and managing our paper effectively.

The initial research of Task Computing in the ubiquitous computing (UbiComp) environment revealed the need for access control of services. Context-awareness of service requests in ubiquitous computing necessitates a well-designed model to enable effective and adaptive invocation. However, nowadays little work is being undertaken on service access control under the UbiComp environment, which makes the exposed service suffer from the problem of ill-use. One of the research focuses is how to handle the access to the resources over the network. Policy-Based Access Control is an access control method. It adopts a security policy to evaluate requests for resources but has a light-weight combination of the resources. Motivated by the problem above, we propose a universal model and an algorithm to enhance service access control in UbiComp. We detail the architecture of the model and present the access control implementation.

In recent years, cloud computing services based on smart phones and other mobile terminals have been a rapid development. Cloud computing has the advantages of mass storage capacity and high-speed computing power, and it can meet the needs of different types of users, and under the background, mobile cloud computing (MCC) is now booming. In this paper, we have put forward a new classification-based virtual machine placement (CBVMP) algorithm for MCC, and it aims at improving the efficiency of virtual machine (VM) allocation and the disequilibrium utilization of underlying physical resources in large cloud data center. By simulation experiments based on CloudSim cloud platform, the experimental results show that the new algorithm can improve the efficiency of the VM placement and the utilization rate of underlying physical resources.

Edge Computing의 성능 분석을 위해 SDN 테스트 베드를 구축하는 방안을 제안한다. Edge Computing 환경에서 연구한 알고리즘들을 실증적 성능 테스트하기 위해 테스트베드를 구축하였다. Raspberry-Pi를 이용해 SDN Switch를 구현하였고, Edge단의 노드는 테스트를 위해 노트북을 연결해 인터넷이 되는지 확인하였다. Edge Computing 환경은 수 많은 노드를 연결해 테스트해야 하며 따라서 SDN 환경이 적절하다. 본 논문에서는 SDN에 대해서 알아보고 Raspberry-Pi를 이용한 테스트 베드 구축 방안에 대해 소개하고자 한다.

Cloud computing is a computing environment in which users borrow as many IT resources as they need to, and use them over the network at any point in time. This is the concept of leasing and using as many IT resources as needed to lower IT resource usage costs and increase efficiency. Recently, cloud computing is emerging to provide stable service and volume of data along with major technological developments such as the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence and big data. However, for a more secure cloud environment, the importance of perimeter security such as shared resources and resulting secure data storage and access control is growing. This paper analyzes security threats in cloud computing environments and proposes a security architecture for effective response.
