While the many economic and technological advantages of Cloud computing are apparent,
the migration of key sector applications onto it has been limited, in part, due to the lack of …

Cloud computing is redefining the on-demand usage of remotely-located, and highly
available computing resources to the user. Unfortunately, while the many economic and …

Both cloud and grid are computing paradigms that manage large sets of distributed
resources, and the scientific community would benefit from their convergence. This paper …

The users of Cloud Service Providers (CSP) often motivate their choice of providers based
on criteria such as the offered service level agreements (SLA) and costs, and also recently …

Research in vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) has evolved considerably over the last
years. Security and privacy in VANETs have recently appealed special interest in the …

Both cloud and GRID are computing paradigms for the large-scale management of
