Il cloud computing. Alla ricerca del diritto perduto nel web 3.0

2014

Il presente saggio intende mettere a fuoco il fenomeno del cloud computing, tentando di setacciare i frammenti normativi dispersi in un fiume di norme difficilmente componibili a sistema, al fine di ricostruire il quadro giuridico vigente in materia. La certezza e la conoscibilità del diritto sono esigenze che si fanno viepiù pressanti in un terreno, come quello in esame, ancora tutto da dissodare e l’ignoranza del quale può a ragione far temere, con la prozia Léonie nella Recherche, che « la journée ne se passera pas sans pluie ». Ed è alla luce dell’attuale incertezza che si spiega il singolare fenomeno per cui, secondo una ricerca del 2014, gran parte delle imprese italiane hanno familia…

Theoretical Game Approach for Mobile Users Resource Management in a Vehicular Fog Computing Environment

2018

Vehicular Cloud Computing (VCC) is envisioned as a promising approach to increase computation capabilities of vehicle devices for emerging resource-hungry mobile applications. In this paper, we introduce the new concept of Vehicular Fog Computing (VFC). The Fog Computing (FC) paradigm evolved and is employed to enhance the quality of cloud computing services by extending it to the edge of the network using one or more collaborative end-user clients or near-user edge devices. The VFC is similar to the VCC concept but uses vehicles resources located at the edge of the network in order to serve only local on-demand mobile applications. The aim of this paper is to resolve the problem of admissi…

Cloud Computing e protezione dei dati nel web 3.0

2014

Il cloud computing è un ritrovato deputato all'archiviazione, elaborazione e uso di dati su computer remoti, grazie al quale gli utenti hanno a disposizione una potenza di elaborazione quasi illimitata, non sono tenuti ad investire grandi capitali per soddisfare le proprie esigenze e possono accedere ai loro dati ovunque sia disponibile una connessione Internet. Il presente scritto si propone di contribuire ad una migliore comprensione della nuova tecnologia e alla ricostruzione dell'attuale (invero scarno) quadro giuridico, ciò che può aiutare a superare i principali problemi posti dalla nuvola al diritto dei privati e riconducibili, primariamente, alla protezione dei dati, al diritto dei …

Data offloading and task allocation for cloudlet-assisted ad hoc mobile clouds

2016

Nowadays, although the data processing capabilities of the modern mobile devices are developed in a fast speed, the resources are still limited in terms of processing capacity and battery lifetime. Some applications, in particular the computationally intensive ones, such as multimedia and gaming, often require more computational resources than a mobile device can afford. One way to address such a problem is that the mobile device can offload those tasks to the centralized cloud with data centers, the nearby cloudlet or ad hoc mobile cloud. In this paper, we propose a data offloading and task allocation scheme for a cloudlet-assisted ad hoc mobile cloud in which the master device (MD) who ha…

A cloud based architecture to support Electronic Health Record.

2014

We introduce a novel framework of electronic healthcare enabled by a Cloud platform able to host both Hospital Information Systems (HIS) and Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems and implement an innovative model of Electronic Health Record (EHR) that is not only patient-oriented but also supports a better governance of the whole healthcare system. The proposed EHR model adopts the state of the art of the Cloud technologies, being able to join the different clinical data of the patient stored within the HISs and EMRs either placed into a local Data Center or hosted into a Cloud Platform enabling new directions of data analysis.

Adaptative Network Topology for Data Centers

2016

Data centers have an important role in supporting cloud computing services (such as email, social networking, web search, etc.) enterprise computing needs, and infrastructure-based services. Data center networking is a research topic that aims at improving the overall performances of the data centers. It is a topic of high interest and importance for both academia and industry. Several architectures such as FatTree, FiConn, DCel, BCube, and SprintNet have been proposed. However, these topologies try to improve the scalability without any concerns about energy that data centers use and the network infrastructure cost, which are critical parameters that impact the performances of data centers…

Context-aware vehicular cyber-physical systems with cloud support: architecture, challenges, and solutions

2014

[EN] The advances in wireless communication techniques, mobile cloud computing, and context-aware technologies boost a growing interest in the design, development, and deployment of vehicular networks for emerging applications. This leads to an increasing evolutionary tendency to change from vehicular networks toward cloud-assisted context-aware vehicular cyber-physical systems. In this article, we first propose a multi-layered context-aware architecture and introduce two crucial service components, vehicular social networks and context-aware vehicular security. Then we propose an application scenario regarding the context-aware dynamic parking services by illuminating the cloud-assisted ar…

Mobile cloud computing educational tool for image/video processing algorithms

2011

This paper shows the importance and benefit of coupling cloud computing with mobile especially due to power limitations that mobile devices exhibit. Moreover, the work done shows that mobile computing can be applied for educational purposes, where a tool for students termed Mobi4Ed is presented. This educational tool aims at exploiting the concept of cloud computing in the context of image and video processing, where students can assess several algorithms in real-time. Two possible system architectures are detailed, where one uses the cellular channel and the other uses the data channel. Consequently, one of the approaches is adopted and a detailed simulation is done where an Android client…
