Abstract The recent technological developments in information and communications technologies are promoting new studies and research in telemedicine area, revolutionizing the access, integration and sharing of medical information. For instance, many systems have been focusing on ubiquity through the use of mobile computing and on enhance users cooperation through usage of social networking paradigms. In this regard, the rise of new model of outsourcing computing resources, which is known as Cloud computing, creates new possibilities to explore their benefits to facilitate the sharing and remote access to medical information, anywhere and anytime. Moreover, the scalability and reliability offered by Cloud platforms fit well to the medical area requirements. This dissertation aimed to analyze the current state of the art of Cloud Computing, namely studying their viability to support telemedicine and tele- working scenarios. The proposal was focused in the medical imaging field. The work resulted in a Cloud computing solution, following the software as a service model, to support cooperative tele-imagiology networks. It is a solution that allows users to setup collaborative environments in the field of imagiology, targeting the acceleration and improvement of decision-making processes. The proposal contemplates also other important issues like, for instance, security and interoperability with actual medical imaging systems.

    FOR CIOS DECEMBER 29, 2014 Google Is A Strong Performer In Enterprise Public Cloud Platforms Excerpted From The Forrester Wave™: Enterprise Public Cloud Platforms, Q4 2014 by John R. Rymer and James Staten with Peter Burris, Christopher Mines, and Dominique Whittaker GOOGLE, NOW A FULL-SERVICE PLATFORM, IS RUNNING TO CATCH THE LEADERS Since our last analysis, Google has made significant improvements to its cloud platform — adding an IaaS service, innovated with new big data solutions (based on its homegrown dremel architecture), and added partners. Google is popular among web developers — we estimate that it has between 10,000 and 99,000 customers. But Google Cloud Platform lacks several key certifications, monitoring and security controls, and application services important to CIOs and provided by AWS and Microsoft.1 Google has also been slow to position its cloud platform as the home for applications that want to leverage the broad set of Google services such as Android, AdSense, Search, Maps, and so many other technologies. Look for that to be a key focus in 2015, and for a faster cadence of new features.

Our described approach is both ‘top down’ and ‘bottom up’; we begin by summarizing existing studies on the cloud market, and review how the EASI-CLOUDS project partners are positioned on the cloud value chain. We review emerging trends, concepts, business models and value drivers in the cloud market, and present results from a survey targeted at top cloud bloggers and cloud professionals. We then review how the EASI-CLOUDS infrastructure components create value both directly and by facilitating brokerage and federation. We then examine how cloud market opportunities can be grasped through different business models. Specifically, we examine value creation and value capture in different generic business models that may benefit from the EASI-CLOUDS infrastructure. We conclude by providing recommendations on how the different EASI-CLOUDS demonstrators may be commercialized through different business models. © EASI-CLOUDS Consortium. 2 Deliverable 1.5 – Final Business Models for EASI-CLOUDS v1.0 Table of contents Table of contents ...........................................................................................................................

  • Cloud Computing: a Taxonomy of Platform and Infrastructure-Level Offerings David Hilley College of Computing Georgia Institute of Technology
    Cloud Computing: A Taxonomy of Platform and Infrastructure-level Offerings David Hilley College of Computing Georgia Institute of Technology April 2009 Cloud Computing: A Taxonomy of Platform and Infrastructure-level Offerings David Hilley 1 Introduction Cloud computing is a buzzword and umbrella term applied to several nascent trends in the turbulent landscape of information technology. Computing in the “cloud” alludes to ubiquitous and inexhaustible on-demand IT resources accessible through the Internet. Practically every new Internet-based service from Gmail [1] to Amazon Web Services [2] to Microsoft Online Services [3] to even Facebook [4] have been labeled “cloud” offerings, either officially or externally. Although cloud computing has garnered significant interest, factors such as unclear terminology, non-existent product “paper launches”, and opportunistic marketing have led to a significant lack of clarity surrounding discussions of cloud computing technology and products. The need for clarity is well-recognized within the industry [5] and by industry observers [6]. Perhaps more importantly, due to the relative infancy of the industry, currently-available product offerings are not standardized. Neither providers nor potential consumers really know what a “good” cloud computing product offering should look like and what classes of products are appropriate. Consequently, products are not easily comparable. The scope of various product offerings differ and overlap in complicated ways – for example, Ama- zon’s EC2 service [7] and Google’s App Engine [8] partially overlap in scope and applicability. EC2 is more flexible but also lower-level, while App Engine subsumes some functionality in Amazon Web Services suite of offerings [2] external to EC2.

  • An Lc-Tools Tutirial
    An lc-tools Tutirial Roman Bogorodskiy [email protected] May 30, 2011 Contents 0.1 Introduction An lc-tools is a set of command line tools to manage various Cloud (aka IaaS) Providers. It’s written in Python and uses libcloud to interact with provider’s API.xx 0.2 Getting Started 0.2.1 Installing Dependencies The only external dependency is libcloud. Please visit libcloud download page to get information how to download and install it. Installing from PyPI Latest stable version of lc-tools could be installed from PyPI: easy_install lctools Installing from source To get latest development version you can checkout sources from project’s github page: git clone https://github.com/novel/lc-tools.git Now you should have all the sources and should be ready to proceed to installation. As lc-tools use setuptools installation process is fairly simple: $ cd lc-tools $ sudo python setup.py install This will install all the tools and you will be able to use them after configu- ration (you will know how to configure lc-tools in the next section: ??). However, there are some additional tools available in lc-tools that’s not installed by default – it’s various provider specific tools. 1 What are provider specific tools, you might ask. You see, libcloud is de- signed to provide an unified API to the cloud, so its model is almost an inter- section of APIs of various cloud providers. However, various provider can have its specific API calls, for example, provider Foo might have a call to return information how many servers could be created in your current account or, say, what’s the maximum allowed rate of requests to the API per minute.

The function of upload file is an important web page designs. Traditional file upload function for file upload function by HTML form and $_FILES system function, has the advantages of convenience, can cope with a relatively small file upload. The traditional HTML way has been difficult to meet the upload of the oversized file. Service not only to open a link waiting for this file is uploaded, but also to allocate the same size of memory to save this file. In the case of large concurrency may cause a great pressure on the server. This article is the use of HTML5 File API to upload video files in the original form on the basis of form, use the function of slice inside the HTML5 file API for the split file upload, to achieve the result of no refresh upload files. Have a valid practical significance. Introduction With the development of web technology, watch videos on the website has become an important forms of entertainment in the people's daily life.

  • Delivery Services Model of Cloud Computing: a Perspective Overview
    International Journal of Innovative Computing, Information and Control ICIC International c 2012 ISSN 1349-4198 Volume 8, Number 8, August 2012 pp. 5873{5884 DELIVERY SERVICES MODEL OF CLOUD COMPUTING: A PERSPECTIVE OVERVIEW Feng-Tse Lin and Chieh-Hung Huang Department of Applied Mathematics Chinese Culture University No. 55, Hwa-Kang Road, Yang-Min-Shan, Taipei 111, Taiwan [email protected] Received March 2011; revised August 2011 Abstract. Cloud computing is a consequence of economic, commercial, cultural and technological conditions that have combined to cause a disruptive shift in the IT industry towards a service-based economy. It is a style of computing where massively scalable IT- enabled capabilities are provided as a service over the network and give rise to the \As a Service" business. The evolution of Cloud computing can handle massive data as per on demand service. Supporting this transition is a range of technologies from cluster- ing to virtualization. This study presents an expanded delivery services model of Cloud computing for enterprise and business. The characteristics and the challenges of Cloud computing are analyzed and discussed. The offerings from some Cloud service providers are also outlined. Keywords: Cloud computing, Virtualization, Cloud infrastructure, Cloud services, Everything-as-a-Service 1. Introduction. In the IBM technical white paper of Cloud computing, the concept of Cloud computing has developed from earlier ideas such as grid and utility computing, and aims to provide a completely Internet-driven, dynamic and scalable service-oriented IT environment, which can be accessed from anywhere using any web-capable device [6]. With the Cloud computing technology, user's computer no longer has to do all the heavy computing process or data storage.
