State of The Art and Hot Aspects in Cloud Data Storage Security
Along with the evolution of cloud computing and cloud storage towards matu-
rity, researchers have analyzed an increasing range of cloud computing security
aspects, data security being an important topic in this area. In this paper, we
examine the state of the art in cloud storage security through an overview of
selected peer reviewed publications. We address the question of defining cloud
storage security and its different aspects, as well as enumerate the main vec-
tors of attack on cloud storage. The reviewed papers present techniques for key
management and controlled disclosure of encrypted data in cloud storage, while
novel ideas regarding secure operations on encrypted data and methods for pro-
tection of data in fully virtualized environments provide a glimpse of the toolbox
available for securing cloud storage. Finally, new challenges such as emergent
government regulation call for solutions to problems that did not receive enough
attention in earlier stages of cloud computing, such as for example geographical
location of data. The methods presented in the papers selected for this review
represent only a small fraction of the wide research effort within cloud storage
security. Nevertheless, they serve as an indication of the diversity of problems
that are being addressed
FogGIS: Fog Computing for Geospatial Big Data Analytics
Cloud Geographic Information Systems (GIS) has emerged as a tool for
analysis, processing and transmission of geospatial data. The Fog computing is
a paradigm where Fog devices help to increase throughput and reduce latency at
the edge of the client. This paper developed a Fog-based framework named Fog
GIS for mining analytics from geospatial data. We built a prototype using Intel
Edison, an embedded microprocessor. We validated the FogGIS by doing
preliminary analysis. including compression, and overlay analysis. Results
showed that Fog computing hold a great promise for analysis of geospatial data.
We used several open source compression techniques for reducing the
transmission to the cloud.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures, 1 table, 3rd IEEE Uttar Pradesh Section

Handling Confidential Data on the Untrusted Cloud: An Agent-based Approach
Cloud computing allows shared computer and storage facilities to be used by a
multitude of clients. While cloud management is centralized, the information
resides in the cloud and information sharing can be implemented via
off-the-shelf techniques for multiuser databases. Users, however, are very
diffident for not having full control over their sensitive data. Untrusted
database-as-a-server techniques are neither readily extendable to the cloud
environment nor easily understandable by non-technical users. To solve this
problem, we present an approach where agents share reserved data in a secure
manner by the use of simple grant-and-revoke permissions on shared data.Comment: 7 pages, 9 figures, Cloud Computing 201
Pervasive computing at tableside : a wireless web-based ordering system
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to introduce a wireless web-based ordering system called iMenu in the restaurant industry. Design/methodology/approach – By using wireless devices such as personal digital assistants and WebPads, this system realizes the paradigm of pervasive computing at tableside. Detailed system requirements, design, implementation and evaluation of iMenu are presented.Findings – The evaluation of iMenu shows it explicitly increases productivity of restaurant staff. It also has other desirable features such as integration, interoperation and scalability. Compared to traditional restaurant ordering process, by using this system customers get faster and better services, restaurant staff cooperate more efficiently with less working mistakes, and enterprise owners thus receive more business profits. Originality/value – While many researchers have explored using wireless web-based information systems in different industries, this paper presents a system that employs wireless multi-tiered web-based architecture to build pervasive computing systems. Instead of discussing theoretical issues on pervasive computing, we focus on practical issues of developing a real system, such as choosing of web-based architecture, design of input methods in small screens, and response time in wireless web-based systems.<br /
