Fog Computing: A Taxonomy, Survey and Future Directions
In recent years, the number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices/sensors has
increased to a great extent. To support the computational demand of real-time
latency-sensitive applications of largely geo-distributed IoT devices/sensors,
a new computing paradigm named "Fog computing" has been introduced. Generally,
Fog computing resides closer to the IoT devices/sensors and extends the
Cloud-based computing, storage and networking facilities. In this chapter, we
comprehensively analyse the challenges in Fogs acting as an intermediate layer
between IoT devices/ sensors and Cloud datacentres and review the current
developments in this field. We present a taxonomy of Fog computing according to
the identified challenges and its key features.We also map the existing works
to the taxonomy in order to identify current research gaps in the area of Fog
computing. Moreover, based on the observations, we propose future directions
for research
Autonomic Cloud Computing: Open Challenges and Architectural Elements
As Clouds are complex, large-scale, and heterogeneous distributed systems,
management of their resources is a challenging task. They need automated and
integrated intelligent strategies for provisioning of resources to offer
services that are secure, reliable, and cost-efficient. Hence, effective
management of services becomes fundamental in software platforms that
constitute the fabric of computing Clouds. In this direction, this paper
identifies open issues in autonomic resource provisioning and presents
innovative management techniques for supporting SaaS applications hosted on
Clouds. We present a conceptual architecture and early results evidencing the
benefits of autonomic management of Clouds.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figures, conference keynote pape
Management and Service-aware Networking Architectures (MANA) for Future Internet Position Paper: System Functions, Capabilities and Requirements
Future Internet (FI) research and development threads have recently been gaining momentum all over the world and as such the international race to create a new generation Internet is in full swing: GENI, Asia Future Internet, Future Internet Forum Korea, European Union Future Internet Assembly (FIA). This is a position paper identifying the research orientation with a time horizon of 10 years, together with the key challenges for the capabilities in the Management and Service-aware Networking Architectures (MANA) part of the Future Internet (FI) allowing for parallel and federated Internet(s)
