An agility-oriented and fuzziness-embedded semantic model for collaborative cloud service search, retrieval and recommendation (2015)
Journal Article
Fang, D., Liu, X., Romdhani, I., Jamshidi, P., & Pahl, C. (2016). An agility-oriented and fuzziness-embedded semantic model for collaborative cloud service search, retrieval and recommendation. Future Generation Computer Systems, 56, 11-26. https://doi.or

Cloud computing enables a revolutionary paradigm of consuming ICT services. However, due to the inadequately described service information, users often feel confused while trying to find the optimal services. Although some approaches are proposed to...

Semantic description of cloud service agreements (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Greenwell, R., Liu, X., & Chalmers, K. (2015). Semantic description of cloud service agreements. In Science and Information Conference (SAI), 2015 (823-831). https://doi.org/10.1109/sai.2015.7237239

To provide cloud services as a utility there must be a mechanism for comprehensively and precisely specifying cloud service agreements to reduce differences in service perception between customers and suppliers. This paper proposes a description... Read More about Semantic description of cloud service agreements.

An approach to unified cloud service access, manipulation and dynamic orchestration via semantic cloud service operation specification framework (2015)
Journal Article
Fang, D., Liu, X., Romdhani, I., & Pahl, C. (2015). An approach to unified cloud service access, manipulation and dynamic orchestration via semantic cloud service operation specification framework. Journal of cloud computing: advances, systems and applica

Cloud computing offers various computational resources via convenient on-demand service provision. Currently, heterogeneous services and cloud resources are usually utilized and managed through diverse service portals. This significantly limits the e...

A Loosely-coupled Semantic Model for Efficient Cloud Service Search and Retrieval. (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Fang, D., Liu, X., & Romdhani, I. (2015). A Loosely-coupled Semantic Model for Efficient Cloud Service Search and Retrieval. In W. Zimmerman, Y. W. Lee, & C. Reich (Eds.), Cloud Computing 2014: the Fifth International Conference on Cloud Computing, Grids

As cloud services propagate along with the rapid development of cloud computing, issues raised in service selection and retrieval processes become increasingly critical. While many approaches are proposed on the specification and discovery of cloud s... Read More about A Loosely-coupled Semantic Model for Efficient Cloud Service Search and Retrieval..
