An adaptive approach to better load balancing in a consumer-centric cloud environment (2016)
Journal Article
Liu, Q., Cai, W., Shen, J., Liu, X., & Linge, N. (2016). An adaptive approach to better load balancing in a consumer-centric cloud environment. IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics, 62(3), 243-250. https://doi.org/10.1109/tce.2016.7613190

Pay-as-you-consume, as a new type of cloud computing paradigm, has become increasingly popular since a large number of cloud services are gradually opening up to consumers. It gives consumers a great convenience, where users no longer need to buy the... Read More about An adaptive approach to better load balancing in a consumer-centric cloud environment.

A speculative approach to spatial-temporal efficiency with multi-objective optimization in a heterogeneous cloud environment (2016)
Journal Article
Liu, Q., Cai, W., Shen, J., Fu, Z., Liu, X., & Linge, N. (2016). A speculative approach to spatial-temporal efficiency with multi-objective optimization in a heterogeneous cloud environment. Security and Communication Networks, 9(17), 4002-4012. https://d

A heterogeneous cloud system, for example, a Hadoop 2.6.0 platform, provides distributed but cohesive services with rich features on large-scale management, reliability, and error tolerance. As big data processing is concerned, newly built cloud clus...

A Classification and Comparison Framework for Cloud Service Brokerage Architectures (2016)
Journal Article
Fowley, F., Pahl, C., Jamshidi, P., Fang, D., & Liu, X. (2016). A Classification and Comparison Framework for Cloud Service Brokerage Architectures. IEEE Transactions on Cloud Computing, 6(2), 358-371. https://doi.org/10.1109/tcc.2016.2537333

Cloud service brokerage and related management and marketplace concepts have been identified as key concerns for future cloud technology development and research. Cloud service management is an important building block of cloud architectures that can... Read More about A Classification and Comparison Framework for Cloud Service Brokerage Architectures.
