This paper presents a novel web-based crowdsourcing platform for the assessment of the
subjective and objective quality of experience (QoE) of the video service in the cloud-server …

Large-scale distributed computing environments provide a vast amount of heterogeneous
computing resources from different sources for resource sharing and distributed computing …

Cloud computing provides platform for pay-per-use services, such as software, hardware,
and platforms. Previous cloud frameworks use fix policies that do not have the functionality …

The monitoring of QoS parameters in Services Computing as well as in Clouds has been a
functionality provided by all contemporary systems. As the optimization of energy …

This study presents a scalable and elastic distributed system for monitoring cloud
infrastructure based on a pure peer-to-peer architecture. Its distributed nature enables …

The computational grid is rapidly evolving into a service-oriented computing infrastructure
that facilitates resource sharing and large-scale problem solving over the Internet. Service …

One of the open issues in grid computing is efficient resource discovery. In this paper, we
propose a novel semantic-supported and agent-based decentralized grid resource …

Especially for sciences the provision of massive parallel CPU capacity is one of the most
attractive features of a grid. A major challenge in a distributed, inherently dynamic grid is …

The Internet has witnessed a steady and widespread increase in available idle computing
cycles and computing resources in general. Such available cycles simultaneously allow and …

Grid computing is a largely adopted paradigm to federate geographically distributed data
centers. Due to their size and complexity, grid systems are often affected by failures that may …
