A Stochastic Model to Investigate Data Center Performance and QoS in IaaS Cloud Computing Systems

A Stochastic Model to Investigate Data Center Performance and  QoS in IaaS Cloud Computing Systems Cloud data center management is a key problem due to the numerous and heterogeneous strategies that can be applied, ranging from the VM placement to the federation with other clouds. Performanceevaluation of cloud computing infrastructures is required to predict and quantify the cost-benefit of a strategy portfolio and the corresponding quality of service (QoS) […]


Accuracy-Constrained Privacy-Preserving Access Control Mechanism for Relational Data

Accuracy-Constrained Privacy-Preserving Access Control  Mechanism for Relational Data Access control mechanisms protect sensitive information from unauthorized users. However, when sensitive information is shared and a Privacy Protection Mechanism (PPM) is not in place, an authorized user can still compromise the privacy of a person leading to identity disclosure. A PPM can use suppression and generalization of relational data to anonymize and satisfy privacy requirements, e.g., k-anonymity and l-diversity, against […]
