All aspects of human life have become increasingly dependent on data in the last few decades. The development of several applications causes an enormous issue on data volume in current years. This information must be safeguarded and kept in safe locations. Massive volumes of data have been safely stored with cloud computing. This technology is developing rapidly because of its immense potentials. As a result, protecting data and the procedures to be handled from attackers has become a top priority in order to maintain its integrity, confidentiality, protection, and privacy. Therefore, it is important to implement the appropriate security measures in order to prevent security breaches and vulnerabilities. An improved version of Modular Encryption Standard (IMES) based on layered modelling of safety mechanisms is the major focus of this paper's research work. Key generation in IMES is done using a logistic map, which estimates the values of the input data. The performance analysis demonstrates that proposed work performs better than commonly used algorithms against cloud security in terms of higher performance and additional qualitative security features. The results prove that the proposed IMES has 0.015s of processing time, where existing models have 0.017s to 0.022s of processing time for a file size of 256KB.

Possible links among cosmic ray, cloud, and climate have scientific uncertainties. The reputed topics have been highly controversial during several decades. A link between the atmospheric ionization by galactic cosmic rays (GCR), which is modulated by solar activities, and global cloud cover was firstly proposed in 1997. Some researchers suggested that the GCR can stimulate the formation of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) in the atmosphere, and then the higher CCN concentrations may lead to an increase of cloud cover, resulting in a cooling of the Earth's climate, and vise versa. The CLOUD (Cosmic leaving outdoor droplets) experiment was designed to study the effect of GCR on the formation of atmospheric aerosols and clouds under precisely controlled laboratory conditions. A state-of-the-art chamber experiment has greatly advanced our scientific understanding of the aerosol formation in early stage and its nucleation processes if the GCR effect is considered or not. Many studies on the climate-GCR (or space weather) connection including the CLOUD experiment have been carried out during the several decades. Although it may not be easy to clarify the physical connection, the recent scientific approaches such as the laboratory experiments or modeling studies give some implications that the research definitively contributed to reduce the scientific uncertainties of natural and anthropogenic aerosol radiative forcing as well as to better understand the formation processes of fine particulate matters as an important parameter of air quality forecast.

There is still large uncertainty in estimating aerosol indirect effect despite ever-escalating efforts and virtually exponential increase in published studies concerning aerosol-cloud-precipitation interactions (CAPI). Probably most uncertainty comes from a wide range of observational scales and different platforms inappropriately used, and inherent complex chains of CAPI. Therefore, well-designed field campaigns and data analysis are required to address how to attribute aerosol signals along with clouds and precipitation to the microphysical effects of aerosols. Basically, aerosol influences cloud properties at the microphysical scales, "process scale", but observations are generally made of bulk properties over a various range of temporal and spatial resolutions, "analysis scale" (McComiskey & Feingold, 2012). In the most studies, measures made within the wide range of scales are erroneously treated as equivalent, probably resulting in a large uncertainty in associated with CAPI. Therefore, issues associated with the disparities of the observational resolution particular to CAPI are briefly discussed. In addition, the dependence of CAPI on the cloud environment such as stability and adiabaticity, and observation characteristics with varying situations of CAPI are also addressed together with observation framework optimally designed for the Korean situation. Properly designed and observation-based CAPI studies will likely continue to accumulate new evidences of CAPI, to further help understand its fundamental mechanism, and finally to develop improved parameterization for cloud-resolving models and large scale models.

클라우드 컴퓨팅에서 서비스 제공자들은 다양한 어플리케이션들 중에서 재사용 특징과 공통성을 고려하여 개발하고 배포하며 서비스 사용자들은 어플리케이션을 구축하기 위해 서비스를 찾고 재사용한다. 그러므로 재사용성은 클라우드 서비스의 중요한 본질적인 특성이다. 서비스의 재사용성이 높으면, 투자대비 높은 수익을 올릴 수 있다. 클라우드 서비스는 기존의 소프트웨어 재사용성을 위한 품질모델은 전통적인 프로그래밍 패러다임에 나타나지 않는 특성을 가지고 있기 때문에 서비스 평가에 적용하기 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 클라우드 서비스 재사용성을 평가하기 위해 품질속성과 메트릭이 포함된 평가모델을 제시한다. 사례연구에서는 평가모델을 적용한 사례를 보여준다.

To solve the problems of heavy computing load and system transmission pressure in energy internet (EI), we establish a three-tier cloud-edge integrated EI network based on a cloud-edge collaborative computing to achieve the tradeoff between energy consumption and the system delay. A joint optimization problem for resource allocation and task offloading in the threetier cloud-edge integrated EI network is formulated to minimize the total system cost under the constraints of the task scheduling binary variables of each sensor node, the maximum uplink transmit power of each sensor node, the limited computation capability of the sensor node and the maximum computation resource of each edge server, which is a Mixed Integer Non-linear Programming (MINLP) problem. To solve the problem, we propose a joint task offloading and resource allocation algorithm (JTOARA), which is decomposed into three subproblems including the uplink transmission power allocation sub-problem, the computation resource allocation sub-problem, and the offloading scheme selection subproblem. Then, the power allocation of each sensor node is achieved by bisection search algorithm, which has a fast convergence. While the computation resource allocation is derived by line optimization method and convex optimization theory. Finally, to achieve the optimal task offloading, we propose a cloud-edge collaborative computation offloading schemes based on game theory and prove the existence of Nash Equilibrium. The simulation results demonstrate that our proposed algorithm can improve output performance as comparing with the conventional algorithms, and its performance is close to the that of the enumerative algorithm.

As a part of cloud computing technology, algorithms for cloud task scheduling place an important influence on the area of cloud computing in data centers. In our earlier work, we proposed DeepEnergyJS, which was designed based on the original version of the policy gradient and reinforcement learning algorithm. We verified its effectiveness through simulation experiments. In this study, we used the Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) algorithm to update DeepEnergyJS to DeepEnergyJSV2.0. First, we verify the convergence of the PPO algorithm on the dataset of Alibaba Cluster Data V2018. Then we contrast it with reinforcement learning algorithm in terms of convergence rate, converged value, and stability. The results indicate that PPO performed better in training and test data sets compared with reinforcement learning algorithm, as well as other general heuristic algorithms, such as First Fit, Random, and Tetris. DeepEnergyJSV2.0 achieves better energy efficiency than DeepEnergyJS by about 7.814%.

In the smart industry where data plays an important role, cloud computing is being used in a complex and advanced way as a convergence technology because it has and fits well with its strengths. Accordingly, in order to utilize artificial intelligence rather than human beings for quality management of cloud computing services, a consistent standardization method of data collected from various nodes in various areas is required. Therefore, this study analyzed technologies and cases for incorporating artificial intelligence into specific services through previous studies, suggested a plan to use artificial intelligence to comprehensively standardize data in quality management of cloud computing services, and then verified it through case studies. It can also be applied to the artificial intelligence learning model that analyzes the risks arising from the data formalization method presented in this study and predicts the quality risks that are likely to occur. However, there is also a limitation that separate policy development for service quality management needs to be supplemented.

Autonomous weapon systems act according to artificial intelligence-based judgement based on recognition through various sensors. Test and evaluation for various scenarios is required depending on the characteristics that artificial intelligence-based judgement is made. As a part of this approach, this paper proposed a LiDAR point cloud augmentation method for mixed-reality based test and evaluation. The augmentation process is achieved by mixing real and virtual LiDAR signals based on the virtual LiDAR synchronized with the pose of the autonomous weapon system. For realistic augmentation of test and evaluation purposes, appropriate intensity values were inserted when generating a point cloud of a virtual object and its validity was verified. In addition, when mixing the generated point cloud of the virtual object with the real point cloud, the proposed method enhances realism by considering the occlusion phenomenon caused by the insertion of the virtual object.
