The Korean domestic cloud market will reach a value of 2 trillion Korean won by 2014. The domestic market is expected to grow rapidly in size despite the fact that there exist activation barriers in mobile cloud services, concerns about the reliability of service, and concerns about security and confidentiality of data. Under these circumstances, existing IT security technologies may be be utilized to provide sufficient response characteristics. Despite this, they must be optimized for mobile cloud computing and enhanced to mitigate inherent security flaws. In this study, mobile cloud security is covered along with use cases that cover the cases where mobile devices are particularly vulnerable and suggest ways to mitigate security vulnerabilities.

Task scheduling is one of the key issues in improving system performance and optimizing resource management in cloud computing environment. In order to provide appropriate services for heterogeneous users, we propose a novel task scheduling strategy with service differentiation, in which the delay sensitive tasks are assigned to the rapid cloud with high-speed processing, whereas the fault sensitive tasks are assigned to the reliable cloud with service restoration. Considering that a user can receive service from either local SaaS (Software as a Service) servers or public IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) cloud, we establish a hybrid queueing network based system model. With the assumption of Poisson arriving process, we analyze the system model in steady state. Moreover, we derive the performance measures in terms of average response time of the delay sensitive tasks and utilization of VMs (Virtual Machines) in reliable cloud. We provide experimental results to validate the proposed strategy and the system model. Furthermore, we investigate the Nash equilibrium behavior and the social optimization behavior of the delay sensitive tasks. Finally, we carry out an improved intelligent searching algorithm to obtain the optimal arrival rate of total tasks and present a pricing policy for the delay sensitive tasks.

Openstack is an open source software that enables developers to build IaaS(Infrastructure as a Service) cloud platforms. Openstack can virtualize servers, networks and storages, and provide them to users. This paper proposes the structure of Openstack cloud storage system applying Infiniband to solve bottlenecking that may occur between server and storage nodes when the server performs an I/O operation. Furthermore, we implement all flash array based high-performance Cinder storage volumes which can be used at Nova virtual machines by applying distributed RAID-60 structures to three 8-bay SSD storages and show that Infiniband storage networks applied to Openstack is suitable for virtualizing high-performance storage.

In a cloud computing environment, various solutions were introduced to provide the service to users such as Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), Software as a Service (SaaS) and Desktop as a Service (DaaS). Nowadays, Mobile as a Service (MaaS) to provide the mobility in a cloud environment. In other words, users must have access to data and applications even when they are moving. Thus, to support the mobility to a mobile Thin-Client is the key factor. Related works to support the mobility for mobile devices were Mobile IPv6 and Proxy Mobile IPv6 which showed performance drawbacks such as packet loss during hand-over which could be very critical when collaborating with cloud computing environment. The proposed model in this paper deploys middleware and replica servers to support the data transmission among cloud and PMIPv6 domain. It supports efficient mobility during high-speed movement as well as high-density of mobile nodes in local mobility anchor. In this paper, through performance evaluation, the proposed scheme shows the cost comparison between previous PMIPv6 and verifies its significant efficiency.

Cloud computing markets are rapidly growing as cost savings and business innovation are being carried out through ICT worldwide. In line with this paradigm, the nation is striving to introduce cloud computing in various areas, including the public sector and defense sector, through various research. In the defense sector, DIDC was established in 2015 by integrating military, naval, air and military computing centers, and it provides cloud services in the form of IaaS to some systems in the center. In DIDC and various future cloud defense systems, It is an important issue to ensure availability in cloud defense systems in the defense sector because system failures such as network delays and system resource failures are directly linked to the results of battlefields. However, ensuring the highest levels of availability for all systems in the defense cloud can be inefficient, and the efficiency that can be gained from deploying a cloud system can be reduced. In this paper, we classify and define the level of availability of defense cloud systems step by step, and propose the strategy of introducing Erasure coding and failure acceptance systems, and disaster recovery system technology according to each level of availability acquisition.

The recent appearance and evolution of cloud service including IaaS(Infrastructure as a Service), PaaS(Platform as a Service) and SaaS(Software as a Service) is potentially one of the major advances in information and communication technology. While a lot of studies are currently taking place in the technology itself, there is an equally urgent need for understanding and researching the business-related issues surrounding cloud service. As more and more individuals and companies use the cloud service, their concerns are beginning to grow about just how safe and reliable an environment it is. This paper focus on SaaS as an one of the important cloud service. For successful implementation of SaaS service, it is necessary to establish the certification systems to ensure safety and reliability of SaaS. This paper provides the safe and reliable framework for systematic SaaS certification systems. In order to develop it, the critical issues related to service quality and certification of SaaS service are identified and the systematic framework for certification systems of SaaS service and service provider domains are developed. An evaluation methodology for the developed certification systems is also proposed.

클라우드 컴퓨팅 기술로 인한 정보기술 영역의 파라다임의 변혁에 따라서, 다양한 산업의 기업들이 운영비용 및 투자비용 절감효과를 목적으로 클라우드 컴퓨팅을 도입하며 성공 사례를 논의하고 있으나, 기업의 프로세스 개선을 위하여 클라우드 서비스를 이용하는 접근방법은 아직 국내 사례에서는 부족하다. 본 논문에서는 클라우드 서비스를 관리하는 CSB(Cloud Service Brokerage) 플랫폼에서 서비스의 Orchestration을 지원하는 SOA(Service Oriented Architecture)의 WS-BPEL 기술을 적용하여 프로세스 자동화를 구축할 수 있는 아키텍처를 제시하였다. 클라우드의 SaaS 도입 시 어플리케이션뿐만 아니라, 인프라 서비스를 이용하는 IaaS 적용과 다른 프로세스와의 호환과 연동 작업을 구축하는 PaaS를 같이 적용함으로써 비즈니스 프로세스의 가치 향상이 가능하도록 본 논문에서는 클라우드 서비스 브로커 도입에 대한 시스템 아키텍처를 제안한다.

With the recent increase in interest in the open science movement in science and technology fields such as open access, open data, and open source, the movement to share and utilize publicly funded research products is materializing and revitalizing. In line with this trend, many efforts are being made to establish and revitalize a system for sharing and utilizing research data, which is a key resource for research in Korea. These efforts are mainly focused on collecting research data by field and institution, and linking it with DataON, a national research data platform, to search and utilize it. However, developed countries are building a system that can share and utilize not only such research data but also various types of R&D-related computing resources such as IaaS, PaaS, SaaS, and MLaaS. EOSC (European Open Science Cloud), ARDC (Australian Research Data Commons), and CSTCloud (China S&T Cloud) are representative examples. In Korea, the Korea Research Data Commons (KRDC) is designed and a core framework is being developed to facilitate the sharing of these computing resources. In this study, the necessity, concept, composition, and future plans of KRDC are introduced.

Users are provided infrastructure such as CPU, memory, network, and storage as IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) service on cloud computing environments. However storage instances cannot support the maximum storage capacity that SQL servers can use, because the capacity of instances provided by service providers is usually limited. In this paper, we propose a method of securing mass storage capacity for SQL servers by sharing network disks with limited storage capacity. We confirmed through experiments that it is possible to secure mass storage capacity, which exceeds the maximum storage capacity provided by an instance with Amazon EBS on Amazon EC2 Windows environments, and it is possible to improve the overall performance of the SQL servers by increasing the disk capacity and performance.
