Cloud, grid, P2P and internet computing: Recent trends and future directions

Excerpt

During the last decades, many researchers in cloud, grid, P2P and Internet computing community have been devoted to develop new and efficient algorithms and architectures. These technologies have been emerging as new paradigms for solving complex problems by enabling large-scale aggregation and sharing of computational resources and data. The effort has resulted in advances in this new paradigm for high performance computing systems. Nevertheless, there are still many research issues need to be addressed in the area of cloud, grid, P2P and Internet computing. This Special Issue aims at providing a forum to bring together researchers for sharing and exchanging cloud, grid, P2P and Internet computing related research, technologies, experience, and lessons for building clouds and grids of interoperability and coordination capabilities and services. We believe this SI will help the research community to inspire their novel ideas in the current state of cloud-grid-P2P interoperability issues. In addition, the SI will help to define the future goals and services that cloud and grid need to support in various intensive commercial and enterprise applications. …
