The Kriging Cloud Computing Framework: Interpolation Of Topography By Cloud Computing With The Kriging Algorithm, Cheng-Tsan Lai, Sung-Shan Hsiao, Hui-Ming Fang, Edward H. Wang

Journal of Marine Science and Technology

Spatial information surveyed by photogrammetry, airborne LiDAR and Mobile Measurement System (MMS) above ground level can be analyzed by scientists using standard geostatistical methodologies such as ordinary Kriging and sequential Gaussian simulation to interpolate heterogeneities of profiles from sparse sample data. Proven effective by researchers, the Kriging algorithm model is used by commercial data analysis packages for instant interpolation. However, meaningful and reliable results only come with a comprehensive understanding of the variogram associated with valid mathematical functions. To capture spatial landscape variations from massive sample grids of satellite images, this paper presents a cloud computing-based automation approach to improve …

Synthesis Of Real-Time Cloud Applications For Internet Of Things, Slawomir Bak, Radoslaw Czarnecki, Stanislaw Deniziak

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This paper presents the methodology for the synthesis of real-time applications working in the ``Internet of Things'' environment. We propose the client-server architecture, where embedded systems act as smart clients and the Internet application is a server of the system. The architecture of the application conforms to the cloud computing model. Since centralized systems are prone to bottlenecks caused by accumulation of transmissions or computations, we propose the distributed architecture of the server and the methodology that constructs this architecture using Internet resources supported by a cloud provider. We assume that the function of the server is specified as a …
