P2cp: A New Cloud Storage Model To Enhance Performance Of Cloud Services, Zhe Sun, Jun Shen, Ghassan Beydoun Dec 2012

P2cp: A New Cloud Storage Model To Enhance Performance Of Cloud Services, Zhe Sun, Jun Shen, Ghassan Beydoun

Associate Professor Ghassan Beydoun

This paper presents a storage model named Peer to Cloud and Peer (P2CP). Assuming that the P2CP model follows the Poisson process or Little’s law, we prove that the speed and availability of P2CP is generally better than that of the pure Peer to Peer (P2P) model, the Peer to Server, Peer (P2SP) model or the cloud model. A key feature of our P2CP is that it has three data transmission tunnels: the cloud-user data transmission tunnel, the clients’ data transmission tunnel, and the common data transmission tunnel. P2CP uses the cloud storage system as a common storage system. When …


Evaluating Usage Of Wsmo And Owl-S In Semantic Web Services, Lina Azleny Kamaruddin, Jun Shen, Ghassan Beydoun Dec 2012

Evaluating Usage Of Wsmo And Owl-S In Semantic Web Services, Lina Azleny Kamaruddin, Jun Shen, Ghassan Beydoun

Applying ontologies is the most promising approach to semantically enrich Web services. To facilitate this, two efforts contributed the most in enabling the creation of ontologies: OWL-S from the US and WSMO in Europe. These two compete and promote their ontologies from the design perspective, reflecting their inventors’ bias but not offering much help to Web service developers using them. To bypass existing biases and enable evaluation of ontologies expressed in these two languages, this paper provides a study of the two important facilitators, OWL-S and WSMO, surveying their usage in several SWS Projects and identifying their respective and outstanding …
