Cloud computing is increasingly being regarded as a key enabler of the ‘democratization of science’, because on-demand, highly scalable cloud computing facilities enable researchers anywhere to carry out data-intensive experiments. In the context of natural language processing (NLP), algorithms tend to be complex, which makes their parallelization and deployment on cloud platforms a non-trivial task. This study presents a new, unique, cloud-based platform for large-scale NLP research—GATECloud. net. It enables researchers to carry out data-intensive NLP experiments by harnessing the vast, on-demand compute power of the Amazon cloud. Important infrastructural issues are dealt with by the platform, completely transparently for the researcher: load balancing, efficient data upload and storage, deployment on the virtual machines, security and fault tolerance. We also include a cost–benefit analysis and usage evaluation.

Cloud computing technology is a relatively new concept of providing scalable and virtualized resources, software and hardware on demand to consumers. It presents a new technology to deliver computing resources as a service. It offers a variety of benefits like services on demand and provisioning and suffers from several weaknesses. In fact, security presents a major obstacle in cloud computing adoption. In this paper, the authors will deal with security problems in cloud computing systems and show how to solve these problems using a quantitative security risk assessment model named Multi-dimensional Mean Failure Cost (M2FC). In fact, they summarize first security issues related to cloud computing environments and then propose a generic framework that analysis and evaluate cloud security problems and then propose appropriate countermeasures to solve these problems.

Cloud computing is the latest trend in large-scale distributed computing. It provides diverse services on demand to distributive resources such asservers, software, and databases. One of the challenging problems in cloud data centers is to manage the load of different reconfigurable virtual machines over one another. Thus, in the near future of cloud computing field, providing a mechanism for efficient resource management will be very significant. Many load balancing algorithms have been already implemented and executed to manage the resources efficiently and adequately. The objective of this paper is to analyze shortcomings of existing algorithms and implement a new algorithm which will give optimized load balancingresult.

<p><strong>CONDE (Climate simulation ON DEmand)</strong> is the final result of our work and research about climate and meteorological simulations over an HPC as a Service (HPCaaS) model. On our architecture we run very large climate ensemble simulations using a, adapted, WRF version that is executed on-demand and that can be deployed over different Cloud Computing environments (like Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure or Google Cloud) and that uses BOINC as middleware for the tasks execution and results gathering. Here, we also present as well some basic examples of applications and experiments to verify that the simulations ran in our system are correct and show valid results. </p>
