Cloud computing is the next stage in the web service evolution, providing computing power, applications, business processes etc., delivered as a service on demand. Nowadays the online service delivery progresses and gets into different areas of life. The information and communication technologies thrust permanently in the education. It is quite natural for the cloud computing to find their application.In a cloud computing system, there's a significant workload shift. Local computers have no longer to run applications. Instead of them the network of computers, which forms the cloud, handles it. Besides, the hardware and software requirements on the user's computer decrease. The only thing that the user needs to run the cloud computing service is a Web browser and an Internet connection.E-learning is popularized and enforced in many training institutions, especially in the distance and part-time learning. It is universal and can be used both in the education process and in training employees, enhancing their qualification, competence check, and more.In the paper is discussed the cloud model, which has five essential characteristics, three service models and four deployment models.Google Apps is popular public Software as a Service (SaaS) cloud service model, which provides software applications developed by Google. The Google Apps package includes communication tools – Gmail, Calendar, Hangout and Google+, personal disk space, which can be shared – Drive, applications for collaborative work – Docs, Sheets, Slides, Forms and Sites. All applications are costless after free registration and login to the platform. The Google Apps can be used to develop shared Web-based learning materials. The main advantage is that they are free, accessible at any time, from anywhere and any device. Another feature is that they do not have specific hardware and software requirements. A device with an Internet connection and a browser is enough.A detailed overview of Google Apps tools is made in the article and their application in the e-learning is proposed. In conclusion of the study is summarized that the Google Apps package can be: 1) used to prepare and share learning materials; 2) used to create knowledge tests, quizzes and receive any feedback information; 3) used for collaborative work with the tools; 4) used to manage and share events calendar, timetables, to-do-lists and more; 5) used for practical exercises to work with office tools. All this is free and publicly accessible at any time, from any device.

   The concept of implementing e-government systems is growing widely all around the world and becoming an interest to all governments. However, governments are still seeking for effective ways to implement e-government systems properly and successfully. As services of e-government increased and citizens’ demands expand, the e-government systems become more costly to satisfy the growing needs. The cloud computing is a technique that has been discussed lately as a solution to overcome some problems that an e-government implementation or expansion is going through. This paper is a proposal of a  new model for e-government on basis of cloud computing. E-Government Public Cloud Model EGPCM, for e-government is related to public cloud computing.

NOTE: THIS ARTICLE WAS PUBLISHED WITH THE INFORMING SCIENCE INSTITUTE. Aim/Purpose................................................................................................................................................................................................. The main objective of the current study is to develop a business model for service providers of cloud computing which is designed based on circular economy principles and can ensure the sustainable consumption. Background Even though the demand for cloud computing technology is increasing day by day in all over the world, the current the linear economy principles are incapable to ensure society development needs. To consider the benefit of the society and the vendors at the same time, the principles of circular economy can address this issue. Methodology................................................................................................................................................................................................. An extensive literature review on consumption, sustainable consumption, circular economic, business model, and cloud computing were conducted. the proposed model of Osterwalder, Pigneur and Tucci (2005) is admitted designing the circular business model. Contribution................................................................................................................................................................................................. The proposed model of the study is the contribution of this study where provides the guidelines for the cloud computing service providers to achieve both their economic profits and the society’ needs. Findings Finding reveals that if the cloud computing service providers design their business model based on the “access” principle of circular economy, they can meet their economic profits and the society’ needs at a same time. Recommendations for Practitioners.............................................................................................................................................................. It is recommended to the startup and the existing businesses to utilize the proposed model of this study to reach a sustainable development. Recommendation for Researchers................................................................................................................................................................ It proposes a new circular business model and its linkages with community building. Impact on Society............................................................................................................................................................................................ The proposed model of the study provides guidelines to the cloud computing service providers to design a business model which is able not only to meet their economic profit, but also to meet the society’s and customers’ benefits. Future Research............................................................................................................................................................................................... Future researches can build on this research model which proposed in this study to examine the limitations of this model by using empirical researches.

In order to solve the trust problems between users and cloud computing service providers in cloud computing services, the existing trust evaluation technology and access control technology in the cloud computing service are analyzed. And the evaluation index of cloud computing is also analyzed. Users can calculate the relevant indicators of cloud computing service according to their own business goals, and choose the appropriate cloud computing services according to their own trust need. In addition, the reliability assessment method of users based on the service process is proposed. Cloud computing access control system can be used for user credibility evaluation, and it can handle user access requests according to user's creditability. In the study, a cloud computing service trust evaluation tool is designed, and the modeling and architecture designs of trust evaluation are also given. The effectiveness of the method is verified by experiments on cloud computing service evaluation methods.

Cloud computing is currently emerging as an ever-changing, growing paradigm that models “everything-as-a-service.” Virtualised physical resources, infrastructure, and applications are supplied by service provisioning in the cloud. The evolution in the adoption of cloud computing is driven by clear and distinct promising features for both cloud users and cloud providers. However, the increasing number of cloud providers and the variety of service offerings have made it difficult for the customers to choose the best services. By employing successful service provisioning, the essential services required by customers, such as agility and availability, pricing, security and trust, and user metrics can be guaranteed by service provisioning. Hence, continuous service provisioning that satisfies the user requirements is a mandatory feature for the cloud user and vitally important in cloud computing service offerings. Therefore, we aim to review the state-of-the-art service provisioning objectives, essential services, topologies, user requirements, necessary metrics, and pricing mechanisms. We synthesize and summarize different provision techniques, approaches, and models through a comprehensive literature review. A thematic taxonomy of cloud service provisioning is presented after the systematic review. Finally, future research directions and open research issues are identified.
