Smart vehicles participating in VANET have high computing capabilities which lead the demand to support more applications that give safety and effective measures to people. The vehicles in VANET are taking the help of cloud services for communication, computation and storage which benefits in economical way and we call that as vehicular cloud computing (VCC). Due to certain limitations in VCC and also demand for more quality of service applications in smart vehicles a new paradigm called vehicular fog computing (VFC) is proposed which helps to overcome limitations in VCC and provide more quality services to users participating in VANET. Some of the security challenges and possible attacks in VFC are also stated.  

The introduction of cloud computing has revolutionized business and technology. Cloud computing has merged technology and business creating an almost indistinguishable framework. Cloud computing has utilized various techniques that have been vital in reshaping the way computers are used in business, IT, and education. Cloud computing has replaced the distributed system of using computing resources to a centralized system where resources are easily shared between user and organizations located in different geographical locations. Traditionally the resources are usually stored and managed by a third-party, but the process is usually transparent to the user. The new technology led to the introduction of various user needs such as to search the cloud and associated databases. The development of a selection system used to search the cloud such as in the case of ELECTRE IS and Skyline; this research will develop a system that will be used to manage and determine the quality of service constraints of these new systems with regards to networked cloud computing. The method applied will mimic the various selection system in JAVA and evaluate the Quality of service for multiple cloud services. The FogTorch search tool will be used for quality service management of three cloud services.

Fog computing is a term coined by networking giant Cisco. It is a new paradigm that extends the cloud computing model by conferring computation, storage, and application services at the periphery of networks. Fog computing is a gifted paradigm of cloud computing that facilitates the mobility, portability, heterogeneity, and processing of voluminous data. These distinct features of fog help to reduce latency and make it suitable for location-sensitive applications. Fog computing features raise new security concerns and challenges. The existing cloud security has not been implemented directly due to mobility, heterogeneity of fog nodes. As we know, IoT has to process large amount of data quickly; therefore, it has various functionality-driven applications that escalate security concerns. The primary aim of this chapter is to present the most recent security aspects such as authentication and trust, reputation-based trust model, rogue fog node and authentication at different level, security threats, challenges, and also highlights the future aspects of fog.

Cloud computing technology has gained the attention of researchers in recent years. Almost every application is using cloud computing in one way or another. Virtualization allows running many virtual machines on a single physical computer by sharing its resources. Users can store their data on datacenter and run their applications from anywhere using the internet and pay as per service level agreement documents accordingly. It leads to an increase in demand for cloud services and may decrease the quality of service. This paper presents a priority-based selection of virtual machines by cloud service provider. The virtual machines in the cloud datacenter are configured as Amazon EC2 and algorithm is simulated in cloud-sim simulator. The results justify that proposed priority-based virtual machine algorithm shortens the makespan, by 11.43 % and 5.81 %, average waiting time by 28.80 % and 24.50%, and cost of using the virtual machine by 21.24% and 11.54% as compared to FCFS and ACO respectively, hence improving quality of service.

Now a day’s IoT systems are being used in rapid rate, so much data is being generated by  massive ubiquitous things handling of that much data is not a simple issue it very critical task. Then again, despite the fact that that distributed computing has filled in as an efficient approach to process and store these information, in any case, challenges, for example, the expanding requests of ongoing or dormancy delicate applications and the impediment of system data transfer capacity, still can't be tackled by utilizing just cloud computing. Accordingly, another computing known as fog computing was proposed as extension of cloud computing. It brings the cloud services that are communication, computation and storage near to edge devices and users so latency can be reduced. In this papers details of fog computing are discussed.

Recently, a massive migration of enterprise applications to the cloud has been recorded in the IT world. One of the challenges of cloud computing is Quality-of-Service management, which includes the adoption of appropriate methods for allocating cloud-user applications to virtual resources, and virtual resources to the physical resources. The effective allocation of resources in cloud data centers is also one of the vital optimization problems in cloud computing, particularly when the cloud service infrastructures are built by lightweight computing devices. In this paper, we formulate and present the task allocation and virtual machine placement problems in a single cloud/fog computing environment, and propose a task allocation algorithmic solution and a Genetic Algorithm Based Virtual Machine Placement as solutions for the task allocation and virtual machine placement problem models. Finally, the experiments are carried out and the results show that the proposed solutions improve Quality-of-Service in the cloud/fog computing environment in terms of the allocation cost.

A Fog Computing architecture consists of edge nodes that generate and possibly pre-process (sensor) data, fog nodes that do some processing quickly and do any actuations that may be needed, and cloud nodes that may perform further detailed analysis for long-term and archival purposes. Processing of a batch of input data is distributed into sub-computations which are executed at the different nodes of the architecture. In many applications, the computations are expected to preserve the order in which the batches arrive at the sources. In this paper, we discuss mechanisms for performing the computations at a node in correct order, by storing some batches temporarily and/or dropping some batches. The former option causes a delay in processing and the latter option affects Quality of Service (QoS). We bring out the trade-offs between processing delay and storage capabilities of the nodes, and also between QoS and the storage capabilities.
