The evolution of modern computing systems has lead to the emergence of Cloud computing. Cloud computing facilitates on-demand establishment of dynamic, large scale, flexible, and highly scalable computing infrastructures. However, as with any other emerging technology, security underpins widespread adoption of Cloud computing. This paper presents the state-of-the-art about Cloud computing along with its different deployment models. The authors also describe various security challenges that can affect an organization’s decision to adopt Cloud computing. Finally, the authors list recommendations to mitigate with these challenges. Such review of state-of-the-art about Cloud computing security can serve as a useful barometer for an organization to make an informed decision about Cloud computing adoption.

We analyze and compare five deep-learning neural architectures to manage the problem of irony and sarcasm detection for the Italian language. We briefly analyze the model architectures to choose the best compromise between performances and complexity. The obtained results show the effectiveness of such systems to handle the problem by achieving 93\% of F1-Score in the best case. As a case study, we also illustrate a possible embedding of the neural systems in a cloud computing infrastructure to exploit the computational advantage of using such an approach in tackling big data.

Pandemic brought new forms of remote education into the discussion. However, facilitating students' access to good computing infrastructure is not a widespread task. This paper presents a report on the use of computing resources in the AWS cloud by students in the Operating Systems class during the pandemic, from March to July 2020. The use of these computational resources was essential to consolidate some of the concepts covered in the course and, at the same time, to complement the students' knowledge about cloud computing. The results of this survey were very positive. Students said they learned more about the resources available in the cloud, the potential of cloud computing, and how to use it. Besides, they were able to create their remote infrastructure to carry out the work proposed in the Operating System class.
