Background: With the immense significance of cloud computing over the decade, different IT companies offer varieties of cloud services. Objective: The selection of cloud services from the expanding range of Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) makes it difficult for the Cloud Consumers (CCs) to choose a CSP based on their preferences. Methods: In this context, this paper proposes an efficient trust management architecture for cloud service selection and put forward Combined Preference Ranking Algorithm (CPRA) for initial ranking of CSPs and their services before doing any transaction in the past based on CCs requirements. Results: The proposed trust management architecture prompts the CSPs to improve the Quality of Service (QoS) by adhering to Service Level Agreement (SLA). Conclusion: The experimental results show that compared with other ranking approaches CPRA generates the accurate ranking list of CSPs with minimal execution time.

Decision making remains a prominent issue in all the problem domains. To make better decisions, multiple factors of the given problem need to be considered and evaluated. Multi-criteria decision-making methods have been used popularly for solving decision-making problems characterized by multiple factors. When multiple factors are considered, it is recommended to categorize the factors into the main criteria and sub-criteria. In this paper, GRAP-an integrated ranking algorithm has been developed by combining Grey Relational Analysis, Rank Sum, and Preference Ranking Organization Method Enrichment Evaluation methods (PROMETHEE) to solve decision-making problems. The weights of the sub-criteria are calculated using the Rank Sum method. Grey Relational Analysis method is used to convert the sub-criteria values into main criteria values in the form of evaluation scores of alternatives. The final ranking scores of the alternatives are obtained using the PROMETHEE method. A decision model is developed using the proposed GRAP algorithm and applied to the Job Profile selection case study. The developed decision model showed much better results compared to other MCDM approaches namely the Simple Additive Weight method, TOPSIS, VIKOR, and Complex Proportional Assessment (COPRAS). Further, a sanity check has been carried out by comparing the results of the decision model with experts’ opinions.

Major Progress

The use CCD detectors has allowed a major progress in abundance derivations for globular cluster stars in the last years. Abundances deduced from high dispersion spectra now correlates well with other abundance indicators. I discuss some problems concerning the derivation of accurate metal abundances for globular clusters using high dispersion spectra from both the old photographic and the most recent CCD data. The discrepant low abundances found by Cohen (1980), from photographic material for M71 giants, are found to be due to the use of too high microturbulences.

Chromatin Structure And Dynamics

In the 30 years since the discovery of the nucleosome, our picture of it has come into sharp focus. The recent high-resolution structures have provided a wealth of insight into the function of the nucleosome, but they are inherently static. Our current knowledge of how nucleosomes can be reconfigured dynamically is at a much earlier stage. Here, recent advances in the understanding of chromatin structure and dynamics are highlighted. The ways in which different modes of nucleosome reconfiguration are likely to influence each other are discussed, and some of the factors likely to regulate the dynamic properties of nucleosomes are considered.
