Cloud computing has been envisioned as the definite and concerning solution to the rising storage costs of IT Enterprises. There are many cloud computing initiatives from IT giants such as Google, Amazon, Microsoft, IBM. Integrity monitoring is essential in cloud storage for the same reasons that data integrity is critical for any data centre. Data integrity is defined as the accuracy and consistency of stored data, in absence of any alteration to the data between two updates of a file or record.  In order to ensure the integrity and availability of data in Cloud and enforce the quality of cloud storage service, efficient methods that enable on-demand data correctness verification on behalf of cloud users have to be designed. To overcome data integrity problem, many techniques are proposed under different systems and security models. This paper will focus on some of the integrity proving techniques in detail along with their advantages and disadvantages.

Cloud computing is an on demand paradigm which provides a different kind of services to the cloud users. Cloud storage is the most popular service, as the data owners are free from the data management and storage overhead. However, the data owners’ concern about the security of the data. In order to address this issue, this paper presents an efficient security with an auditing scheme that guarantees the security of the data and preserve data integrity. In this paper, the cloud storage auditing model used efficient privacy preserving algorithm, namely Markle Hellman Knapsack Crypto-System (MHKCS) algorithm. This algorithm effectively improves the data integrity, confidentiality and security. Moreover, reduces the key generation time, encryption time and decryption time. The performance of MHKCS algorithm is calculated using evaluation metrics like encryption time, decryption time, key generation time and communication cost. The MHKCS algorithm achieved approximately 10% better performance in terms of encryption time than the existing methods RSA, MRSA, and MRSAC.

In recent year, mobile devices have become an indispensable product in our daily life. Extensive amount of mobile applications (Apps) have been developed and used on these devices. Restated, in terms of the Apps future development and popularization, to understand why people have willingness to pay for use certain Apps has apparently became an important issue. However, there are various homogeneity Apps, which people can easily find some free succedaneum for use. Consequently, it would be an interesting issue to realize individual's intention to pay for use the Apps. In this study, the authors conducted a survey in Taiwan to realize individuals' willingness to pay for Cloud Storage Service (CSS), since CSS is one of the frequently adopted App for most mobile device users. The results show that both the perceived service quality and conformity positively affect the perceived value and then increases the user's willingness to pay indirectly. In addition, the findings also support that the users' product knowledge about CSS produce negative moderating effects on the perceived value and the willingness of pay.

In recent years, people have paid more and more attention to cloud data. However, because users do not have absolute control over the data stored on the cloud server, it is necessary for the cloud storage server to provide evidence that the data are completely saved to maintain their control over the data. Give users all management rights, users can independently install operating systems and applications and can choose self-service platforms and various remote management tools to manage and control the host according to personal habits. This paper mainly introduces the cloud data integrity verification algorithm of sustainable computing accounting informatization and studies the advantages and disadvantages of the existing data integrity proof mechanism and the new requirements under the cloud storage environment. In this paper, an LBT-based big data integrity proof mechanism is proposed, which introduces a multibranch path tree as the data structure used in the data integrity proof mechanism and proposes a multibranch path structure with rank and data integrity detection algorithm. In this paper, the proposed data integrity verification algorithm and two other integrity verification algorithms are used for simulation experiments. The experimental results show that the proposed scheme is about 10% better than scheme 1 and about 5% better than scheme 2 in computing time of 500 data blocks; in the change of operation data block time, the execution time of scheme 1 and scheme 2 increases with the increase of data blocks. The execution time of the proposed scheme remains unchanged, and the computational cost of the proposed scheme is also better than that of scheme 1 and scheme 2. The scheme in this paper not only can verify the integrity of cloud storage data but also has certain verification advantages, which has a certain significance in the application of big data integrity verification.

Cloud computing is consistently proving to be the dominant architecture of the future, and mobile technology is the catalyst. By having the processing power and storage remotely accessible, the main focus of the terminal is now related to connectivity and user-interface. The success of cloud-based applications greatly depends on the throughput experienced by the end user, which is why transport protocols play a key role in mobile cloud computing. This chapter discusses the main issues encountered in cloud networks that affect connection-oriented transport protocols. These issues include, but are not limited to, large delay connections, bandwidth variations, power consumption, and high segment loss rates. To reduce these adverse effects, a set of proposed solutions are presented; furthermore, the advantages and disadvantages are discussed. Finally, suggestions are made for future mobile cloud computing transport-layer designs that address different aspects of the network, such as transparency, congestion-intensity estimation, and quality-of-service integration.
