Rouached, Alexandre Viejo, David Sánchez","doi":"10.4018/IJITWE.2018100105","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.4018/IJITWE.2018100105","url":null,"abstract":"This article describes how by using web service composition to model different business processes is a usual tendency in the industry. More specifically, web service composition enables to separate a certain process in different activities that must be executed following a certain order. Each activity has its own set of inputs and outputs and is executed by a certain web service hosted by a service provider which can be completely independent. Among all the applications in which web service composition may be applied, this article focuses on a cloud-based scenario in which a business wishes to outsource the execution of a certain complex service in exchange for some economical compensation. It is for this reason, among the different composition approaches that exist in the literature, this article focuses on the orchestrated one, in which a broker coordinates the composition. One of the main issues of orchestrated systems is the fact that the broker receives and learns all the input data needed to perform the requested complex service. This behavior may represent a serious privacy problem depending on the nature of the business process to be executed. In this article, a new privacy-preserving orchestrated Web service composition system based on a symmetric searchable encryption primitive is proposed. The main target of this new scheme is to protect the privacy of the business that wish to outsource their operations using a cloud-based solution in which the broker is honest but curious, this is, this entity tries to analyze data and message flows in order to learn all the possible sensitive information from the rest of participants in the system.","PeriodicalId":222340,"journal":{"name":"Int.

Security of cloud-based applications, especially for those applications with constant inbound and outbound user traffic is important. It becomes of the utmost importance to secure the data flowing between the cloud application and user systems against cyber criminals who launch Denial of Service (DoS) attacks. Existing research related to cloud security focuses on securing the flow of information on servers or between networks but there is a lack of research to mitigate Distributed Denial of Service attacks on cloud environments as presented by Buyya et al. and Fachkha, et al. In this article, the authors propose an algorithm and a Hybrid Cloud-based Secure Architecture to mitigate DDoS attacks. By proposing a three-tier cloud infrastructure with a two-tier defense system for separate Network and Application layers, the authors show that DDoS attacks can be detected and blocked before reaching the infrastructure hosting the Cloud applications.","PeriodicalId":222340,"journal":{"name":"Int.

Mobile app stores have created the opportunity for the users to publicly provide feedback on mobile apps that they have installed or used. In this way, users are involved in the design and development of mobile apps, which was done by designers and developers before. Online user reviews are a useful source to know the user's perception about mobile apps and thus provide a way of co-value creation. This article is conducted to investigate the factors affecting the acceptability of mobile Apps. Main purpose of this article is to use online reviews for construction of a model instead of using existing acceptance theories. The model proposed in this research is based on the analysis of reviews and app information extracted from the Google Play Store. The ratings and number of installs are two key indicators of the popularity of an app. Other characteristics like price, category and size also influence the user's selection of an app. The findings showed the appropriateness of the proposed model and hypotheses for evaluating mobile apps acceptability and popularity. This article provides mobile app developers and marketers with an insight into the mobile app popularity and acceptability dynamics.","PeriodicalId":222340,"journal":{"name":"Int. J. Inf. Technol.

Systems based on traditional indexes like B-tree, R-tree, Bitmap, inverted indexing techniques are not suitable for efficient query evaluation as these systems are based on simple key-value pair and used only for point queries. In cloud data repositories, point queries are not sufficient for query as a cloud consists of multidimensional data. For multidimensional query processing, many techniques have been developed. In this article, a dynamic double layer indexing structure with the help of a Skipnet overlay for global indexing and an Octree index technique for local indexing has been proposed. It has been concluded from the experiments that Skipnet-Octree performs better than the previous double-layer indexing technique for complex queries.","PeriodicalId":222340,"journal":{"name":"Int. J.

This article aims at providing a solution to store, query and analyze streaming data using Apache Kafka as the platform and twitter data as an example for analysis. A three-way classification method is proposed for sentimental analysis of twitter data that combines both the approaches for knowledge-based and machine-learning using three stages namely emotion classification, word classification and sentiment classification. The hybrid three-way classification approach was evaluated using a sample of five query strings on twitter and compared with existing emotion classifier, polarity classifier and Naïve Bayes classifier for sentimental analysis. The accuracy of the results of the proposed approach is superior when compared to existing approaches.","PeriodicalId":222340,"journal":{"name":"Int. J. Inf. Technol.

As the cloud is one of the emerging technology in the field of computing, it is used to provide various services to the user through the internet. One of the major concerns in cloud computing is accessibility of cloud. For estimating the availability of cloud, various load balancing algorithms are deployed in data centers of the cloud environment. Load balancing is a technique that distributes a signal load across various computers for optimizing resource usage, reducing response time, etc. There are different load balancing algorithms, for performing the load distribution across various centers. This article analyses different load balancing algorithms and develop a new algorithm for efficient load balancing. The proposed load balancing algorithm utilizes the concepts of web engineering to prioritize the request of end user using parsing technique, which will assign the resources to the end users based on the priority set by the data centers.","PeriodicalId":222340,"journal":{"name":"Int.

In the proposed approach, first clustering is performed to minimize the energy consumption and execution time during communication corresponding to precedence constraint tasks. Then cluster are scheduled is on the best available energy efficient resources. Finally, DVFS is applied in order to reduce energy consumption further when the nodes are in the idle and communication stage.
