The history of computers initially started with humans using tools like pebbles and notches in sticks to count objects. The human aspect of computers is that they wanted a way to do calculations, which includes adding and multiplying multiple numbers. The manual calculator was one of beginning stages of computer history, even though humans were the ones who had to perform the calculations. The manual computer had the abacus, which was a frame that contains beads mounted on rods. This technology
Introduction Cloud Computing is an up and coming strategy that could create millions of jobs while allowing companies to become more profitable. How does Cloud Computing work?

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Motivation The performance of the single core processor has hit the wall because of power requirements and heat dissipations. Then Hardware industry started creating multicore CPUs. Although, they can compute millions of instructions per second, there are some computational problems that are so complex that a powerful microprocessor needs years to solve them. To build more powerful microprocessors requires an expensive and intense production process. Some computations
The main aim of this paper is to study the concept of cloud computing through virtualization, how security is compromised in cloud computing and how we can secure the system from security breach in case of virtualization. Keywords: cloud computing, Hypervisor, Virtual machine, Virtualization Security. 1. INTRODUCTION Cloud computing is a model for enabling convenient, on demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications, and
information technology was used for the first time in 1958, in an article in Harvard Business Review and since that time this industry has seen only innovations throughout the history. Some problems that the industry is facing are the increase competition from the offshore and inshore players, the slow growth of the hardware sales, the decrease in the IT spending globally etc. But despite all the problems and challenges that the industry is facing, the opportunities are many. One of the most important
Cloud computing is a usage of very large scalable and virtualized resources in a dynamic way over the internet .In Cloud computing multiple cloud users can request number of cloud services simultaneously, so there must be a provision that all resources are made available to requesting user in efficient manner to satisfy their need without compromising on the performance of the resources. Clouds can make it possible to access applications and associated data from anywhere, anytime. One of the major
Introduction For this paper, the non-governmental organization I chose to represent was Partners in Health. Partners in Health was started in 1987 in Boston ("Our History | Partners In Health”). “Partners in Health’s mission is to provide healthcare options to people in need. Partners in Health is building long-term relationships with sister organizations, to achieve two goals: to bring the benefits of modern medical science to those most in need of them and to serve as an antidote to despair
Abstract— Trusted Computing Group (TCG) is providing a great effort to provide network security at every level, that’s why the technologies of trusted computing group are spreading very rapidly and will become the most leading technologies in next few years. Always there are Threats to networks, which create need for some features to secure the network at end point admission. The flow of information must be confident and data integrity measures should also be followed. The models provided by trusted
important components of software engineering is the platforms. There are many various types of computing platforms. A few of these include AmigaOS, Linux, Windows, Solaris. These examples are just a few of many different computing platforms. The types of computing platforms can be differentiated into three different categories, which include operating-system examples, software frame work examples, and also hardware examples. Each of the different platforms has slightly different requirements and means of
