Containerized web-applications have gained popularity recently
due to the advantages provided by the containers including light-
weight, packaged, fast start up and shut down and easy scalability.
As there are more than 267 cloud providers, finding a …
Modern big data process systems are becoming very
complex in terms of large-scale, high-concurrency and Multiple-
talents. Thus, many failures and performance reductions only
happen at run-time and are very difficult to capture. Moreover,
some issues …
SDN has provided significant convenience for net-
work providers and operators in cloud computing. Such great
advantage is extending to the IoT network. However, it also
increases the risk if the security of a SDN network is com-
