In a recent keynote at the 3rd EU-Japan Symposium on Future Internet and New Generation Networks we presented our view about key research challenges in cloud computing. We briefly covered the state of the art and the open challenges in the main cloud layers that provide the tools and the infrastructure to develop and to run the applications in the Future Internet of Services. In this post we try to summarize the main points of the presentation.
Cloud Computing as an Enabler for the Internet of Services
The Internet of Services is a vision of the Internet of the Future where not only the software applications are available as a service on the Internet, such as the software itself, but also the tools to develop the software and the platform (servers, storage and communication) to run the software. In this scenario, SaaS cloud computing would represent the software applications that are available as a service in the Internet, while PaaS and IaaS would represent the enablers for the Internet of Services providing the tool services to develop applications and the infrastructure services to run the applications.
Research Challenges
Cloud Computing research addresses the challenges of meeting the requirements of next generation private, public and hybrid cloud computing architectures; and the challenges of allowing applications and development platforms to take advantage of the benefits of cloud computing. We are at the beginning of the road, there are still many technology challenges to be researched and adoption barriers to be overcome. Fortunately because cloud solution architectures include technology components from different fields, many research challenges in Cloud Computing have been already addressed to a certain degree by different research communities, mostly virtualization, Grid and autonomic computing.
Here I do not try to give an exhaustive list of challenges but to briefly describe those challenges that I think should be firstly addressed to unleash the full potential of cloud computing. I organized the challenges in the following six different categories.
Platform Management. Challenges in delivering middleware capabilities for building, deploying, integrating and managing applications in a multi-tenant, elastic and scalable environments.
- Scalability and multi-tenancy of application containers
- Placement optimization algorithms of containers in resources
Cloud-enabled Applications. Challenges in building cloud-enabled applications and platforms to take advantage of the scalability, agility and reliability of the cloud.
- Elastic and scalable applications and frameworks on very large-scale environments
- Self-scaling, self-awareness, self-knowledge, and self-management capabilities of services
- Novel applications of cloud computing
- Power-efficient applications and platforms
- Research challenges in the aggregation of resources from diverse cloud providers adding additional layers of service management
Cloud Aggregation. Research challenges in the aggregation of resources from diverse cloud providers adding additional layers of service management.
- Novel architectural models for aggregation of cloud providers
- Brokering algorithms for high availability, performance, proximity, legal domains, price, or energy efficiency
- Sharing of resources between cloud providers
- Networking in the deployment of services across multiple cloud providers
- SLA negotiation and management between cloud providers
- Additional privacy, security and trust management layers atop providers
- Support of context-aware applications
- Automatic management of service elasticity
Cloud Management. Research challenges in delivering infrastructure resources on-demand in a multi-tenant, secure, elastic and scalable environment.
- Scalable management of network, computing and storage capacity
- Scalable orchestration of virtualized resources and data
- Placement optimization algorithms for energy efficiency, load balancing, high availability and QoS
- Accounting, billing, monitoring and pricing models
- Security, privacy and trust issues in the cloud
- Energy efficiency models, metrics and tools at system and datacenter levels
Cloud Enablement. Research challenges in enhancing platform infrastructure to support cloud management requirements.
- Technologies for virtualization of infrastructure resources
- Virtualization of high performance infrastructure components
- Autonomic and intelligent management of resources
- Implications of Cloud paradigm on networking and storage systems
- Support for vertical elasticity
- Provision of service related metrics
Cloud Interoperability. Challenges to ensure that the available cloud services can work together and interoperate successfully.
- Common and standard interfaces for cloud computing
- Portability of virtual appliances across diverse clouds providers
Building an Open Cloud Ecosystem
There are several large projects funded by the European Commission that are already addressing these challenges or are building testbeds to bridge the usability and cultural gaps of cloud computing. Most of these projects are re-using existing open-source components, so actively contributing to build an open cloud ecosystem. A very good example is the high number of innovative projects using and contributing to the OpenNebula open-source community.

There is no doubt that Big Data is here and getting bigger every day. Building a Big Data infrastructure today is no easy task. There are an enormous number of choices for database engines and technologies. To make things even more challenging, requirements are getting more sophisticated, and the standard paradigm of supporting historical analytics queries is often just one facet of what is needed. As Big Data growth continues, organizations are demanding real-time access to data, allowing immediate and actionable interpretation of events as they happen.

By Liz McMillan Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys. Feb. 1, 2015 02:00 AM EST Reads: 5,145 |

Chinese Beverage Maker Turns Legal Setback Into Viral Ad Campaign
Chinese Beverage Maker Turns Legal Setback Into Viral Ad Campaign
- 02.07.13
This is no tempest in an herbal tea pot. The JDB Group, maker of China's most popular herbal tea—one that raked in approximately 20 billion RMB (USD $3.2 billion) in revenues in 2012—lost another legal battle in its epic trademark war with the state-owned Guangzhou Pharmaceutical Group in late January.
A long story made short: JDB licensed an obscure trademark called "Wong Lo Kat" from Guangzhou Pharmaceutical in 1997 and developed it into a drink so popular it could fairly be called China's Coca-Cola. In 2010, Guangzhou Pharmaceutical claimed that an agreement extending the license to 2020 was invalid because JDB had bribed the key negotiator. Guangzhou Pharmaceutical said it wanted to take back the trademark, the brand value of which could be appraised at more than 100 billion RMB (about USD $16 billion).
Local courts and arbitration panels in China sided with Guangzhou Pharmaceutical time after time, and in late January a court issued an injunction that threatened JDB's multi-million dollar advertising blitz to re-brand its product. JDB believes that its opponent has been given an unfair advantage in the proceedings because it is a state-owned enterprise.
JDB decided to take the war to social media. On February 4, JDB's official account (@加多宝凉茶) on Weibo, China's Twitter, posted a series of four photos with tearful children. One has the caption, "Sorry! We are so useless. We are good at selling herbal tea, but not at lawsuits." Another has the caption, "Sorry! We are too dumb. It took us 17 years to develop China's herbal tea into a brand that rivals Coca-Cola."
The campaign was an immediate Weibo sensation, with one of the photos being retweeted almost 30,000 times. Most commentators seem to sympathize with JDB, calling it an adoptive mother who had to give back a child that it nurtured for years.
Other corporations soon posted their imitation of the campaign. The carmaker MINI posted photos of the Fab Four with the caption, "Sorry! We keep calling The Beatles the Beetle Band in Chinese" and a collage of each Beatle in a Mini Cooper with the caption, "That's OK! Because they all drive a classic Mini."
This story by Rachel Lu was originally published by Tea Leaf Nation.

Cooper Tank Recycling hit with eight health and safety violations.
The U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration has cited Cooper Tank & Welding Corp., dba Cooper Tank Recycling, for eight serious health and safety violations following the heat-related death of an employee at its Brooklyn, N.Y., recycling facility. Kay Gee, OSHA's area director for Brooklyn, Manhattan and Queens, N.Y., says, "This was a needless and preventable loss of life. This employer failed to train workers and implement safeguards that could have protected them from excessive heat conditions. Workers were also exposed to potentially fatal injuries from falls, electrocution and unguarded operating machine parts." On July 19, 2013, the worker, who later suffered from heat illness and died, had been working for several hours on a conveyor line, sorting and recycling construction and demolition debris. Workers were exposed to excessive ambient heat stemming from environmental sources and the heat generated by recycling machinery, according to OSHA. The agency's investigation found that the company failed to inform and train workers on the recognition, prevention and treatment of heat-related illnesses and did not provide temperature controls in the work area or implement a work/rest regimen. OSHA found workers exposed to falls of 20 to 40 feet due to unguarded wall openings, missing guardrails and lack of fall protection equipment; electrocution hazards from an ungrounded electrical outlet and power cord; and lacerations and amputations from unguarded grinders. As a result, eight serious citations were issued. The citations can be viewed at www.osha.gov/ooc/citations/CooperTankHealth.pdf and www.osha.gov/ooc/citations/CooperTankSafety.pdf. The company, which faces $40,500 in fines, has 15 business days from receipt of the citations and penalties to comply, request an informal conference with OSHA's area director, or contest the findings before the independent Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission.

Man sent to hospital after being found walking on highway in bitter cold
A tow-truck driver found the man walking on Highway 401 Friday morning when wind chill values were as low as nearly -30C
A man was taken to hospital after a tow-truck driver found him walking down Hwy. 401 on a bitterly cold Friday morning.
Ontario Provincial Police Sgt. Dave Woodford said the driver picked up the man near Westney Rd. at about 6:30 a.m.
He took the man to a nearby location near Westney Rd. S. and Ritchie Ave. in Ajax where Emergency Medical Services arrived to assess him.
The tow-truck driver told EMS he thought the man had been out in the cold for several hours, an EMS spokesman said. He was taken to hospital on an emergency basis.
Woodford said police often get calls about pedestrians walking on the highway but, in this case, EMS took the man to hospital because of the frigid temperature.
Wind chill values were as low as nearly -30C in the area this morning with a high of -12C expected throughout the day.

U.S. Severe Weather Forecast (Convective Outlook)
000 acus01 kwns 011256 swody1 Storm Prediction Center ac 011254 Day 1 convective outlook National Weather Service Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0654 am CST sun Feb 01 2015 Valid 011300z - 021200z ..there is a marginal risk of severe thunderstorms from parts of southeastern Texas eastward to parts of western Alabama... ... A few marginally severe thunderstorms may occur this afternoon and early evening from portions of southeast Texas to the lower Mississippi Valley region. ... Morning water vapor imagery indicates a midlevel shortwave trough amplifying over the Central Plains. Associated surface low pressure...analyzed along the Kansas/MO border...will develop eastward toward the Ohio Valley and central Appalachians in tandem with the progression of the shortwave trough. In the wake of a cold front trailing SW of the deepening surface cyclone...sprawling surface high pressure will reinforce Continental polar air over the Great Plains. Meanwhile...ahead of the cold front...poleward mass fluxes will encourage the inland advance of partially modified Gulf moisture. By early Monday...the cold front is forecast to extend from portions of the central Appalachians to the eastern Gulf Coast. ..portions of southeast Texas to the lower MS valley region... Surface observations indicate dewpoints from the upper 50s to around 60f extending inland from the Texas coast to the dfw metroplex...in advance of the cold front. This front is analyzed from the Kansas/MO-area low pressure southwestward to the Texas S plains. As mass fields respond to surface cyclogenesis occurring well north of the region...similar dewpoints will overspread areas farther east toward the lower MS valley ahead of the front...where 12z radiosonde observations indicate a dry/cool boundary layer presently in place. A steady supply of moisture east of a northwestern-Mexico midlevel cyclone...coupled with modest isentropic ascent in the entrance region of a surface-cyclone-preceding low level jet...will maintain clouds and areas of precipitation across the warm/moist sector. This will stunt diurnal destabilization. However...as the strongest low-level mass fluxes become concentrated over the Ohio and Tennessee valleys...breaks in cloud coverage/decreasing cloud-opacity may promote marginal pre-frontal destabilization. A corridor of 200-500-j/kg MLCAPE will likely materialize ahead of the front by mid-afternoon...from southeastern Texas to central MS. This will be sufficient for the development of isolated to scattered thunderstorms in vicinity of the front during the afternoon...with this activity spreading eastward into the evening. Additional convection may mature within the pre-frontal/isentropic-ascent regime throughout the day from central la to central/S-cntrl/ern MS...with this activity similarly shifting eastward. The presence of 55-60-kt 500 mb wswlys will offer sufficient deep shear for organized convective structures. Small bowing segments may yield a few instances of marginally severe wind gusts. Low-level flow will be slightly backed relative to the flow aloft in proximity to a low-level confluence axis extending south-southwest of the cyclone to the central Gulf Coast this afternoon. Pre-frontal convection evolving in this regime may occasionally exhibit mixed convective modes...perhaps including semi-discrete supercells. This would particularly be the case across portions of central/srn/ern MS and adjacent sections of northestern la and western Alabama. Curved...elongated low-level hodographs supporting 100-250 m2/s2 of 0-1-km srh suggest that a brief/weak tornado cannot be ruled out in these areas. However...the dearth of buoyancy will be a mitigating factor for more robust severe-thunderstorm potential...especially given incomplete modification of the air mass overlying the Gulf of Mexico and the presence of only modest midlevel lapse rates. Furthermore...the spatial displacement between the stronger deep ascent/surface cyclogenesis and greater boundary-layer Theta-E will be a mitigating factor for a more substantial severe-thunderstorm potential. As such...only marginal-svr-tstm delineation is in effect. Any severe-thunderstorm risk will diminish as convection spreads east of western Alabama this evening...and nocturnal cooling breeds an increase in boundary-layer static stability. ..extreme eastern NC including the Outer Banks... Strengthening low-level slys ahead of the shortwave trough will Foster an influx of low-level moisture from the southwestern North Atlantic late tonight...along with some uptick in convection. Despite strong flow just above the surface...forecast soundings indicate a paucity of buoyancy owing to statically stable thermodynamic profiles in the low levels. The nocturnally enhanced stable layer will minimize the opportunity for downdrafts to manifest strong winds at the surface. Therefore...no severe probabilities have been included. .Cohen/carlaw/Mead.. 02/01/2015

Discussion...surface pressure falls of 2-3 mb per 2 hours are analyzed across the middle-MS valley to portions of northern IL/Indiana...reflecting the low-level warm air advection regime in place ahead of surface low pressure analyzed near Kansas City. Related isentropic ascent is supporting widespread precipitation in this regime...with moderate to occasionally heavy snow being reported across parts of northern Illinois. As the surface low develops eastward/east-northeastward while deepening and low-level frontogenesis correspondingly becomes enhanced...precipitation will further increase in coverage and intensity across the discussion area...where wet-bulb zero heights will remain sufficiently low/at the ground in support of snow per the 12z ilx radiosonde observation and rap forecast soundings. The stronger warm air advection and associated low level jet-enhanced ascent will shift eastward through the day. As such...snowfall rates to 1 inch per hour will gradually spread eastward as well -- reaching northwestern Ohio around/after 18z. Also of note...strengthening northeasterly winds to the northwest of the surface cyclone will combine with lingering light to moderate snow across northestern Illinois to encourage blowing/drifting of snow and very low visibilities by this afternoon. This includes the Chicago area and surrounding communities. .Cohen/carlaw.. 02/01/2015 ..please see www.Spc.NOAA.Gov for graphic product...

Disgraced Austrian politician Ernst Strasser goes on trial on Monday (local time) in a corruption case that has undermined trust in European and Austrian institutions.
The former Austrian interior minister and European lawmaker could face 10 years in jail if convicted, after being caught on camera offering to propose amendments to European laws in exchange for 100,000 euros (NZ$157,000).
Strasser, 56, was exposed last year by undercover journalists from Britain's Sunday Times posing as lobbyists. He resigned while denying wrongdoing, saying he wanted to protect his party, the Austrian conservative OVP.
"Of course I am a lobbyist," he told the journalists in a secretly filmed video. "This is a wonderful opportunity to learn all the people, to have my own network, and to use this network for my, for my companies. It's a very good combination."
Strasser, one of several once-mighty Austrian politicians brought down by recent corruption scandals, told the journalists he already had five such clients.
He later said in an interview he went along with the "lobbyists" because he believed they were secret service agents and he wanted to follow their trail.
The trial in Vienna comes as European politicians battle to keep faith with the post-war ideals of European integration and rejection of extreme nationalism that led to the founding of what would become the European Union more than 60 years ago.
As the 27 nation bloc struggles to contain a debt crisis, a gulf is widening between more affluent countries and poorer members like Greece, which faces expulsion from the euro zone if it does not maintain a course of harsh austerity measures.
Euroscepticism and nationalism are on the rise in many European countries. In Britain, which has always had a difficult relationship with its continental partners, talk that it could leave the EU has begun to shift from the fringes to the centre of political debate.
Less than half of the EU's half a billion citizens voted in the last European Parliament elections in 2009, and a poll last year found that 26 percent had a negative image of the parliament, up from 17 percent three years earlier.
"Most European parliamentarians are as lazy as I am," Strasser told the Sunday Times journalists.
Three other European lawmakers were caught by the Sunday Times sting operation: Romania's Adrian Severin, Slovenia's Zoran Thaler and Spain's Pablo Zalba Bidegain.
Thaler resigned after the scandal but the other two still sit in parliament.
Eight days have been allotted for Strasser's trial, which begins at 0700 GMT and has drawn wide international interest.

Ep #92 - The Rising Apple Report: 21 Days till Pitchers and Catchers
in Sports
Let the countdown begin!
Pitchers and catchers report to camp on February 19th, and the first full squad workout is scheduled for February 26th.
Until then, it's time to heave another log into the old Hot Stove.
Michael Lecolant will be hosting tonight's 92nd episode of the Rising Apple Report. Joining him from the RA staff will be the Converted Mets Fan, Sam Maxwell.
Their guests will include Stephen Keane from KranepoolSociety.com, and John Pielli, host of the Passed Ball Show at JohnPielli.com.
Sandy Alderson still has work to do. That will kick off the evening's discussion.
If his mind is truly focused on contending in 2015, he'd still be trying to resolve an unsatisfactory situation at shortstop, pursuing another established left-hander for the bullpen, and avoiding a logjam in the starting rotation.
They'll also discuss the appearance of six Mets on Keith Law's top 100 prospects list, and the interview that took place between Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports and Commissioner Robert Manfred regarding the Wilpons financial condition.
The show kicks off at 9:00pm (EST) sharp.
As always, your participation is most welcome. Please call the Rising Apple Report at 646-929-0337.
Epidode 91 - The Rising Apple Report: A Winter of Dissatisfaction?
in Sports
The Mets hot stove is failing to generate sufficient heat. That's the sentiment among a growing number of fans.
While the N.L. East has worked itself into a trading frenzy this winter, the Mets lone off-season acquisition remains outfielder Michael Cuddyer.
With a shortstop situation screaming for resolution, and a need for a lefty in the bullpen, Mets boosters are growing increasingly perturbed with the lack of front office activity.
Clearly then, ownership's financial straits continue to hamper team operations. Ticket prices are rumored to be going up this coming season, yet, there's been no uptick in payroll.
How is it possible then, Fred Wilpon was named to head Major League Baseball's finance committee?
Tonight, the 91st episode of the Rising Apple Report will try and make sense of it all. Rich Sparago will host what is sure to be a spirited roundtable discussion, and will be joined by fellow Rising Apple staff writers Michael Lecolant and Kevin Baez.
Joining the crew to share his insights will be special guest, John Coppinger, from MetstradamusBlog.com.
Tonight's opening pitch is at 9:00pm (EST) sharp.
Of course, we'd love to have you call in as well. Please do, at 646-929-0337.
The Friday Nightcap w/ Emiaj and Taylor

Ep. 90 The Rising Apple Report - More on the QBC, and ruthless baseball analysis
in Sports
Tonight will mark the 90th episode of the Rising Apple Report. Senior staff writer Michael Lecolant will hos this evening,
Joining the show for a first time will be a recent, and welcome addition to the Rising Apple staff, Justin Weiss.
Returning to share anecdotes from their recent QBC experience will be Mets fan extraordinaire/photographer Sharon Chapman, and "A Gal For All Seasons" Taryn "the Coop" Cooper.
This evening, the Rising Apple Report will also feature ruthless baseball analysis from the best writer you've never heard of, author Paul Lebowitz.
Together, they'll continue discussing the recent Queens Baseball Convention, how recent transactions have shaken up the N.L. East, share some retrospective thoughts on the 1990 season, and stray anywhere else the conversation may lead.
Of course, you're always welcome to join. Give the show a call tonight at 646-929-0337. Rising Apple would be happy to hear from you.
Tonight's podcast starts at 9:00pm EST.
Rising From The Ashes
in Christianity
When a blazing inferno or fire occurs it often leaves behind a great heap of ashes left for the clean-up crew. And so ashes seem useless and nothing good coming from it. Or take for example our own brokenness and sense of loss and despair, some think life is over, game over. Its in divorce, difficult relationships, or just hanging on to a particular sin and identifying with it instead of Christ. Perhaps your own sin has torn apart your relationships. And so all happens at once with no end in sight, goes down hill from there, loss of home, job, family and other possessions. What good can come from that? How does one become strong through a battle with cancer, or a family member who is very ill? A closer look and one could think God is picking on them. But what if God is already at work behind the scenes creating a masterpiece to be used for His purpose only? To turn your brokenness into wholeness, It seems that only through difficulty, trial and dark despair that God can use us the most, because in all that mess there is a sparkling "diamond in the rough" rising from the ashes.

The Grantham Taylor Hughes Show
in Legal
Every Sunday at 6:30 PM EST, Dr. Lord Grantham Taylor, Hughes J.d., L.c.m.D., Ph.D. (Grantham), explores the 1930 Geneva Convention International bankruptcy and its contemporary effects on our society. He also analyses the necessity of his four foundation bankruptcy platform planks of health, sovereignty, solvency, and afianchetto. These planks include talking about bankruptcy money issues, e.g., Federal Reserve exemption account accessable fees which help those in need along with detailed information regarding all currency.
Grantham, having been a contracts expert for many years is presently a retired trust lawyer with his family as the eminent Bauer-Rothschild clan that gleans his Lordship as one Baron von Bauer-Rothschild. That credibility and his Self-Realization experience in India many years ago displays his particular brand of intelligently illuminating yet glib presentation. Along with his journalist "side-kick" Gabriella Foster, they bring a fun atmosphere to seemingly lugubrious salient subjects effecting our world today. Come join this "dynamic duo" and learn about important information necessary in negotiating our way in a venue of confusion at times. Clear and cogent insightfulness genuinely will enable many to free themselves from the political ignorance around them. Much of this ignorance remains the problems of not knowing the Uniform Commercial code (UCc) and its lawful presence in the international courts. We know that the courts remain mostly in denial of the UCc. Grantham explains rightfully so as of the bankruptcy embarrassment and potential handgun revolution concern. He adds that provocative positions are unnecessary and working together gathering wisdom instead of adversarialism. Again, join this perfect recumbentibus team extrapolating a more powerfully pithy political posture found nowhere else.

I have always been encouraged by my belief that the Lord is tone-deaf; He truly only hears our hearts!!! May you also be encouraged by this truth in all aspects of your Christian walk! "Man looks at the outward appearance (or listens to the outward sounds?), but God looks at (and listens to) the heart."
Be blessed, and hope you can join me for this time of blessing the Lord. "Bless the Lord, oh my soul and forget not all His benefits. Bless the Lord, oh my soul; let all that is within me bless the Lord."

Drawing from the Addison Gallery's permanent collection, Natural Selections complements the exhibition, James Prosek: The Spaces in Between, in which Prosek, 2013 Edward E. Elson artist-in-residence at the Addison, raises questions about how we recognize and interpret the natural world. Whether a treasured masterpiece or a lesser-known work, each object in Natural Selections has been chosen to evidence the artist's relation to the natural environment.
Nature imposes itself in small and grand ways in the works assembled here--a fragment of sylvan landscape or seascape glimpsed through the window behind the sitter, a panoramic landscape of grand intention spread across the canvas, a meticulously detailed segment of woods or bountiful garden or animal specimen. While the scientist offers us a structured framework and systematic ordering of natural phenomena, it is through the lens of the imaginative artist we learn to see and appreciate our natural world--light, land, sky, water, flora, fauna, and the cosmos in which we live.
