Collaboration in Multicolor Computing Environments-Framework and Security Issues

Abstract

A proposed proxy-based multi-cloud computing framework allows dynamic, on the fly collaborations and resource sharing among cloud-based services, addressing trust, policy, and privacy issues without pre-established collaboration agreements or standardized interfaces. The recent surge in cloud computing arises from its ability to provide software, infrastructure, and platform services without requiring large investments or expenses to manage and operate them. Clouds typically involve service providers, infrastructure/resource providers, and service users (or clients). They include applications delivered as services, as well as the hardware and software systems providing these services.
