Abstract/Summary:
Cloud computing is the future of web technologies and the goal for all web companies as well. It reinforces some old concepts of building highly scalable Internet architectures and introduces some new concepts that entirely change the way applications are built and deployed. In the recent years, some technology companies adopted the cloud computing strategy. This adoption took place when these companies have predicted that cloud computing will be the solutions of Web problems such as availability. However, organizations find it almost impossible to launch the cloud idea without adopting previous approaches like that of Service-Oriented approach. As a result of this dependency, web service problems are transferred into the cloud. Indeed, the current cloud's availability is too expensive due to service replication, some cloud services face performance problem, a majority of these services is weak regarding security, and cloud services are randomly discovered while it is difficult to precisely select the best ones in addition to being spontaneously fabricated in an ocean of services. Moreover, it is impossible to validate cloud services especially before runtime. Finally, according to the W3C standards, cloud services are not yet internationalized. Indeed, the predicted web is a smart service model while it lacks intelligence and autonomy. This is why the adoption of service-oriented model was not an ideal decision. In order to minimize the consequences of cloud problems and achieve more benefits, each cloud company builds its own cloud platform. Currently, cloud vendors are facing a big problem that can be summarized by the "Cloud Platform Battle". The budget of this battle will cost about billions of dollars due to the absence of an agreement to reach a standard cloud platform. Why intelligent collaboration is not applied between distributed clouds to achieve better Cloud Computing results? The appropriate approach is to restructure the cloud model basis to recover its issues. Multiple intelligent techniques may be used to develop advanced intelligent Cloud systems. Classical examples of distributed intelligent systems include: human body, social insect colonies, flocks of vertebrates, multi-agent systems, transportation systems, multi-robot systems, and wireless sensor networks. However, the intelligent system that could be imitated is the human body system, in which billions of body cells work together to achieve accurate results. Inspired by Bio-Informatics strategy that benefits from technologies to solve biological facts (like our genes), this thesis research proposes a novel Bio-Cloud strategy which imitates biological facts (like brain and genes) in solving the Cloud Computing issues. Based on Bio-Cloud strategy, I have developed through this thesis project the "SmartCells" framework as a smart solution for Cloud problems. SmartCells framework covers: 1) Cloud problems which are inherited from the service paradigm (like issues of service reusability, security, etc.); 2) The intelligence insufficiency problem in Cloud Computing systems. SmartCells depends on collaborations between smart components (Cells) that take advantage of the variety of already built web service components to produce an intelligent Cloud system.
