In public sectors, the trend of using electronic information sharing has transformed the traditional ways of information sharing either vertically or horizontally. The horizontal functioning of information sharing means sharing information within same level of organization such as sharing information between local governments. The vertical functioning of information sharing means sharing information...
Cloud Computing was growing so fast today. The services are Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Software as a Service (SaaS), and Platform as a Service (PaaS). This development of cloud computing align with the development of computer in this new age which turn people to work mobile and faster. Cloud computing could be one of the new tools in supporting learning process for students in Higher Education...
Cloud computing has been evolved from server based context to service-oriented context. This transformation poses lots of challenges to a cloud environment in terms of cloud service reliability and information security. In most of the aspects of current cloud service environment, lot of information exchange taking place without much security. In this context cloud computing, with reliability and security...
Cloud Computing is a Service Delivery Mechanism. Computing resources are delivered as a service over the network. These services are Scalable, Autonomous, and Cost effective in nature. Cloud Computing is responsible for the exponential growth of IT Industry. In spite of having so many advantages it has various security challenges that cannot be ignored. In order to make the Cloud Computing all the...
Cloud computing brings convenience for people to use IT resources, but also brings great challenges to the maintenance service of cloud computing environement. How to ensure the quality of maintenance service for cloud computing has become a problem. This paper proposes two models for quality management. One is the service quality management model for maintenance service. The other is the service...
Cloud computing is an emerging technology that over the internet provides services such as computing infrastructure, network services, applications, business processes, etc. The biggest concern is the security in the cloud computing. Since many solutions provided to secure cloud but since have identified cloud security requirements sporadically and confine could not improve cloud security problems...
Cloud computing is one of the most prominent technological trends as it allows modernization of healthcare organization. The purpose of this study is to explore the factors that affect adoption of integrated cloud-based e-health record EHR system in healthcare organizations in Jordan based on TOE framework. The study is done by conducting interviews with IT experts in healthcare organization in Jordan...
In Cloud Computing Resources are allocated to customers based on their requests and prioritization, but sometimes a non-cloud provider organization wants to share their spare resources to same customers through Cloud Brokers so in this type of system a heterogeneous environment is created between regular cloud providers, Non- cloud provider organization, cloud broker and customers. In this paper we...
Integration of hospital information systems (HIS) is an important area and one the basic requirements of hospitals since it increases quality of care and at the same time reduces costs of creating, upgrading, updating and keeping up with technology and healthcare industry standards and information technology. Cloud computing with features like multitenancy, massive scalability, elasticity, pay as...
For some years now, the concept of Cloud Computing (CC) is presented as the new revolution of information technology. It presents not only a technical innovation for better IT system flexibility, improvement of working methods and cost control, but also a new economic model, built around the concept of IT Services that are identifiable, classifiable and countable for end users, who can benefit by...
Increasingly, public organizations require higher levels of reliability and flexibility from information systems (IS) while trying to reduce costs at the same time. Cloud computing is a promising technology to fulfill these requirements. In particular, Desktop as a Service (DaaS), as one facet thereof, offers reliability and flexibility by means of consistent anytime anywhere access to applications...
This paper presents a method of developing an instrument for Cloud Computing (CC) adoption by Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs). To achieve this outcome, this paper firstly evaluates the suitability of Technology-Organization-Environment Framework and Actor Network Theory for CC adoption by SMEs. It then explains how to discover the constructs and their relationships, and subsequently, how...
This study aims to theoretically construct a research model based on literature review in order to investigate the trust factors that affect the adoption of cloud-based supply chain management (SCM) systems. A new research model is comprised of six antecedent trust factors (communication, learning capacity, participation, usability, security, and reliability) that should influence the supply chain...
Adoption of cloud computing has reached an important inflection point that is impacting IT and business strategies and models throughout the industry. There is lack of empirical evidence how cloud adoption and certain capabilities of cloud in particular, impact individual aspects of IT effectiveness like IT quality of service, user satisfaction, and IT helpfulness to users. The intent of this research...
Due to the rapid emergence of Information Technology, cloud computing provides assorted advantages to service providers, developers, organizations, and customers with respect to scalability, flexibility, cost-effectiveness, and availability. However, it also introduces new challenges and concerns, especially in terms of security and privacy. One of the major security obstacles to widespread adoption...
Though a variety of cloud storage services have been offered recently, they have not yet provided users with transparent and cost-effective personal data storage. Services like Google Docs offer easy file access and sharing, but tie storage with internal data formats and specific applications. Meanwhile, services like Drop box offer general-purpose storage. Yet they have not been widely utilized,...
