Title |
EVALUATION OF ARCHITECTURE STYLES
FOR CLOUD COMPUTING APPLICATIONS |
|
Authors |

Abstract |
Cloud computing is getting popular
and IT giants have started evolving toward networks and different cloud
services that serve different organizations. Software as a service (SaaS)
is the most mature category of cloud service [11], since it evolved from
the application-service-provider model of software hosting. As our use
of SaaS increases future solutions will likely require more frequent
data exchange with lower tolerance for failure. We also look to improve
scalability and modifiability, which currently require a great deal of
work. These requirements led us to develop a SaaS architecture that will
help us shift to a more strategic view of SaaS and enable faster, more
standardized implementations. Using the SaaS architecture, we can build
the cloud application independent of any platform. The architecture must
be both prescriptive and descriptive. In this paper we present a simple
architecture style for cloud computing applications that enhance certain
quality attributes. The style combines both the Layered architecture and
the Service Oriented architecture styles. This style will help
developers in creating future multitenant, on demand, scalable services
that are suitable in cloud computing. We illustrate this style on the
design of a document management system (DMS) application. We evaluate
the scalability, maintainability, and reliability of the resulting
application architecture and propose techniques to enhance the quality
attributes of the resulting architecture. |

PHILIPPINE SCIENCE HIGH SCHOOL –
ILOCOS REGION CAMPUS WEB PORTAL |
|
Authors |
PABLO M. VILORIA, JR. |
|
Abstract |
This study developed a web portal
for the Philippine Science High School – Ilocos Region Campus (PSHS-IRC).
It also determined the profile of the PSHS-IRC; level of awareness and
need for inclusion in the development; level of accessibility and
adequacy of facilities and sources for Internet access ;) development of
the school web portal prototype, its degree of usability; and the
development of web portal for PSHS-IRC. This study is a
descriptive-developmental research which made use of questionnaire and
face to face interview in gathering data in Phase I (Descriptive).
Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) was used to tackle Phase 2 of the
study (Development of the Web Portal). It was concluded that the school,
users, stakeholders’ background, and technical requirements are
essential data to be considered to address constraints and weaknesses in
the development. Awareness and need for school information of the target
user plays an important aspect in the development and inclusion of web
portal content. Accessibility and adequacy on internet sources and
facilities contributes to the portal access. Identifying requirements
guide the developer designed a prototype web portal that is suitable to
users and stakeholders. PSHS-IRC Web Portal is ready for use with the
URL www.irc.pshs.edu.ph . |

Title |
THE IMPORTANCE OF RESTRUCTURING
SOFTWARE ENGINEERING EDUCATION STRATEGIES IN ORDER TO MINIMIZE THE GAP
BETWEEN ACADEMIC SUPPLY AND INDUSTRY DEMAND IN SOFTWARE ENGINEERING
FIELD |
|
Authors |
MOHAMMAD SHKOUKANI, RAWAN ABU LAIL |
|
Abstract |
The field of software engineering
is changing rapidly, this paper aims to present the history of software
engineering education over the years and the changing happened to
software engineering field. It focuses on the new methodologies used to
develop the modern system that need special requirements and skills
mainly in Agent-oriented software engineering and Component based
software engineering. The paper highlights the importance of multi agent
systems in building modern application, and it presents the gap between
academic supply and industry demand in Agent-oriented software
engineering. Finally it recommends strategies to restructure software
engineering education to minimize that gap. |

Title |
QOS ARCHITECTURES: A DETAILED
REVIEW |
|
Authors |
USMAN AHMAD |
|
Abstract |
The ever increasing demand of
internet usage has given rise to many issues like internet application
management, bandwidth utilization, protocols mechanism management and,
etc. But the Quality of Service (QoS) has become the hottest issue among
these issues. Over the past several years, a considerable amount of
research work has been done in the field of QoS support for distributed
multimedia applications. Most of the work related to QoS support is done
at the level of individual architectural layers and a less progress has
been made to address the overall end-to-end support for multimedia
traffic. A number of research groups proposed the development of QoS
architectures across all layers. This paper presents a state of the art
survey of QoS architectures. The approach followed is to present the QoS
terminology and understanding the QoS regarding distributed multimedia
systems. A number of QoS architectures that have been appeared in
literature after 1990 from the computer communications and
telecommunications are fully evaluated. A qualitative comparison of
several QoS architectures is made in the end. |

OPEN SOURCE WEB CONTENT MANAGEMENT
SYSTEMS TO BUILD SOCIAL NETWORK WEBSITES |
|
Authors |
OMAR AL-HAMDI, AKRAM SALAH |
|
Abstract |
The Web became more social. A lot
of websites add some social features and new social network services
emerged. In this paper, we defined the primary and secondary social
features and conduct an extensive evaluation for open source Web Content
Management Systems (WCMSs) in order to infer the suitable systems to
build Social Network Websites (SNWs). Our evaluation is based on social
features that extracted from 8 popular SNWs and depends on user
preferences that concluded from the questionnaire results. The main
results for our work is to rank open source WCMSs based on social
features, The lateral result is to understand which social features that
users prefer and which features are unwanted. |
