COMPUTATION AND STORAGE IN THE CLOUD – UNDERSTANDING THE TRADE-OFFS

Prof. Yun Yang (1)

(1) Swinburne University

 

In this talk, I shall start with a brief summary of my research centre and related projects. The focus of this talk is on how to find out the minimum possible cost as benchmark for storing big data generated in (scientific/Web) applications and how to reduce the cost of data storage with innovative strategies in the cloud. This talk will be delivered in an unconventional manner with my personal involvement and experience in conducting PhD supervision.
