The level of difficulty that can be envisioned in a cloud data center will not grow with convention. As a result, all hosts should have a standard and pervasive collection of memory and communication characteristics in order to lower ownership costs and operate virtual machine instances. This solution includes fundamental foundations and integrated component basics that will allow an IT or federal agency to embrace cloud computing domestically via private virtual cloud data centers. These private cloud data centers would later be developed to purchase and develop IT services on the outside. They are well aware of the obstacles to cloud computing’s acceptance, including concerns about credibility, privacy, interoperability, and marketplaces. In addition, this procedure describes critical standards and collaborations to address these issues. Ultimately, it offers a coherent response to deploying safe data centers using cloud computing services from both a technological and an IT strategic standpoint. To foster creativity, invention, learning, and enterprise, a private data center and cloud computing must be established to combine the activities of different research teams. In the framework of energy-efficient distribution of resources in private cloud data center architecture, we focus on system structure investigations. On the other hand, we want to equip private cloud providers with the current design and performance analysis for energy-efficient resource allocation. The methodology should be adaptable enough to support a wide range of computing systems, as well as on-demand and extensive resource providing approaches, cloud environment scheduling, and bridging the gap between private cloud users and a complete image of offers.

Cloud computing has increased its service area and user experience above traditional platforms through virtualization and resource integration, resulting in substantial economic and societal advantages. Cloud computing is experiencing a significant security and trust dilemma, requiring a trust-enabled transaction environment. The typical cloud trust model is centralized, resulting in high maintenance costs, network congestion, and even single-point failure. Also, due to a lack of openness and traceability, trust rating findings are not universally acknowledged. “Blockchain is a novel, decentralised computing system. Its unique operational principles and record traceability assure the transaction data’s integrity, undeniability, and security. So, blockchain is ideal for building a distributed and decentralised trust infrastructure. This study addresses the difficulty of transferring data and related permission policies from the cloud to the distributed file systems (DFS). Our aims include moving the data files from the cloud to the distributed file system and developing a cloud policy. This study addresses the difficulty of transferring data and related permission policies from the cloud to the DFS. In DFS, no node is given the privilege, and storage of all the data is dependent on content-addressing. The data files are moved from Amazon S3 buckets to the interplanetary file system (IPFS). In DFS, no node is given the privilege, and storage of all the data is dependent on content-addressing.

Nowadays, COVID-19 is spreading at a rapid rate in almost all the continents of the world. It has already affected many people who are further spreading it day by day. Hence, it is the most essential to alert nearby people to be aware of it due to its communicable behavior. Till May 2020, no vaccine is available for the treatment of this COVID-19, but the existing technologies can be used to minimize its effect. Cloud/fog computing could be used to monitor and control this rapidly spreading infection in a cost-effective and time-saving manner. To strengthen COVID-19 patient prediction, Artificial Intelligence(AI) can be integrated with cloud/fog computing for practical solutions. In this paper, fog assisted the internet of things based quality of service framework is presented to prevent and protect from COVID-19. It provides real-time processing of users’ health data to predict the COVID-19 infection by observing their symptoms and immediately generates an emergency alert, medical reports, and significant precautions to the user, their guardian as well as doctors/experts. It collects sensitive information from the hospitals/quarantine shelters through the patient IoT devices for taking necessary actions/decisions. Further, it generates an alert message to the government health agencies for controlling the outbreak of chronic illness and for tanking quick and timely actions.

The Internet of Things has recently been a popular topic of study for developing smart homes and smart cities. Most IoT applications are very sensitive to delays, and IoT sensors provide a constant stream of data. The cloud-based IoT services that were first employed suffer from increased latency and inefficient resource use. Fog computing is used to address these issues by moving cloud services closer to the edge in a small-scale, dispersed fashion. Fog computing is quickly gaining popularity as an effective paradigm for providing customers with real-time processing, platforms, and software services. Real-time applications may be supported at a reduced operating cost using an integrated fog-cloud environment that minimizes resources and reduces delays. Load balancing is a critical problem in fog computing because it ensures that the dynamic load is distributed evenly across all fog nodes, avoiding the situation where some nodes are overloaded while others are underloaded. Numerous algorithms have been proposed to accomplish this goal. In this paper, a framework was proposed that contains three subsystems named user subsystem, cloud subsystem, and fog subsystem. The goal of the proposed framework is to decrease bandwidth costs while providing load balancing at the same time. To optimize the use of all the resources in the fog sub-system, a Fog-Cluster-Based Load-Balancing approach along with a refresh period was proposed. The simulation results show that “Fog-Cluster-Based Load Balancing” decreases energy consumption, the number of Virtual Machines (VMs) migrations, and the number of shutdown hosts compared with existing algorithms for the proposed framework.

Uncontrolled cell growth in the two spongy lung organs in the chest is the most prevalent kind of cancer. When cells from the lungs spread to other tissues and organs, this is referred to as metastasis. This work uses image processing, deep learning, and metaheuristics to identify cancer in its early stages. At this point, a new convolutional neural network is constructed. The predator technique has the potential to increase network architecture and accuracy. Deep learning identified lung cancer spinal metastases in as energy consumption increased CT readings for lung cancer bone metastases decreased. Qualified physicians, on the other hand, discovered 71.14 and 74.60 percent of targets with energies of 140 and 60 keV, respectively, whereas the proposed model gives 76.51 and 81.58 percent, respectively. Expert physicians’ detection rate was 74.60 percent lower than deep learning’s detection rate of 81.58 percent. The proposed method has the highest accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity (93.4, 98.4, and 97.1 percent, respectively), as well as the lowest error rate (1.6 percent). Finally, in lung segmentation, the proposed model outperforms the CNN model. High‐intensity energy‐spectral CT images are more difficult to segment than low‐intensity energy‐spectral CT images.

The rise of digital technology has essentially enhanced the overall communication and data management system, facilitating essential medical care services. Considering this aspect, the healthcare system successfully managed patient requirements through online services and facilitated patient experience. However, the lack of adequate data security and increased digital activities during Covid-19 made the healthcare system a soft target for hackers to gain unauthorized access and steal crucial and sensitive information. Countries such as the UK and the US recently received such challenges, highlighting the need for effective data maintenance. IoT emerged as one of the critical solutions for data management systems in terms of addressing data security which certainly can enhance overall data collection, storage, maintenance, prediction of potential data security breaches and taking appropriate measurements. The concerned research considers a secondary data collection process where necessary data is collected from original scholarly articles, books and journals. Apart from that, a positivism research philosophy, a deductive research approach and a descriptive research design have been considered for this study. Qualitative data analysis techniques have also been incorporated into this research. Upon viewing the pros and cons of IoT algorithms, DES, AES, triple data encryption standards, and RSA encryption can be used in the healthcare system to facilitate data protection.
