Cloud Computing: Security, Applications, and Infrastructure
Challenges in Cloud Computing
1. Security and Privacy: The security and privacy of information are the biggest challenges to cloud computing. These issues can be overcome by employing encryption, security hardware, and security applications.
2. Portability: Applications should be easily migrated from one cloud provider to another.
3. Interoperability: An application on one platform should be able to incorporate services from other platforms.
4. Computing Performance: Data-intensive applications on the

Introduction to USB Technology
USB (Universal Serial Bus) interface is a method of data transmission and power distribution that was introduced to the market for PCs and peripherals to enhance the old and tedious serial interfaces (RS-232) and parallel interfaces. The interface consists of four wires, offers various speeds, and is “plug and play,” requiring no external power in most cases.
The Universal Serial Bus allows the connection of up to 127 peripherals to a single port of a PC, with automatic

The draft regulation defines urbanization as a work project aimed at carrying out the practice, where the determinations of municipal plans. In urbanizable soil is the material realization of the partial plans. It has to be solved all the planning figures and all the steps prior to the actual implementation of how it will perform the construction (sanitation, rush, light). The development plans will contain the documents relating to any proposed construction work in for the project implementation.

Week 1: Cloud Computing Models
Cloud computing is a model for enabling ubiquitous, convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources.
Software as a Service (SaaS)
- The consumer uses an application but does not control the operating system, hardware, or network infrastructure on which it’s running.
- Applications are restricted to business applications or applications that may normally be installed in a business network or personal computer.
- Examples:
- Business applications:
