Megha: Utility-Oriented Federation of Cloud Computing Environments for Scaling of Application Services

在接下来的20年里，面向服务的计算将在塑造行业、影响业务开展方式以及服务交付和管理方式方面发挥重要作用。这一范式将对服务业经济产生重大影响，服务业对澳大利亚GDP的贡献很大。随着向大量用户提供服务的需求增加，提供商正在寻找新的方式在云上低成本托管他们的应用服务，同时满足用户的服务质量期望。该项目为云联邦开发新的实用技术，以支持应用服务的扩展，从而改变澳大利亚的服务业和经济。

In the next 20 years, service-oriented computing will play an important role in shaping the industry, impacting the way business is conducted and how services are delivered and managed. This paradigm will have major impact on the services economy, which contributes significantly towards Australia's GDP. With the increased demand for delivering services to a large number of users, providers are looking for novel ways of hosting their application services on Clouds at low cost while meeting users' quality of service expectations. This project develops novel utility-oriented technologies for federation of Clouds to support scaling of application services and thereby, transform the Australian service industry and economy.
