1. Community Cloud: Collabora ve Mul -Cloud Ecosystems in Community Networks Progress Update for Doctorate in Distributed Compu ng Amin Khan amin.khan@ieee.org Advsior: Felix Freitag Co-Advisor: Luís Rodrigues Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya Ins tuto Superior Técnico. INESC-ID Barcelona, Spain Lisbon, Portugal Monday nd June, EMJD-DC Spring Event, Stockholm, Sweden
2. Community Networks social collec ve for building ICT infrastructure in bo om-up fashion based on reciprocal sharing
3. Community Clouds collabora ve mul -cloud services extending voluntary and p p compu ng models co-op of many clouds of small things
4. Problem how, why and where can community clouds be useful?
5. Progress compare cloud models using CloudSim simulator decentralized architecture tailored to socio-economic context state-of-the-art study of collabora ve and social clouds
6. Challenges same simula on tools not suitable for both data centres and community clouds modelling network cri cal for community clouds straight comparison of common cloud apps not quite meaningful
7. Result (Distributed Architecture)
8. Problem how to speed-up uptake and ensure sustainability of community clouds?
9. Progress incen ves based resource regula on designing socio-economic policies for community clouds
10. Challenges ease of use and enhanced u lity (killer app) func onality to match or out-perform apps on Internet, or else find a niche
11. Result economic incen ves not sufficient to overcome dilemmas social context useful in enforcing mechanisms factor in social distance and social exclusion
12. ¿ What Next ?
13. Problem can we devise socio-economic mechanisms to sustain collabora on in community clouds?
14. Approach discrete event simula ons using SimPy modelling economic mechanisms & social distance between agents in dynamic network within evolu onary game theory framework
15. Expected Result theore cal understanding from simula on experiments support services within a prototype community cloud implementa on
