Dear Friends and Researchers,
Kindly Suggest Some Cloud Based Research Tools and/or Subjects that can be taught to undergraduate students to provide them a research pathway in the field of cloud Computing.
I will be thankful for your suggestions ...
Hello! I have categorically mentioned a few research topics that might be intriguing to undergraduate as well as graduate students:
1. Cloud Forensics & Intrusion Detection Systems
I would recommend to use DFire (http://digitalfire.ucd.ie/?p=903) to setup a virtual cloud provider and then perform a bunch of penetration tests. Additionally, I would urge students to investigate reactive mechanisms to prevent and analyze critical events in cloud environments. This will enable them to practice experimental methodologies and enhance their troubleshooting skills.
Some specific targets are- Log Analysis, Swap Memory Analysis, Threat Analysis.
2. Resource provisioning in cloud systems
For this track of research, I would recommend to use OMnet++ or GNS3. As an academic project, I would suggest students to read Graph Theory and scheduling algorithms in Operating systems; and implement such algorithms in a virtually simulated setup.
A few specific projects are- Deadlock avoidance, concurrency in cloud, Gelly-Scheduling.

Thanks for your valuable suggestion. I will definitely go through it.
Following topics might be useful:
1. Cloud resource allocation and provision
2. Cloud resource discovery
3. Cloud security services
4. Blockchain for cloud data security
5. Cloud data integration
6. Meta-heuristic optimization algorithms in cloud computing
7. Cloud database management system and Hadoop
Some of popular tools related to cloud computing are-
1. CloudSim
2. OMNet++
3. Cloudera
4. Hadoop for big data
Cloud security
Hybrid cloud computing
Also big data on the cloud, if they have good database skills and knowledge of analytic.
These topics can be good for academic research.
