This book constitutes revised selected papers from the
International Conference on Advanced Computing, Networking and
Security, ADCONS 2011, held in Surathkal, India, in December 2011.
The 73 papers included in this book were carefully reviewed and
selected from 289 submissions. The papers are organized in topical
sections on distributed computing, image processing, pattern
recognition, applied algorithms, wireless networking, sensor
networks, network infrastructure, cryptography, Web security, and
application security.
Cloud computing-accessing computing resources over the Internet-is
rapidly changing the landscape of information technology. Its
primary benefits compared to on-premise computing models are
reduced costs and increased agility and scalability. Hence, cloud
computing is receiving considerable interest among several
stakeholders-businesses, the IT industry, application developers,
researchers, and students. To successfully embrace this new
computing model, these stakeholders need to acquire new cloud
computing skills and knowledge. This book is designed to provide
readers with a clear and thorough understanding of the key aspects
of cloud computing. Presented in an easy-to-understand style,
Essentials of Cloud Computing begins with an introduction to basic
cloud computing concepts. It then covers cloud computing
architecture, deployment models, programming models, and cloud
service types, such as Software as a Service (SaaS) and
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). It also discusses the cloud's
networking aspects, major service providers, open source support,
and security issues. The book concludes with a discussion of
several advanced topics, such as mobile clouds, media clouds, and
green clouds. This book is intended for beginners as well as
experienced practitioners who want to learn more about cloud
computing. It includes many case studies, programming examples, and
industry-based applications. Each chapter concludes with review
questions that help readers check their understanding of the
presented topics. Essentials of Cloud Computing will help readers
understand the issues and challenges of cloud computing and will
give them the tools needed to develop and deploy applications in
clouds.
A number of technologies have been developed to remove chromium
from the effluents but none seems to be effective at the industrial
scale. The present study is an effort in this direction, where
Cr(III) and Cr(VI)can be removed from tanning effluent by the use
of Cr tolerant bacterial isolates from chromium contaminated sites.
Since Chromium poses a threat to humans and environment, it is
pertinent to have a biofilm based chromium remediation strategy.
This study gives an insight into in-situ remediation of chromium,
by the development of biofilms using indigenous bacteria isolated
from tannery industrial environment. Biofilm design techniques and
technology development would aid in alleviating problem due to
inorganic pollutants besides chromium from tannery effluent.
