Secured and reliable crypto coding schemes for distributed data storage

Abstract

Cloud computing is one of the fast-growing and cost-effective newlinetechnologies used in many recent types of research and applications such as newlinedata storage and backup services, education, the field of art, entertainment, newlinebusiness, management, social networking, etc. Cloud computing is a kind of newlineclient-server architecture which originated from distributed computing, grid newlinecomputing, cluster computing, and utility computing. It is a model for easy newlineaccess to networking resources like servers, storage, applications, services, etc. newlineon demand. It can be easily provisioned and freed with the least management newlinesupport. From the user s point of view, the cloud acts as one point of access of newlineany physical resource on demand for the computation needs with metered newlineservice and pay-for-use. Cloud storage permits the data to be stored remotely newlineand cached temporarily on the desktop computer, mobile phone or other newlineinternet-linked devices. Although there are various merits in cloud computing, newlinea great hurdle to its use is security and reliability. newline newline newline
