Hassan, S., Abbas Kamboh, A., Azam, F..  2014.  Analysis of Cloud Computing Performance, Scalability, Availability, amp; Security. Information Science and Applications (ICISA), 2014 International Conference on. :1-5.

Cloud Computing means that a relationship of many number of computers through a contact channel like internet. Through cloud computing we send, receive and store data on internet. Cloud Computing gives us an opportunity of parallel computing by using a large number of Virtual Machines. Now a days, Performance, scalability, availability and security may represent the big risks in cloud computing. In this paper we highlights the issues of security, availability and scalability issues and we will also identify that how we make our cloud computing based infrastructure more secure and more available. And we also highlight the elastic behavior of cloud computing. And some of characteristics which involved for gaining the high performance of cloud computing will also be discussed.

Jiri Simsa, Randy Bryant, Garth Gibson, Jason Hickey.  2011.  Efficient Exploratory Testing of Concurrent Systems.

In our experience, exploratory testing has reached a level of maturity that makes it a practical and often the most cost-effective approach to testing. Notably, previous work has demonstrated that exploratory testing is capable of finding bugs even in well-tested systems [4, 17, 24, 23]. However, the number of bugs found gives little indication of the efficiency of a testing approach. To drive testing efficiency, this paper focuses on techniques for measuring and maximizing the coverage achieved by exploratory testing. In particular, this paper describes the design, implementation, and evaluation of Eta, a framework for exploratory testing of multithreaded components of a large-scale cluster management system at Google. For simple tests (with millions to billions of possible executions), Eta achieves complete coverage one to two orders of magnitude faster than random testing. For complex tests, Eta adopts a state space reduction technique to avoid the need to explore over 85% of executions and harnesses parallel processing to explore multiple test executions concurrently, achieving a throughput increase of up to 17.5×.
