Description
Summary:Cloud computing is a recent trend in IT that moves computing and data away from desktop and portable PCs into large data centers. Cloud computing is on-demand computing in which the computing resources are owned and managed by a service provider and the users access the resources via the Internet. But cloud computing potential doesn't begin and end with the personal computer's transformation into a thin client. License management and economic resource allocation is a major issue faced by cloud computing paradigm. In this paper we propose MobiLim, a framework which addresses major problems related to license management and economic resource allocation in cloud computing. This framework named MobiLim is managed by independent software vendor (ISVs), who controls access to the resource provider resources. MobiLim provides a secure and robust license management solution as well as allocate resources economically to the customers.
