A Cloud Services Research and Selection System

Cloud computing is a technology that has emerged in the last decade and that is transforming the IT industry. Our interest in this work is the research area of Cloud services search and selection systems. These systems allow Cloud users to search through Cloud services and find the ones that match their requirements. In this paper, we present a Cloud Service Research and Selection System based on an adaptation of the Skyline algorithm. The system selects Cloud services that best meet the users' requirements from a database of Cloud services. We also present some experimental results which approve our method.
