Building a Service Oriented Cloud Computing Infrastructure Using Microsoft CCR/DSS System

Cloud computing is new paradigm for provision of a computing infrastructure and services the over network using a pool of abstracted, virtualized, and scalable, computing resources. One of the challenges is the lack of standard in configuration, management, and programming. Thus, we propose that a service oriented cloud can be built and program using Microsoft Windows server and program using Microsoft CCR/DSS. The architecture of this service oriented cloud is presented in this paper. In addition, a practical logistic application called pickup and delivery problem with time window (PDPTW) is developed to demonstrate the concept. The experiments show that a very high speed up of more than 50 times on 16 quad core node and 80-90% efficiency can be obtained using a cloud computing system based on our concept.
