Abstract :
Distributed Clouds, or just D-Clouds, can be seen as a paradigm that is able to exploit the potential of sharing resources across geographic boundaries and provide latency-bound allocation of resources to third-party developers. The representation of D-Cloud resources is a challenge that involves the careful choice of characteristics that drive the mapping of requests on the substrate resources. Regarding these problems, this paper introduces the Cloud Modeling Language (CloudML), a vendor-neutral XML-based language intended to integrate the description of different cloud related aspects such as computational and network resources, services profiles, and developers´ requests in an integrated way. Furthermore, the CloudML provides a way to describe geographical location aware services, seen particularly indispensable in D-Cloud scenarios.
