Proof-of-concept Prototypes

Cloudle: a Cloud service search engine: In 2010, Professor Sim's research laboratory developed the first-ever proof-of-concept prototype of a Cloud service search engine and his team won two Best Student Papers Awards, one in 2010 and one in 2014.  

Cloud pricing mechanism: His laboratory also built negotiation agents for pricing Cloud resources and carried out case studies comparing his negotiation Cloud negotiation pricing model with Amazon EC2's pricing models. This work was published in the IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man and Cybernetics, Part B - listed as one of the top IEEE Journals.   

Cloud task execution tool: His laboratory also built an agent-based Cloud BoT execution tool called "CloudAgent" and carried out a case study using agents for resource allocation in Amazon EC2.
