Systematic Literature Review (SLR) of Resource Scheduling and Security in Cloud Computing (2019)
Journal Article
Sheikh, A., Munro, M., & Budgen, D. (2019). Systematic Literature Review (SLR) of Resource Scheduling and Security in Cloud Computing. International Journal of Advanced Computer Science and Applications, 10(4), 35-44. https://doi.org/10.14569/ijacsa.2019.0100404

Resource scheduling in cloud computing is a com-plex task due to the number and variety of resources available and the volatility of usage-patterns of resources considering that the resource setting is on the service provider. This compounded further... Read More about Systematic Literature Review (SLR) of Resource Scheduling and Security in Cloud Computing.

Early Dropout Prediction for Programming Courses Supported by Online Judges (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pereira, F. D., Oliveira, E., Cristea, A., Fernandes, D., Silva, L., Aguiar, G., Alamri, A., & Alshehri, M. (2019, June). Early Dropout Prediction for Programming Courses Supported by Online Judges. Presented at AIED 2019, Chicago, IL

Many educational institutions have been using online judges in programming classes, amongst others, to provide faster feedback for students and to reduce the teacher’s workload. There is some evidence that online judges also help in reducing dropout.... Read More about Early Dropout Prediction for Programming Courses Supported by Online Judges.
