Adopting Multi-Cloud Services with ConfidenceKevin Hakanson
In transitioning to multi-cloud, IT organizations have the same responsibility to provide quality service and operational security yet have a much greater need to understand how to efficiently govern and manage these disparate cloud services.
In this session, we will examine some key patterns and models taken from a Cloud Adoption Framework through a multi-cloud lens. The presentation will include a mixture of high-level guidance, examples where vocabulary and terminology differ, and opinions on when to utilize cloud-agnostic vs cloud-native technologies for strategic decisions.
Attendees will leave with a better understanding of how to implement a Cloud Adoption Framework across multiple clouds and a higher level of confidence in their multi-cloud adoption plans.
Web Services Based Information Retrieval Agent System for Cloud ComputingEditor IJCATR
Cloud computing is Internet based system development in which large scalable computing resources are provided “as a
service” over the Internet to users and has attracted more and more attention from industry and research community. However, the
concept of cloud computing does not provide facilities for the knowledge discovery and information retrieval; i.e. clouds need to be
intelligent and autonomous. On the other hand, Web Service plays important role in Service Oriented Computing (SOC) in cloud
environment. Retrieving desired specific information from Web Services on cloud environment cannot be done by single Web Service.
So, there should be a possibility to combine existing services together in order to fulfil the request. To compose Web Services, Agents
can give great help. Therefore, this research mainly focus on providing a framework for retrieving information from Cloud using
composite Web Services by means of Multi-Agent System.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Education Systems
2. CLOUD
A model of computation and data storage based on
“pay as you go” access to “unlimited” remote data
center capabilities.
A cloud infrastructure provides a framework to
manage scalable, reliable, on-demand access to
applications.
Cloud services provide the “invisible” backend to
many of our mobile applications.
3. “Cloud Computing refers to both the applications
delivered as services over the Internet and the
hardware and systems software in the datacenters that
provide those services. The services themselves have
long been referred to as Software as a Service (SaaS).
The datacenter hardware and software is what we will
call a Cloud. When a Cloud is made available in a pay-as-
you-go manner to the general public, we call it a Public
Cloud; the service being sold is Utility Computing. We
use the term Private Cloud to refer to internal
datacenters of a business or other organization, not
made available to the general public. Thus, Cloud
Computing is the sum of SaaS and Utility Computing,
but does not include Private Clouds.” (pg. 1)

5. NIST CLOUD DEFINITION
“The National Institute of Standards and Technology
(NIST) defines cloud computing as a "pay-per-use model
for enabling available, convenient and on-demand
network access to a shared pool of configurable
computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage,
applications and services) that can be rapidly
provisioned and released with minimal management
effort or service provider interaction."
6. DEFINING THE CLOUD

19. Recommendations
• The schools must take initiative to improve infrastructure
and resources needed for using cloud applications with a
well-assisted IT help team.
• Efforts to advance the adoption of cloud computing in
higher education in Saudi Arabia should focus on
improving attitude towards the use of the technologies
for education and on ensuring that the facilitating
conditions are addressed.
