Publicação Acesso Aberto Cloud computing and security.2012 - Simões, Paulo; Cardoso, AbílioThere is always a strong pressure on Information Technology (IT) to do more with fewer resources. Over the decades, this pressure to rationalize IT costs spurred a number of paradigms, technologies and buzzwords. Some of them failed to meet their promises, while others became successfully embed in IT practices and infrastructures, providing sizeable benefits. The paradigm of cloud computing is currently riding this wave, promising to be the next great revolution in IT. Cloud computing appears to have the right technological and market ingredients to become widely successful. However, there are some key areas where cloud computing is still underperforming – such as security. Availability, security, privacy and integrity of information are some of the biggest concerns in the process of designing, implementing and running IT services based on cloud computing, due to technological and legal matters. There is already an extensive set of recommendations for IT management and IT governance in general – such as the popular Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) guidelines and Control Objectives for Information and related Technology (COBIT) recommendations. However, the field of cloud computing remains poorly covered. ITIL and other general sources can be sometimes translated to the context of cloud computing, but there are many new challenges not addressed by those generic resources. Recognizing this state of affairs, a number of initiatives already started focusing on novel proposals specifically targeting cloud computing but, up to now, with no significant outcomes. In this paper, we discuss the security implications involved in the migration of IT services to the cloud-computing model, proposing a set of rules and guidelines to be followed in the process of migrating IT services to the cloud. This set of rules and guidelines largely builds on general ITIL recommendations, discussing how to extend/adapt them to the field of cloud computing and identifying which a number of novel areas not covered by current ITIL recommendations.Publicação Acesso Aberto EU27 Higher Education Institutions and COVID-192021-06-02 - Sobral, Sónia Rolland; Cardoso, Abílio; Jesus-Silva, Natacha; Moreira, FernandoCOVID-19 forced higher education institutions to reinvent themselves. The (usually) face-to-face education has swapped to distance contingency education. This change brought about numerous challenges that impose adjustments in several dimensions, such as pedagogical strategies and the dependence on teaching platforms and computer systems—and, above all, the new relationship between the various actors (students, teachers, and management staff). All the sudden changes, combined with uncertainty concerning what was happening, created several strategies and options. This paper has the main purpose of analyzing the scientific production on higher education of EU27 academic institutions during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic in journals indexed in Clarivate Analytics’ Web of Science and Elsevier’s Scopus. The sample is composed of 22 articles in total. The results show that the articles were published in 19 journals; their main focuses are Higher Education, COVID-19, and distance learning. In our database, we find several types of concerns, which shows that HEIs have a wide range of dimensions. We intend this article to be an instrument, not only to identify what was done in 2020, but to point out clues for the future.Publicação Acesso Aberto A support framework for the migration of e-Government services to the cloud.2016 - Simões, Paulo; Cardoso, Abílio; Moreira, FernandoPublic and federal agencies from countries around the world are increasingly providing information technology based services via the Internet - known as e-government. Several of the general requirements of e-government services are satisfactorily met by the emerging Cloud Computing paradigm that promises a number of benefits such as service elasticity (the ability to handle peaks and troughs of demands); optimization of costs; capacity to handle large volumes of data; and a generalized model of Internet-based access for end-users. For this reason, it is no surprise that Cloud related technologies are gradually leveraging e-government platforms. In this chapter, a support framework is outlined that complies with and extends the well-known ITIL (Information Technology Infrastructure Library) set of best practices for IT (Information Technology) service management. It is suggested that the proposed framework can be usefully deployed to assist in the process of migrating e-government services provision to the Cloud Computing environment.Publicação Acesso Aberto Migration Results to a Private Cloud by using the M2CCF2016-01-17 - Cardoso, Abílio; Moreira, FernandoThe cloud computing paradigm is transforming the way IT services are provided and consumed by changing IT products to services. The migration of in-house IT services to cloud computing must be performed carefully so as not to cause high losses in the institution. In this paper, we present the use of the framework developed by the same authors, to the migration of services, applications, data and infrastructures to cloud computing, M2CCF, compatible with Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL). The work also discusses the results gathered from the real implementation of the framework in the migration of IT services to a private cloud.Publicação Acesso Aberto Applicability of IT service management in the migration to cloud computing.2015-03 - Cardoso, AbílioThe cloud computing (CC) paradigm is transforming the way Information Technology (IT) services are provided by converting IT products into services. This modification allows the delivery of IT services to end users in a way the customers stop purchasing products and start purchasing services instead. The successful migration to this paradigm by an organization requires a deep comprehension of its own IT as well as the dynamics of CC. To this purpose, a framework aggregating the activities that must be undertaken in two groups, the on premise and the off premise, was developed. The on premise group includes the actions developed by the customer, such as the development of a strategy plan, the attainment of a detailed definition of the organization processes and services and the definition of what to migrate to the cloud. The activities developed with the support of the candidates and selected CSPs are in the off premise group. This group encompasses activities such as the providers services’, the details ‘identification of the technologies related to the implementation of the organization processes into the cloud and the analysis of the conditions of service level agreement and the contract. Furthermore, there is already an extensive set of recommendations for IT management and IT governance in general – such as the Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) and the Control Objectives for Information and related Technology (COBIT) recommendations. However, the field of CC remains poorly covered. Acknowledging this state of affairs and adding the fact that CC is concerned with IT services, not to mention the number of organizations using ITIL in order to manage their IT services, the fact that ITIL is being recognized as a set of good practices, led to the decision of studying the applicability of service management, namely ITIL, to the migration of IT services to CC. The motivation of this study is related to the circumstance that organizations can take advantage of the work already carried out, the information gathered and the management of services when implementing ITIL. Additionally, if the customer and the supplier implement ITIL, the communication between them is also improved. Accordingly, a framework to migrate IT services, applications data and infrastructures to CC has been developed and the processes of this framework have been mapped to the ITIL’s framework.Publicação Acesso Restrito Information technology infrastructure library and the migration to cloud computing2018-08-05 - Escudero, David Fonseca; Cardoso, Abílio; Moreira, FernandoThe decision of migrating Information Technology to Cloud Computing, by an organisation, encompasses various decisions that must be undertaken in order to minimise risks and to perform a smooth and accurate transition to the Cloud Computing. Accordingly, to migrate Information Technology services to the Cloud Computing in a straightforward way, with more control and in a more accurate way, the organisation must use the right tools. Having in mind the Cloud Computing focus on Information Technology services shared with the Information Technology Infrastructure Library and the latter has processes that have been tested by distinct organisations it makes sense to research whether the Information Technology Infrastructure Library processes can be used in the migration to Cloud Computing. Accordingly, in this paper, we investigate on one hand, how Information Technology Infrastructure Library could be useful to the migration of services, applications, and data to the Cloud Computing, and on the other hand, we will discuss about how these process help people to improve their skills in the knowledge accessibility. The research was validated with the implementation of a case study and with interviews to the stakeholders of the whole process. With this research, we were able to verify that the ITIL could be used to support the migration to cloud computing.Publicação Acesso Aberto Higher education disruption through IoT and Big Data: A conceptual approach2017 - Cardoso, Abílio; Ferreira, Maria João; Moreira, FernandoThe emergence of new technologies such as IoT and Big Data, the change in the behavior of society in general and the younger generation in particular, require higher education institutions to “look” for teaching differently. This statement is complemented by the prediction of the futurist Thomas Frey, who postulates that “in 14 years it will be a big deal when students learn from robot teachers over the internet”. Thus, it is necessary to urgently begin a disruption of current teaching models, to be able to include in these processes the new technologies and the daily habits of the new generations. The early usage of mobile devices and the constant connection to the Internet (social networks, among others) mean that the current generation of young people, who are reaching higher education, has the most technological literacy ever. In this new context, this article presents a disruptive conceptual approach to higher education, using information gathered by IoT and based on Big Data & Cloud Computing and Learning Analytics analysis tools. This approach will, for example, allow individualized solutions taking into account the characteristics of the students, to help them customize their curriculum and overcome their limitations and difficulties, throughout the learning process .
