Some more resources on the Cloud

Right then. My plea for sharing good work on the cloud has failed. I did what professor/nerd types do. I researched a bit more. So I now taunt you with more sharing by me. Christopher Yoo appears to be diving into Ambrosia (as I like to call the cloud). His paper, Cloud Computing: Architectural and Policy Implications can serve as another way into cloud ideas and literature.

Oh and I love the fact that the paper has a references section. They are below fold with links where possible (I inserted from the list where provided and added some of my own. So errors etc., are mine; not Christopher’s). In other words, thanks Christoper and that whole research, cite culture thing. It worked and gave me more on which to chew.
