الملخص الإنجليزي

Cloud computing has the potential to be particularly suitable for collaboration commerce (c-commerce) because it generally requires less extensive customization, development, integration, operation, and maintenance than other computing resources.

Using cloud technology effectively is essential for business companies to flourish in today's highly competitive marketplace.

Small and midsized enterprises are often unable to leverage technology because of the high cost and complexity of on premises solutions which makes it difficult for them to compete against large enterprises.

Cloud computing drastically reduces these challenges by giving small and midsized enterprises the same tools used by large enterprises at a reasonable cost.

However, upgrading c-commerce IT infrastructure, to run on cloud computing, faces a number of challenges, such as lack of effective design and implementation models.

This thesis presents a description and performance evaluation of a new model of c-commerce that utilizes the evolving cloud computing technologies; therefore, it is referred to as cloud collaborative commerce (cc-commerce) model.

The model consists of six main components, these are: client, provider, auditor, broker, security and privacy, and communications network.

It can be deployed using two configurations, namely, the provider-access and broker-access configurations.

In the first configuration, the client accesses a provider, which has accessed to all required resources locally, while in the second configuration, a client accesses a provider, which may acquire resources from other clouds hosted under different public Internet protocol (IP) addresses.

A special case of the broker-access configuration is a c-commerce system when each collaborating cloud hosts resources for only one enterprise.

The new cc-commerce model is used to develop a simple and flexible test tool, namely, the cc-commerce test (3CT) tool.

The performance of the new model is evaluated in different scenarios using the 3CT tool.

The scenarios simulate three different c-commerce configurations and one cc-commerce configuration.

For each configuration, the average response time and speedup factor are calculated and compared.

The results obtained demonstrate that the cc-commerce application performs faster than an equivalent c-commerce application for various equivalent data retrieving processes.

In other words, for the scenarios simulated in this thesis, the response time is always less for cc-commerce than c-commerce, and the resulting speedup factor is always more than 2.

Finally, based on the obtained results conclusions are drawn and recommendations for future work are pointed-out.
