For Education: A
new dawn?
Abstract
Cloud computing is an emerging new computing
pattern for delivering computing services. This
computing approach relies on a number of
existing technologies, e.g., the Internet,
virtualization, grid computing, Web services, etc.
The provision of this service in a pay-as-you-go
way through (largely) the popular medium of the
Internet gives this service a new distinctiveness.
Conclusion
Cloud computing is an emerging computing pattern which
promises to provide opportunities for delivering a variety of
computing services in a way that has not been experienced
before.
Some of the laws (e.g., UKs DPA) that govern issues of data
protection and data security need to be clear
