Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cloud computing has become a foundational pillar for modern digital infrastructures, enabling scalable, cost-effective, and on-demand services across diverse domains. As organizations adopt increasingly complex architectures—including multi-cloud, hybrid, and edge-integrated environments—the need for intelligent and resilient service orchestration is more critical than ever.
This Special Issue focuses on the design, implementation, and evaluation of advanced cloud service orchestration strategies that ensure agility, fault tolerance, and performance in heterogeneous and distributed environments. Key challenges include managing multi-cloud heterogeneity, ensuring end-to-end security and compliance, optimizing real-time responsiveness, and achieving energy-efficient resource allocation.
We invite high-quality contributions that address emerging orchestration techniques, including AI/ML-driven automation, serverless computing, edge and fog computing integration, and software-defined infrastructure. The goal is to highlight solutions that enhance cloud resilience and agility for real-world applications such as smart cities, healthcare systems, autonomous vehicles, and enterprise IT.
By exploring the intersection of cloud computing with emerging technologies, this Special Issue aims to foster innovative research that enables the next generation of robust, scalable, and intelligent digital infrastructures.
I look forward to receiving your contributions.
Dr. Changxin Bai
