With an increasing number of cloud service providers (CSPs), research works on multi-cloud environments to provide solutions to avoid vendor lock-in and deal with the single-point failure problem have expanded considerably. However, a few schemes focus on the conditional privacy protection authentication of vehicular networks under a multi-cloud environment. In this regard, we propose a robust and extensible authentication scheme for vehicular networks to fulfil the evergrowing diversified service demands from users. According to our solution, the vehicles need to register with the trusted authority (TA) only once to achieve a fast and efficient authentication with CSPs. Additionally, as long as the new CSP is successfully registered in TA, it can participate in vehicular service. A cloud broker, which is managed by the TA, is responsible for connecting all the cloud services; consequently, the complexity involved in the selection of CSPs is hidden from the users' view. A detailed security analysis establishes that our scheme can fulfil conditional privacy protection and achieve the security objectives of vehicular networks. Our scheme is based on elliptic curve cryptography and does not employ the complex bilinear pairing operation. An evaluation of performance of the proposed scheme indicates that it is suitable for applications involving vehicular networks.

“…The TTP does not operate in favor of any of the transacting parties. Accordingly all service description parameters and service level guarantees that are provided in the TTP SLA apply unanimously to any party (Stamou, Aubert, Gateau, & Morin, 2013). The trusted third party provides an independent module that can monitor (and log) all communication between clients and service providers.…”

Establishing and monitoring SLA violations in real-time has become a critical issue for Cloud Computing. In this paper the authors investigate this issue and propose a model to express the SLA contract requirements using Model Driven Engineering (MDE), as a mean for establishing service level agreements between a cloud provider and cloud customer in the context of a particular service provision. The participation of a Trusted Third Party (TTP) may be necessary in order to resolve conflicts between prospective signatories, likewise to monitor SLA violations in real-time in the goal to ensure online monitoring cloud services and provide better than best-effort behavior for clouds. The main focus of this work is firstly to use MDE technology for the creation of the SLA contract and then to integrate TTP that should be able to apply an advanced penalty model that guarantees the performance and the reliability of the Cloud.

“…Both in case of dispute and for monitoring the service at runtime involvement of a mutually trusted third party may be necessary. Stamou et al describe in more detail the concept of a Trusted Third Party (TTP) and requirements to build a TTP in the context of service transactions in Cloud environments [147]. Automating this conflict resolution process clearly provides substantial benefits over the current practice where the user both has to prove that the provider failed to meet the SLA and to claim the compensation defined in the penalty clauses (cf [34] p 5).…”

Research work that led to this thesis started almost a decade ago. Naturally, many people were involved in joint research during this time period. A number of them have directly or indirectly contributed to the work presented in this thesis and deserve acknowledgment. First of all, among the current (and former) colleagues in my research group and the various European and German projects through which a significant part of the presented research was funded, I would like to thank Oliver Wäldrich, Philipp Wieder, Angela Rumpl for fruitful fundamental discussions, and (in no particular order)
