Cloud computing and cloud based services have become an integral part of the Internet. The aim of this work is to study what research problems exist and also identify promising solutions. Topics pertaining to Data Centers are also of relevance.

A scraper site is a website that copies content from other websites using web scraping. The purpose of creating such a site can be to earn revenue, usually through advertising and sometimes by selling data. Scraper sites come in various forms, ranging from spammy content sites, to price aggregation and shopping sites, and also web search engines such as Yahoo and online maps such as Google Maps.

When building and training classifiers for classification problems, one commonly encountered problem is that of imbalanced data. For instance, in the case of a binary classifier, this means that one class is hugely overrepresented in the data available. Training classifiers for this kind of datasets has been a problem for some time. In this work, your task is to i) precisely introduce the imbalanced data problem, ii) discuss the state of the art of approaches for mitigating this problem (both from the perspective of learning algorithms and data manipulation techniques) and iii) find out what issues still remain open until today. Note that this topic requires a background in data science, and in particular in classification algorithms. Also, this topic requires a comparatively high reading effort.

One recent trend in machine learning is 'deep learning', where neural networks are employed for solving a wide range of problems. One prominent example of such problems is image classification. While neural networks are in fact delivering sometimes great results, they may also have some weak spots. In this work, your task is to i) make yourself familiar with neural networks, ii) discuss the state-of-the-art in image classification, and iii) to investigate some possible flaws in neural networks. Note that for this topic a background in data science, and in particular in classification algorithms, is strongly recommended. Also, this topic requires a comparatively high reading effort.

Focus of this topic is to study the advancements that have happened over the last decade in Virtualization and Cloud computing. Develop an understanding towards the needs of Datacenter and Cloud computing service models, identify the challenges with Virtualization/VM's in Datacenter/Cloud and address some opportunistic prospects thereof.

As one key feature of ICN, in-network caching receives widespread research interest. where are the data copy need to be cached, and how to process the replacement problem become the key to improve ICN performance.

Routing scalability is a great challenge for ICN's feasibility. How to manage the huge namespace of ICN in a limited FIB without much effect on routing efficiency has drawn more and more attention.

The recent development of telecommunication networks is producing an unprecedented wealth of information. Mobile phone datasets offer access to insights into urban dynamics

Web-based social networks have become popular as a medium for disseminating information and connecting like-minded people. The public accessibility of such networks with the ability to share opinions, thoughts, information, and experience offers great promise to enterprises and governments. In addition to individuals using such networks to connect to their friends and families, governments and enterprises have started exploiting these platforms for delivering their services to citizens and customers. However, the success of such attempts relies on the level of trust that members have with each other as well as with the service provider. This study is to give a comprehensive survey of key technologies on trust in social networks.
