Research Area:  Cloud Computing
Cloud computing emerged as a centralised paradigm that made infinite computing resources available on demand. Nevertheless, the ever-increasing computing capacities present on smart connected things and devices calls for the decentralisation of Cloud computing to avoid unnecessary latencies and fully exploit accessible computing capacities at the edges of the network. Whilst these decentralised Cloud models represent a significant breakthrough from a Cloud perspective, they are rooted in existing research areas such as Mobile Cloud Computing, Mobile Ad hoc Computing, and Edge computing. This article analyses the pre-existing works to determine their role in Decentralised Cloud and future computing development.
