Software Engineering for the Cloud: a
Research
Roadmap

Introduction
 The cloud computing is defined as the
availability of computer system sources that
provide a platform for storing large amount of
data.
 The goal of this PowerPoint presentation is to
evaluate the idea of the cloud computing and
critical investigate a research article based
on software engineering methodologies.
 This paper will involve a journal paper that is
“software engineering for the cloud: a
research roadmap”

Intention and content of
paper
 This research study highlights the fundamental
concept of cloud computing and role of software
engineering in the field of cloud computing.
 The authors analysed the risk factors and
challenges associated with the cloud computing
technology.
 After critically analysing the research paper it
has been found that the cloud based services
provide a way to business industries for
acquiring the computer sources and enable
payment related procedure
