Abstract:

Utility Computing (UC) misses an explicit definition of the core relation between IT resource utilisation, its total costs and service prices. Additionally, the implications of complex usage scenarios occurring in UC have not been examined for the service operations lifecycle. Missing those, UC service offers fail in: prediction of resource utilisation and dependent operational costs prediction, calculation of subsequent price scales, and subsequent runtime gross price calculations.
