This book offers a systematic and practical overview of Quality of Service prediction in cloud and service computing. Intended to thoroughly prepare the reader for research in cloud performance, the book first identifies common problems in Qo S prediction and proposes three Qo S prediction models to address them. Then it demonstrates the benefits of Qo S prediction in two Qo S-aware research areas. Lastly, it collects large-scale real-world temporal Qo S data and publicly releases the datasets, making it a valuable resource for the research community. The book will appeal to professionals involved in cloud computing and graduate students working on Qo S-related problems.
