Abstract

With the development of information communication technologies, cloud computing and its relevant functions are becoming quickly integrated and are increasingly being applied in business and daily activities. As a shared and configurable computing resource, cloud computing is becoming an inevitable process of the decision-making system and it plays important roles in business (Gupta, Seetharaman, &Raj, 2013; Hsu, Ray, & Li-Hsieh, 2014). Considering cloud allocation and pricing jointly together is a challenging task in the extant study, since there are fixed pricing, dynamic pricing, game theory-based auction design, and machine learning-based mechanisms. All of the different cloud pricing strategies have common goals to distribute the available cloud computing efficiently and fairly, as well as to profit participants effectively and optimally. 

Keywords: Cloud allocation, blockchain, auction theory, smart contract
