Computation and Storage in the Cloud Understanding the Trade-Offs

"Cloud computing systems charge for both data storage and for calculating, say Yuan, Yang.and Chen., so there is a trade-off between storing large data sets in the cloud or deleting them and regenerating then each time they are needed. They suggest some approaches to figuring out which is cheaper. they cover motivating example and research issues, a cost model of data set storage in the cloud, minimum cost benchmarking approaches,." --ProtoView.com, January 2014
