Summary
In this paper, we shall discuss new classes of cognitive systems dedicated the tasks of dividing and managing shared information not only in simple horizontal structures but also primarily in vertical structures. An example of such a structure is a computer cloud where, from various levels of access to information, one can execute the management process, both with respect to the entire information resources, as well as to individual pieces of data, including shared information. A special type of information is a service, which, similar to various types of data, is subject to the concealment process. In this work, we shall present universal algorithms for shared data management, such that can be used in concealment protocols both for data and services. Due to the above, this paper will treat the term “service” as a special type of data, constituting the basis of their sharing and management processes. Moreover, we shall determine the impact of the proposed algorithms on the enhancement of data/service management processes in Cloud Computing as well as the impact of the service management and data sharing processes in Could Computing on decision‐taking processes in systems supporting the management processes.
