Cloud computing can cut the cost of running small workloads though may actually be more expensive for larger compute jobs, compared to the costs of running such work in-house, according to researchers from Pennsylvania State University.

Researcher Byung Chul presented these findings at the Usenix HotCloud 2011 Workshop on Hot Topics in Cloud Computing, held this week in Portland, Oregon.
