<span lang="EN-US">Iraqi people have been without energy for nearly two decades, even though their geographic position provides a high intensity of radiation appropriate for the construction of solar plants capable of producing significant quantities of electricity. Also, the annual sunny hours in Iraq are between 3,600 to 4,300 hours which makes it perfect to use the photovoltaics arrays to generate electricity with very high efficiency compared to many countries, especially in Europe. This paper shows the amount of electric energy generated by the meter square of crystalline silicon in the photovoltaic (PV) array that already installed in 18 states in Iraq for each month of the year. The results of the meter-square of PV array in three tracking positions are presented in this paper. This paper shows that the average electricity generated in North cities (Dohuk, Al-Sulaymaniyah, and Erbil) are less than the southern cities in the winter season (three positions) by about 40-50%. Iraq has a stable PV electrical generation during all the year in all regions except the North cities while the highest cities in electricity generation are (Najaf and Al-Anbar).</span>

Cloud-computing is becoming an increasingly popular model for accessing computing resources. The demand for advanced computing capabilities is increasing; however, conventional resource management systems have many drawbacks such as being costly, limited resources, and inefficiency. Therefore, an advanced management is needed. In this paper, we propose an innovative private cloud platform structure designed to secure sensitive company information, which other cloud offerings may not always protect effectively. The aim of this platform is to boost the efficiency in determining an enterprise's ability, custom priorities, and security threats. As a result, the proposed private cloud system provides account login with a username and password for each client. Then after login, each client can access to a proposed private cloud system and using different services privately such as file sharing, word document, slideshows, spreadsheets, local emails, photo sharing and display, online video playing, and also there is a specific storage area for each user after he login to his account. This storage area will enable the user for storing his files and documents on the cloud and using, retrieve or even editing them from any end device connecting to this private cloud inside organization, universities, Enterprise Company etc. without required to an internet connection for any reason with take in consideration the high privacy and security.

In recent years, data centre (DC) networks have improved their rapid exchanging abilities. Software-defined networking (SDN) is presented to alternate the impression of conventional networks by segregating the control plane from the SDN data plane. The SDN presented overcomes the limitations of traditional DC networks caused by the rapidly incrementing amounts of apps, websites, data storage needs, etc. Software-defined networking data centres (SDN-DC), based on the open-flow (OF) protocol, are used to achieve superior behaviour for executing traffic load-balancing (LB) jobs. The LB function divides the traffic-flow demands between the end devices to avoid links congestion. In short, SDN is proposed to manage more operative configurations, efficient enhancements and further elasticity to handle massive network schemes. In this paper the opendaylight controller (ODL-CO) with new version OF 1.4 protocol and the ant colony optimization algorithm is proposed to test the performance of the LB function using IPv6 in a SDN-DC network by studying the throughput, data transfer, bandwidth and average delay performance of the networking parameters before and after use of the LB algorithm. As a result, after applying the LB, the throughput, data transfer and bandwidth performance increased, while the average delay decreased.

Current requirements in the development of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) are guiding new challenges to the future Internet, for which universal availability, large bandwidth utilization, and dynamic management are critical. However, traditional methods, where a manual configuration of branded devices is used, are complex and fallible. Recently, the development of Software-Defined Networking (SDN) as an optimal solution, has used to manage additional effective configuration, enhanced performance, and more flexibility to deal with huge network designs. It decoupling the control plane from the data plane and submitting a standard interface (OpenFlow) between the control plane and the networking devices (data plane). The software used to maintain the implementation of SDN completely. Thus, a programmatic command is controlling the performance of network devices.

<span>In the last two decades, networks had been changed according to the rapid changing in its requirements. The current Data Center Networks have large number of hosts (tens or thousands) with special needs of bandwidth as the cloud network and the multimedia content computing is increased. The conventional Data Center Networks (DCNs) are highlighted by the increased number of users and bandwidth requirements which in turn have many implementation limitations. The current networking devices with its control and forwarding planes coupling result in network architectures are not suitable for dynamic computing and storage needs. Software Defined networking (SDN) is introduced to change this notion of traditional networks by decoupling control and forwarding planes. So, due to the rapid increase in the number of applications, websites, storage space, and some of the network resources are being underutilized due to static routing mechanisms. To overcome these limitations, a Software Defined Network based Openflow Data Center network architecture is used to obtain better performance parameters and implementing traffic load balancing function. The load balancing distributes the traffic requests over the connected servers, to diminish network congestions, and reduce underutilization problem of servers. As a result, SDN is developed to afford more effective configuration, enhanced performance, and more flexibility to deal with huge network designs</span>
