In this paper we consider the data caching problem in next generation data services in the cloud, which is characterized by using monetary cost and access trajectory information to control cache replacements, instead of exploiting capacityoriented strategies as in traditional research. In particular, given a stream of requests to a shared data item with respect to a homogeneous cost model, we first...
We propose a new concept of minmax memory claim (MMC) to achieve cost-effective workflow computations in in-memory cloud computing environments. The minmax-memory claim is defined as the minimum amount of memory required to finish the workflow without compromising its maximum concurrency. With MMC, the workflow tenants can achieve the best performance via the maximum concurrency while minimizing the...
As Network Function Virtualization (NFV) becomes reality and cloud computing offers a scalable pay-as-you-go charging model, more network operators would like to outsource their Service Function Chains (SFC) to the public clouds in order to reduce the operational cost. However, how to minimize the operational cost with Quality of Service (QoS) guarantee when outsourcing SFC is still an open problem...
Content distribution networks (CDNs) built on clouds have recently started to emerge. Compared to conventional CDNs, cloud-based CDNs have the benefit of cost efficient hosting services without owning infrastructure. However, resource provisioning and replica placement in cloud CDNs involve a number of challenging issues, mainly due to the dynamic nature of demand patterns. To deal with this dynamic...
