With the maturity and proliferation of Software-Defined Networking (SDN), there has been an increasing number of network deployments that provide dedicated connections through on-demand and in- advance scheduling in support of data-intensive applications for global scientific collaboration. In such dedicated network environments, bandwidth scheduling serves as a key technique to improve the utilization...
Cloud computing provides a cost-effective computing platform for big data workflows where moldable parallel computing models such as MapReduce are widely applied to meet stringent performance requirements. The granularity of task partitioning in each moldable job has a significant impact on workflow completion time and financial cost. We investigate the properties of moldable jobs and design a big-data...
An increasing number of high-performance networks are built over the existing IP network infrastructure to provision dedicated channels for big data transfer. The links in these overlay networks correspond to underlying paths and may share lower-level link segments. We consider a model of overlay networks that incorporates correlated link capacities and linear capacity constraints (LCCs) to formulate...
The efficiency of bandwidth scheduling in high-performance networks is critical to the utilization of network resources and the satisfaction of user requests. In this paper, we formulate a periodic bandwidth scheduling problem to maximize the number of satisfied user requests for bandwidth reservation with deadline constraint on a fixed network path, referred to as multiple deadline-constrained bandwidth...
This paper considers a single source transmitting data to one or more receivers/users over a shared wireless channel. Due to random fading, the wireless channel conditions vary with time and from user to user. Each user has a buffer to store received packets before they are drained. At each time step, the source determines how much power to use for transmission to each user. The source's objective...
