Parallel computing can improve the data-processing efficiency significantly. However, the traditional approaches, such as MPI and MapReduce, need to program in the special environment. In this paper, a new distributed computing framework named MEX is proposed. Users just provides the input files and the name of an executable program to MEX. Then MEX will automatically process these files on a cluster...
Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) allows users to rent resources from the Cloud to meet their various computing requirements. The pay-as-you-use model, however, poses a nontrivial technical challenge to the IaaS cloud service providers: how to fast provision a large number of virtual machines (VMs) to meet users' dynamic computing requests? We address this challenge with VMThunder, a new VM provisioning...
Combining virtual machine technology, virtual computing is able to effectively aggregate the widely distributed resources to provide users services. We view the federation of multiple data centers and voluntary resources on the Internet as a very large scale resource pool. Based on the tree structure of the pool, this paper proposes a virtual machine deployment algorithm, called iVDA, considers users'...
Building distributed applications is difficult mostly because of concurrency management. Existing approaches primarily include events and threads. Researchers and developers have been debating for decades to prove which is superior. Although the conclusion is far from obvious, this long debate clearly shows that neither of them is perfect. One of the problems is that they are both complex and error-prone...
Combining virtual machine technology and network computing technology will be able to effectively aggregate the widely distributed heterogeneous and autonomous resources in the Internet. This paper proposes a virtual machine server aggregation algorithm, called DVSA, based on hierarchical clustering method for virtual computing environment. According to network latencies, the algorithm clusters virtual...
