Distributed storage systems, e.g., Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS), have been widely used in datacenters for handling large amounts of data due to their excellent performance in terms of fault tolerance, reliability and scalability. However, these storage systems usually adopt the same replication and storage strategy to guarantee data availability, i.e., creating the same number of replicas...
Time synchronization is important for many applications running in wireless sensor network. A classical algorithm, Timing-Sync Protocol for Sensor Networks (TPSN), has been widely adopted, which can achieve of the goal of high accuracy and energy-efficiency. However, the accuracy of TPSN algorithm will decrease in practical environments since communication conflicts occur in an ad-hoc wireless environment...
This paper proposed a new improved microcanonical mean field annealing algorithm (MMFA), and applied to the task scheduling. Firstly we put forward two new strategies, which are energy incentive strategy with sectioned and mixed energy compensation strategy. Secondly, we use the same energy function and new state generation method as MFA algorithm in the new MMFA algorithm, to ensure that the new...
In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) based on feedback control mechanism. Besides handling a periodic tasks, our algorithm significantly reduces the energy consumption of periodic tasks and consequently the energy consumption of the whole task set. The results show that, comparing to on-line dynamic voltage scaling (the best algorithm to our knowledge), our approach...
