Cloud bursting is one of the key research topics in the cloud computing communities. A well designed cloud bursting module enables private clouds to automatically launch virtual machines (VMs) to public clouds when more resources are needed. One of the main challenges in developing a cloud bursting module is to decide when and where to launch a VM so that all resources are most effectively and efficiently...
The advent of cloud systems has spurred the emergence of an impressive assortment of Internet services. Recent pressures on enhancing the profitability by curtailing surging dollar costs on energy have posed challenges to, as well as placed a new emphasis on, designing energy-efficient request dispatching and resource management algorithms. What further adds to the design challenge is the highly diverse...
The focus of this project is to study the design of a cyber-physical interface for automated vital sign readings in Electronic Medical Record Systems. This is presented as a solution for a need in actual EMR systems where the reading of vital signs is done manually which is error prone and time consuming. The domain application knowledge and prototype used for the development of this paper is made...
High performance computing data centers are playing increasingly important roles in our daily life. However, as data centers increase in size and number, the power consumption at the data centers has also increased dramatically. We are facing the challenge of reducing energy consumption, lowering down the peak inlet temperature and at the same time meeting short make span requirements. In this paper,...
With the prosperity of Cluster Computing, Cloud Computing, Grid Computing, and other distributed high performance computing systems, Internet service requests become more and more diverse. The large variety of services plus different Quality of Service (QoS) considerations make it challenging to design effective allocate and scheduling algorithms to satisfy the overall service requirements, especially...
In this paper, we propose a new preemptive scheduling algorithm which belongs to a new family of real-time service oriented scheduling problems. As the complementarity of our previous non-preemptive algorithm, real time tasks are scheduled preemptively with the objective of maximizing the total utility this time. Different from the traditional utility accrual scheduling problem that each task is associated...
