Virtual machine placement (VMP) is mapping virtual machines (VMs) to appropriate physical machines (PMs) to achieve satisfactory objectives such as minimised energy consumption or maximised performance. VMP is considered as a non-deterministic polynomial-time hard (NP-hard) problem. Metaheuristic techniques are able to find near-optimal solutions to NP-hard problems. This paper presents a review upon...
Device-to-device (D2D) communications as an underlaying LTE-Advanced network has proven to be efficient in improving the network performance and releasing the traffic load of eNodeB. By sharing radio resource with cellular user equipments (CUEs), D2D communications can significantly enhance the overall spectral efficiency. However, the resulting mutual interference may cancel or even outweigh the...
Cloud computing gets more and more popular because of its abilities on offering flexible dynamic IT infrastructure, QoS (Quality of Service) guaranteed computing environments and configurable software services. Cloud computing supports three service models: SaaS (Software as a Service), PaaS (Platform as a Service), and IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service). PaaS provides users with an application development...
Wireless sensor network is composed by wireless sensor nodes, which have capabilities of perception, computing and communication. Network coverage is the main support technology in wireless sensor network application; it can achieve the physical information perception of the target region and the target object through the spatial distribution of sensor nodes in the network. Network coverage fundamentally...
