Container-based Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) systems are rapidly emerging as a dominate cloud deployment paradigm, as supported via Docker, etc. This has opened new research avenues as lighter-weight containers replace heavier-weight virtual machines (VMs) as atomic cloud deployment units. Advancing such research requires sufficiently rich, container-aware cloud simulation frameworks so as to explore...
In this paper, we integrate Hadoop onto IaaS cloud platform and propose a new Dynamic Hadoop Cluster on IaaS (DHCI) architecture. In DHCI architecture, three key modules are designed, they are monitoring module, virtual machine management module and scheduling module. The load information of both physical hosts and virtual machines are collected by the monitoring module, and can be used for designing...
Cloud computing has experienced enormous popularity and adoption in many areas, such as research, medical, web, and e-commerce. Providers, like Amazon, Google, Microsoft, and Yahoo have deployed their cloud services for use. Cloud computing pay-as-you-go model, on demand scaling, and low maintenance cost has attracted many users. The widespread adoption of cloud paradigm upshots various challenges...
Dynamic nature of distributed architecture is a major challenge to avail the benefits of distributed computing. An effective solution to deal with this dynamic nature is to implement a self-adaptive mechanism to sustain the distributed architecture. Self-adaptive systems can autonomously modify their behavior at run-time in response to changes in their environment. This capability may be included...
Cloud computing will be a major technology in the development of the future Internet of Services. Service providers want to remove the bottle neck of the cloud computing system in order to satisfy user requirement. And in order to save energy consumption they also need to apply new energy-efficiency mechanism and observe its effects on a data center. As it is difficult to test new mechanism in real...
Abstract -- The Cloud computing is a rapidly emerging distributed system paradigm that offers a huge amount of IT resources as utility services at a reduced cost and flexible schemes. The key of such flexibility is an efficient load balancer that offers better management and utilization of virtualized underlying cloud infrastructures. However, most of the existing load balancers in cloud computing...
Cloud computing is becoming increasingly popular for the provisioning of computing resources, in particular, through scientific tools that perform modeling or simulations. Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks (VANETs) are mobile ad hoc networks which are meant to support primarily safety warnings and to manage challenging conditions to improve our transportation experience. This is a challenging context where...
A cloud computing environment consists of a huge number of processors and memories, high-speed networks, and various application services to provide a lot of service over the Internet for users. However, there are two critical problems in the Internet service provider¡¦s (ISP): unfair and unbalanced problems produced by dispatching tasks without considering the character and the workload of servers...
In this tutorial paper, we will firstly review some basic simulation concepts and then introduce the parallel and distributed simulation techniques in view of some new challenges of today and tomorrow. More in particular, in the last years there has been a wide diffusion of many cores architectures and we can expect this trend to continue. On the other hand, the success of cloud computing is strongly...
Education training and experimentation networks (ETEN) are an important application area for the cloud computing concept. An ETEN is an infrastructure that consists of advanced distributed learning, collaborative working and distributed simulation systems, and can be designed as an intercloud of many global and private clouds. Intercloud approach introduces new opportunities to improve the performance...
