Cloud Data Center (DC) service orchestration and resource management are important applications of the Software Defined Networking (SDN) paradigm. In this paper, we introduce a novel dynamic allocation strategy for Virtual Machine (VM) allocation called Enhanced multi-objective Worst Fit (E-WF). E-WF combines the multi-objective Best Fit and Worst Fit allocation strategies, and it exploits the history...
In this paper, a near Optimum Power Allocation (OPA) for a cooperative jamming relay network is proposed, by using physical layer security to protect the user's messages from relay's interception. The network uses Amplify and Forward (AF) relay to enlarge the coverage area, however the relay is untrusted. By defining secure Energy Efficiency (EE) as the ratio of the instantaneous secrecy rate to the...
Current Distributed Radio Access Networks (DRANs), which are characterized by a static configuration and deployment of Base Stations (BSs), have exposed their limitations in handling the temporal and geographical fluctuations of capacity demands. At the same time, each BS's spectrum and computing resources are only used by the active users in the cell range, causing idle BSs in some areas/times and...
The key to maintaining high standards of quality and power conservation of physical machines in data centers lies in efficient consolidation of virtual machines (VMs). Several schemes have been proposed for this purpose; and these include online migration and VM placement — which can offer the best in terms of resource utilization. The consolidation process can be made effective by finding “opportunities”...
To satisfy various quality-of-service (QoS) requirements of different services in future fifth generation wireless networks, wireless virtualized network (WVN) architectures have been proposed to concurrently fulfill diversified service demands via network slicing technologies. Considering the dynamic characteristics of wireless channels and user traffic, the resource allocation problem in a WVN with...
In this paper, we study the energy-efficient user access control (UAC) based on resource allocation (RA) in heterogeneous cellular networks (HCNs) with the required downlink data rate under non-ideal power amplifiers (PAs) and circuit power. It is proved that the energy consumption minimization is achieved when the typical user accesses only one base station (BS), while the other BSs remain in idle...
In this paper, the throughput maximization problem is investigated for a block fading buffer-aided relay channel. The decode-and-forward (DF) relaying scheme is adopted, and the buffers at the relay can temporarily store the data received from the source. Considering the non-ideal circuit power, one of three transmission modes (source transmission, relay transmission, and keeping silence) is selected...

This study, focus on minimizing the migration of Virtual Machine to produce lowest power consumption. To achieve this objective, a new algorithm is used to calculate on the fly the Lower and Upper Threshold Limit using Statistical Process Control theory. This new algorithm...
The future 5G networks need to support different kinds of business and applications, so the cloud radio access networks (C-RAN) which can provide a centralized collaborative resource management gain through small base stations, and seamless handoff also can be achieved through the overlapping deployment of macro base stations and micro base stations has become one of the important directions in 5G...
Cloud computing providers must support requests for resources in dynamic environments, considering service elasticity and overbooking of physical resources. Due to the randomness of requests, Virtual Machine Placement (VMP) problems should be formulated under uncertainty. In this context, a renewed formulation of the VMP problem is presented, considering the optimization of four objective functions:...
The green-house effect has been a major concern for all researchers and big company world-wide. This study reduces the power consumption of single server without degrading the quality of the service by focusing on minimizing the migration of Virtual Machine. Existing migration system for Virtual Machine does not perform well for kinds of load toward single server. Thus, a new algorithm is calculated...
Placement of Virtual Machines (VMs) on physical servers is a challenging area of research and has received considerable interest among researchers in the field of Cloud Computing.

We have proposed a polynomial time heuristic to place VMs satisfying the constraints with the...
Network virtualization is a promising solution to overcome the resistance to architectural changes in Internet, and virtual network embedding (VNE) is a remarkable challenge. Virtualization makes possible resource sharing as an effective energy saving technology, but few works consider energy consumption in the mapping. In addition, important QoS metrics, such as availability, are usually neglected...
Large scale adoption of renewable energy becomes available along with the development of new technologies. However, the randomness and volatility of the renewable energy bring instability to the operation of distribution network. A higher standard of planning and scheduling of the distribution network is called for along with the increasing load of the distribution network and the increasing spread...
LTE-M, which is an abbreviated version of LTE-MTC(Machine Type Communication) can be said to have a variety of applications, including a large number of heterogeneous interconnection of large-scale network equipment. One of the most prominent problems is that the machines may have a large amount of access requests in a short time, which can easily lead to network congestion. At present, the contention-based...
Cloud Radio Access Network (C-RAN) enhances the utilization of computing and radio resources by concentrating Baseband Unit (BBU) at a data center. It is essential to find a flexible way to manage the computing resource since processing power has become the majority of system power in C-RAN. The computing resource demand of users can be scaled according to the modulation bits and other parameters...
Effective Capacity (EC) indicates the maximum communication rate subject to a certain delay constraint while effective energy efficiency (EEE) denotes the ratio between EC and power consumption.

We obtain a closed form approximation for the EEE in Rayleigh block fading channels as a function of...
Cloud Radio Access Network (C-RAN) is a promising technology to improve user quality of service and reduce network capital and operating costs. The key concept behind C-RAN is to break down the conventional base station into a Base Band Unit (BBU) and a Remote Radio Head (RRH), and to pool BBUs from multiple sites into a single geographical point. Moreover, to achieve statistical multiplexing gain,...
The problem of efficient resource management in large cloud data centres is well recognised in the cloud management community. With the rising demand for cloud services and expansion of the size and distribution of data centres, the repercussions of not taking into account all parameters of interest while allocating resources are becoming significant.
