As more and more information systems are moving to the cloud, there have been efforts to deploy publish-subscribe (or pub/sub) systems in the cloud environment to take advantage of the elasticity of resources. As a result, there is a need to perform resource management for the cloud-based pub/sub systems that support various types of jobs, each consists of a series of tasks, or a workflow. Designing...
In the today Internet of Services, one of the challenges of Application Service Providers (ASPs) is to fulfill the QoS requirements stated in the Service Level Agreements (SLAs) established with different consumers and to minimize the investment and management costs. Cloud computing is the promising solution for ASPs that increasingly demand for an elastic infrastructure. In this paper, we formulate...
In PaaS, the issue of resource provisioning becomes more challenging because a great number of applications share and compete for resources simultaneously. PaaS platform should be able to maximize the resources utilization, while satisfying the performance requirements of all applications. However on-line request workload can be fluctuated during the run time of applications and static resource allocation...
Managing workload for large scale web applications is a fundamental task for satisfactory quality of service, low management and operation cost. In this paper, we present SCOPS, a system of distributed workload management to achieve service differentiation and overload protection in such large scale deployment. Our system splits the workload management logic into distributed components on each back-end...
Cloud platforms host several independent applications on a shared resource pool with the ability to allocate computing power to applications on a per-demand basis. The use of server virtualization techniques for such platforms provide great flexibility with the ability to consolidate several virtual machines on the same physical server, to resize a virtual machine capacity and to migrate virtual machine...
Workflows are widely used in applications that require coordinated use of computational resources. Workflow definition languages typically abstract over some aspects of the way in which a workflow is to be executed, such as the level of parallelism to be used or the physical resources to be deployed. As a result, a workflow management system has responsibility for establishing how best to map tasks...
This is an introduction to the proceedings of the MWS 2007 workshop held at EDOC 2007. It first explains the motivation for and background of the workshop. Then, it contains a short description of the keynote, each long and short peer-reviewed paper, and the discussion session "impact of various execution environments on middleware for web services". After the closing statements, MWS 2007...
