Service Oriented Architectures (SOAs) are component-based architectures, characterized by reusability, modularization and composition, usually offered by HTTP (web services) and often equipped with a Quality of Services (QoS) measure. In…
The exponential growth of Internet of Things (IoT) has given rise to a new wave of edge computing due to the need to process data on the edge, closer to where it is being produced and attempting to move away from a cloud-centric…
Distributed Stream Processing frameworks are being commonly used with the evolution of Internet of Things(IoT). These frameworks are designed to adapt to the dynamic input message rate by scaling in/out.Apache Storm, originally developed by…
We consider energy minimization for data-intensive applications run on large number of servers, for given performance guarantees. We consider a system, where each incoming application is sent to a set of servers, and is considered to be…
Analytical performance models are very effective in ensuring the quality of service and cost of service deployment remain desirable under different conditions and workloads. While various analytical performance models have been proposed for…
Peer-to-peer (P2P) Data-sharing systems now generate a significant portion of internet traffic. P2P systems have emerged as a popular way to share huge volumes of data. Requirements for widely distributed information systems supporting…
The Advent of the Internet-of-Things (IoT) paradigm has brought opportunities to solve many real-world problems. Energy management, for example, has attracted huge interest from academia, industries, governments and regulatory bodies. It…
Nowadays, application of Service Oriented Architecture is increasing rapidly; especially since introduction of distributed electronic services on the web. SOA software has a modular manner and works as a collaboration of independent…
Serverless computing has emerged as a promising alternative to infrastructure- (IaaS) and platform-as-a-service (PaaS)cloud platforms for applications with ample parallelism and intermittent activity. Serverless promises greater resource…
Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) has recently emerged to reduce the deployment cost of running cloud applications compared to Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS). FaaS follows a serverless 'pay-as-you-go' computing model; it comes at a higher…
Serverless query processing has become increasingly popular due to its auto-scaling, high elasticity, and pay-as-you-go pricing. It allows cloud data warehouse (or lakehouse) users to focus on data analysis without the burden of managing…
Volunteer Computing, sometimes called Public Resource Computing, is an emerging computational model that is very suitable for work-pooled parallel processing. As more complex grid applications make use of work flows in their design and…
Autonomous driving system progress has been driven by improvements in machine learning models, whose computational demands now exceed what edge devices alone can provide. The cloud offers abundant compute, but the network has long been…
Today, driverless cars, as a new technology that allows a more accessible, dynamic and intelligent form of Shared Mobility, are expected to revolutionize urban transportation. One of the conceivable mobility services based on driverless…
In this work, we investigate an online service management problem in vehicular edge computing networks. To satisfy the varying service demands of mobile vehicles, a service management framework is required to make decisions on the service…
Energy consumption represents a significant cost in data center operation. A large fraction of the energy, however, is used to power idle servers when the workload is low. Dynamic provisioning techniques aim at saving this portion of the…
A distributed application executing on a Network of Workstations (NOW) needs to be resource state aware to possibly adapt itself accordingly in order to keep satisfying the desired Quality of Service (QoS) demands throughout its lifespan.…
The implementation, deployment and testing of secure services for Internet of Things devices is nowadays still at an early stage. Several frameworks have recently emerged to help developers realize such services, abstracting the complexity…
Microservices architecture has started a new trend for application development for a number of reasons: (1) to reduce complexity by using tiny services; (2) to scale, remove and deploy parts of the system easily; (3) to improve flexibility…
Cloud-based serverless computing systems, either public or privately provisioned, aim to provide the illusion of infinite resources and abstract users from details of the allocation decisions. With the goal of providing a low cost and a…
