Microservices are used to build complex applications composed of small, independent and highly decoupled processes. Recently, microservices are often mentioned in one breath with container technologies like Docker. That is why operating…
In modern cloud and heterogeneous distributed infrastructures, container images are widely used as the deployment unit for machine learning applications. An image bundles the application with its entire platform-specific execution…
Rosetta is a science platform for resource-intensive, interactive data analysis which runs user tasks as software containers. It is built on top of a novel architecture based on framing user tasks as microservices - independent and…
Lightweight containers provide an efficient approach for deploying computation-intensive applications in network edge. The layered storage structure of container images can further reduce the deployment cost and container startup time.…
In an increasingly automated world -- from warehouse robots to self-driving cars -- streamlining the development and deployment process and operations of robotic applications becomes ever more important. Automated DevOps processes and…
Establishing a docker-based replicability infrastructure offers the community a great opportunity: measuring the run time of information retrieval systems. The time required to present query results to a user is paramount to the users…
Containers are standalone, self-contained units that package software and its dependencies together. They offer lightweight performance isolation, fast and flexible deployment, and fine-grained resource sharing. They have gained popularity…
We introduce Stream Containers inspired by the Linked Data Platform as an alternative way to process RDF streams. A Stream Container represents a single RDF data stream that can be accessed in a resource-oriented way which allows for better…
Although a standard in natural science, reproducibility has been only episodically applied in experimental computer science. Scientific papers often present a large number of tables, plots and pictures that summarize the obtained results,…
In modern cloud-based architectures, containers play a central role: they provide powerful isolation mechanisms such that developers can focus on the logic and dependencies of applications while system administrators can focus on deployment…
The best way to train people about security is through Cyber Ranges, i.e., the virtual platform used by cyber-security experts to learn new skills and attack vectors. In order to realize such virtual scenarios, container-based…
Container technique is gaining increasing attention in recent years and has become an alternative to traditional virtual machines. Some of the primary motivations for the enterprise to adopt the container technology include its convenience…
Science reproducibility is a cornerstone feature in scientific workflows. In most cases, this has been implemented as a way to exactly reproduce the computational steps taken to reach the final results. While these steps are often…
Research is an incremental, iterative process, with new results relying and building upon previous ones. Scientists need to find, retrieve, understand, and verify results in order to confidently extend them, even when the results are their…
The increasing availability of cloud computing services for science has changed the way scientific code can be developed, deployed, and run. Many modern scientific workflows are capable of running on cloud computing resources. Consequently,…
The HPC community is actively researching and evaluating tools to support execution of scientific applications in cloud-based environments. Among the various technologies, containers have recently gained importance as they have…
Computational reproducibility is fundamental to scientific research, yet many published code supplements lack the necessary documentation to recreate their computational environments. While researchers increasingly share code alongside…
Linux Containers, such as those managed by Docker, are an increasingly popular way to package and deploy complex applications. However, the fundamental security primitive of network access control for a distributed microservice deployment…
In this paper we investigate the problem of simultaneously allocating orders and mobile storage racks to static pickers. Here storage racks are allocated to pickers to enable them to pick all of the products for the orders that have been…
