Cloud Computing is a new trend emerging in IT environment with huge requirements of infrastructure and resources. Load Balancing is an important aspect of cloud computing environment. Efficient load balancing scheme ensures efficient…
Cloud computing has motivated renewed interest in resource allocation problems with new consumption models. A common goal is to share a resource, such as CPU or I/O bandwidth, among distinct users with different demand patterns as well as…
Cloud providers have introduced pricing models to incentivize long-term commitments of compute capacity. These long-term commitments allow the cloud providers to get guaranteed revenue for their investments in data centers and computing…
Cloud computing is a new paradigm where data and services of Information Technology are provided via the Internet by using remote servers. It represents a new way of delivering computing resources allowing access to the network on demand.…
We study the scheduling polices for asymptotically optimal delay in queueing systems with switching overhead. Such systems consist of a single server that serves multiple queues, and some capacity is lost whenever the server switches to…
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…
This paper studies the problem of utility maximization for clients with delay based QoS requirements in wireless networks. We adopt a model used in a previous work that characterizes the QoS requirements of clients by their delay…
Cloud Computing (CC) serves to be a key driver for fulfilling the store and compute requirements of a modern Smart Grid (SG). However, since the datacenters are deployed in concentrated and far remote areas, it fails to guarantee the…
Modern latency-critical online services often rely on composing results from a large number of server components. Hence the tail latency (e.g. the 99th percentile of response time), rather than the average, of these components determines…
Small-scale clouds (SCs) often suffer from resource under-provisioning during peak demand, leading to inability to satisfy service level agreements (SLAs) and consequent loss of customers. One approach to address this problem is for a set…
Model cascades, in which a cheap LLM defers to an expensive one on low-confidence queries, are widely used to navigate the cost-quality tradeoff at deployment. Existing approaches largely treat the deferral threshold as an empirical…
With the increasing importance of distributed scientific workflows, there is a critical need to ensure Quality of Service (QoS) constraints, such as minimizing time or limiting execution to resource subsets. However, the unpredictable…
Cloud computing facilitates the access of applications and data from any location by a distributed storage system. Erasure codes offer better data replication technique with reduced storage costs for more reliability. This paper considers…
Service-Oriented Computing (SOC) enables the composition of loosely coupled service agents provided with varying Quality of Service (QoS) levels, effectively forming a multiagent system (MAS). Selecting a (near-)optimal set of services for…
One key requirement for storage clouds is to be able to retrieve data quickly. Recent system measurements have shown that the data retrieving delay in storage clouds is highly variable, which may result in a long latency tail. One crucial…
Serverless computing systems are becoming very popular. Large corporations such as Netflix, Airbnb, and Coca-Cola use such systems for running their websites and IT systems. The advantages of such systems include superior support for…
Operating cloud service infrastructures requires high energy efficiency while ensuring a satisfactory service level. Motivated by data centers, we consider a workload routing and server speed control policy applicable to the system…
Quality of service (QoS) provisioning in next-generation mobile communications systems entails a deep understanding of the delay performance. The delay in wireless networks is strongly affected by the traffic arrival process and the service…
Maximizing resource utilization by performing an efficient resource provisioning is a key factor for any cloud provider: commercial actors can maximize their revenues, whereas scientific and non-commercial providers can maximize their…
Cloud computing offers on-demand resource access, regulated by Service-Level Agreements (SLAs) between consumers and Cloud Service Providers (CSPs). SLA violations can impact efficiency and CSP profitability. In this work, we propose an…
