Elasticity is one of key features of cloud computing. Elasticity allows Software as a Service (SaaS) applications' provider to reduce cost of running applications. In large SaaS applications that are developed using service-oriented…
In FaaS, users invoke remote functions, which encapsulate service(s). These functions typically need to remotely access a persistent state via external services: this makes the paradigm less attractive in edge systems, especially for IoT…
Efficient resource allocation is one of the critical performance challenges in an Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) cloud. Virtual machine (VM) placement and migration decision making methods are integral parts of these resource allocation…
Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) in Software Defined Networks (SDN) emerged as a new technology for creating virtual instances for smooth execution of multiple applications. Their amalgamation provides flexible and programmable…
In a world, where complexity increases on a daily basis the Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) cloud model seams to take countermeasures. In comparison to other cloud models, the fast evolving FaaS increasingly abstracts the underlying…
Service Function Chain (SFC) provisioning stands as a pivotal technology in the realm of 5G and future networks. Its essence lies in orchestrating VNFs (Virtual Network Functions) in a specified sequence for different types of SFC requests.…
Aggregated HPC resources have rigid allocation systems and programming models which struggle to adapt to diverse and changing workloads. Consequently, HPC systems fail to efficiently use the large pools of unused memory and increase the…
With the exponential growth of the amount of data available on the Internet, optimizing the response time and resource usage for data access becomes essential. Caches are an effective solution that brings data closer to clients, eliminating…
Running microbenchmark suites often and early in the development process enables developers to identify performance issues in their application. Microbenchmark suites of complex applications can comprise hundreds of individual benchmarks…
Plug-and-play information technology (IT) infrastructure has been expanding very rapidly in recent years. With the advent of cloud computing, many ecosystem and business paradigms are encountering potential changes and may be able to…
Cloud service provider propose services to insensitive customers to use their platform. Different services can achieve the same result at different cost. In this paper, we study the efficiency of a serverless architecture for running highly…
Serverless computing offers a pay-per-use model with high elasticity and automatic scaling for a wide range of applications. Since cloud providers abstract most of the underlying infrastructure, these services work similarly to black-boxes.…
Serverless computing, or Function-as-a-Service (FaaS), enables a new way of building and scaling applications by allowing users to deploy fine-grained functions while providing fully-managed resource provisioning and auto-scaling. Custom…
Deploying applications across the computing continuum requires selecting infrastructure nodes from geographically distributed and heterogeneous environments while satisfying constraints (e.g., performance, location). This decision problem…
This paper proposes an architectural framework for the efficient orchestration of containers in cloud environments. It centres around resource scheduling and rescheduling policies as well as autoscaling algorithms that enable the creation…
Rapid adoption of the serverless (or Function-as-a-Service, FaaS) paradigm, pioneered by Amazon with AWS Lambda and followed by numerous commercial offerings and open source projects, introduces new challenges in designing the cloud…
Network virtualization and softwarizing network functions are trends aiming at higher network efficiency, cost reduction and agility. They are driven by the evolution in Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Function Virtualization…
IaaS clouds invest substantial capital in operating their data centers. Reducing the cost of resource provisioning, is their forever pursuing goal. Computing resource trading among multiple IaaS clouds provide a potential for IaaS clouds to…
With the recent trend of "network softwarisation", enabled by emerging technologies such as Software-Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Function Virtualisation (NFV), system administrators of data centres and enterprise networks have…
With the constant demand for connectivity at an all-time high, Network Service Providers (NSPs) are required to optimize their networks to cope with rising capital and operational expenditures required to meet the growing connectivity…
