In recent years with the advent of high bandwidth internet access availability, the cloud computing applications have boomed. With more and more applications being run over the cloud and an increase in the overall user base of the different…
Cloud resource management is often modeled by two-dimensional bin packing with a set of items that correspond to tasks having fixed CPU and memory requirements. However, applications running in clouds are much more flexible: modern…
Load balancing plays a critical role in efficiently dispatching jobs in parallel-server systems such as cloud networks and data centers. A fundamental challenge in the design of load balancing algorithms is to achieve an optimal trade-off…
This paper describes the possibility of applying a generic, cloud-based Optimisation as a Service facility to food cooking planning and scheduling in a commercial kitchen. We propose a chromosome encoding and customisation of the classic…
Cloud computing providers have setup several data centers at different geographical locations over the Internet in order to optimally serve needs of their customers around the world. However, existing systems do not support mechanisms and…
In cloud computing management, the dynamic adaptation of computing resource allocations under time-varying workload is an active domain of investigation. Several control strategies were already proposed. Here the model-free control setting…
In this method, service of one load balancer can be borrowed or shared among other load balancers when any correction is needed in the estimation of the load.
The emerging computing continuum paves the way for exploiting multiple computing devices, ranging from the edge to the cloud, to implement the control algorithm. Different computing units over the continuum are characterized by different…
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…
Containerisation demonstrates its efficiency in application deployment in cloud computing. Containers can encapsulate complex programs with their dependencies in isolated environments, hence are being adopted in HPC clusters. HPC workload…
Job scheduling in cloud computing environments is a critical yet complex problem. Cloud computing user job requirements are highly dynamic and uncertain, while cloud computing resources are heterogeneous and constrained. This paper studies…
Computation offloading is often used in mobile cloud, edge, and/or fog computing to cope with resource limitations of mobile devices in terms of computational power, storage, and energy. Computation offloading is particularly challenging in…
The core of the computer business now offers subscription-based on-demand services with the help of cloud computing. We may now share resources among multiple users by using virtualization, which creates a virtual instance of a computer…
Manufacturing of products, nowadays, due to the advances in Information Technologies (IT) that turn products into smart devices, and the evolution in device connectivity, becomes increasingly complex. Connected product networks (CPN) and…
In this article we look at the potential of cloud containers and we provide some guidelines for companies and organisations that are starting to look at how to migrate their legacy infrastructure to something modern, reliable and scalable.…
Scheduling is essentially a decision-making process that enables resource sharing among a number of activities by determining their execution order on the set of available resources. The emergence of distributed systems brought new…
We present a case study on the strategic planning of a security operations center in a typical, modern, mid-size organization. Against the backdrop of the company's multi-cloud strategy a distributed approach envisioning the involvement of…
Spacecraft increasingly rely on heterogeneous computing resources spanning onboard flight computers, orbital data centers, ground station edge nodes, and terrestrial cloud infrastructure. Selecting where a workload should execute is a…
As more and more service providers choose Cloud platforms, which is provided by third party resource providers, resource providers needs to provision resources for heterogeneous workloads in different Cloud scenarios. Taking into account…
