It is important that the wireless network is well optimized and planned, using the limited wireless spectrum resources, to serve the explosively growing traffic and diverse applications needs of end users. Considering the challenges of…
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…
Serverless computing shows good promise for efficiency and ease-of-use. Yet, there are only a few, scattered and sometimes conflicting reports on questions such as 'Why do so many companies adopt serverless?', 'When are serverless…
Serverless computing has emerged as a new paradigm for running short-lived computations in the cloud. Due to its ability to handle IoT workloads, there has been considerable interest in running serverless functions at the edge. However, the…
Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) is at the core of serverless computing, enabling developers to easily deploy applications without managing computing resources. With an Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) approach, frameworks like the Serverless…
Serverless computing is increasingly being used for parallel computing, which have traditionally been implemented as stateful applications. Executing complex, burst-parallel, directed acyclic graph (DAG) jobs poses a major challenge for…
Recently, serverless computing has gained recognition as a leading cloud computing method. Providing a solution that does not require direct server and infrastructure management, this technology has addressed many traditional model problems…
The rising complexity and scale of agent-based models (ABMs) necessitate efficient computational strategies to manage the increasing demand for processing power and memory. This manuscript provides a comprehensive guide to optimizing…
The advent of serverless computing has revolutionized the landscape of cloud computing, offering a new paradigm that enables developers to focus solely on their applications rather than managing and provisioning the underlying…
Along with the wide-adoption of Serverless Computing, more and more applications are developed and deployed on cloud platforms. Major cloud providers present their serverless workflow services to orchestrate serverless functions, making it…
The need for Linux system administrators to do performance management has returned with a vengeance. Why? The cloud. Resource consumption in the cloud is all about pay-as-you-go. This article shows you how performance models can find the…
Serverless execution and most notably the Function as a Service (FaaS) model got quite some attention during the recent years. As of today, all commercial and open source implementations follow the common practice of keeping the execution…
Serverless Computing is a virtualisation-related paradigm that promises to simplify application management and to solve the last challenges in the field: scale down and easy to use. The implied cost reduction, coupled with a simplified…
Serverless computing has become a major trend among cloud providers. With serverless computing, developers fully delegate the task of managing the servers, dynamically allocating the required resources, as well as handling availability and…
Experiment-in-the-Loop Computing (EILC) requires support for numerous types of processing and the management of heterogeneous infrastructure over a dynamic range of scales: from the edge to the cloud and HPC, and intermediate resources.…
Current proprietary and open-source serverless platforms follow opinionated, hardcoded scheduling policies to deploy the functions to be executed over the available workers. Such policies may decrease the performance and the security of the…
Serverless computing is an emerging service model in distributed computing systems. The term captures cloud-based event-driven distributed application design and stems from its completely resource-transparent deployment model, i.e.…
The appeal of serverless (FaaS) has triggered a growing interest on how to use it in data-intensive applications such as ETL, query processing, or machine learning (ML). Several systems exist for training large-scale ML models on top of…
Serverless computing abstracts away server management, enabling automatic scaling, efficient resource utilization, and cost-effective pricing models. However, despite these advantages, it faces the significant challenge of cold-start…
AWS Lambda is a serverless event-driven compute service, part of a category of cloud compute offerings sometimes called Function-as-a-service (FaaS). When we first released AWS Lambda, functions were limited to 250MB of code and…
