Edge computing addresses critical limitations of cloud computing such as high latency and network congestion by decentralizing processing from cloud to the edge. However, the need for software replication across heterogeneous edge devices…

Virtualization has gained astonishing popularity in recent decades. It is applied in several application domains, including mainframes, personal computers, data centers, and embedded systems. While the benefits of virtualization are no…

Containerization technology offers lightweight OS-level virtualization, and enables portability, reproducibility, and flexibility by packing applications with low performance overhead and low effort to maintain and scale them. Moreover,…

Virtual machine (VM) placement is very important for cloud platforms. While techniques, such as live virtual machine migration, are very useful to balance the load in the data centers, they are expensive operations. In this position paper,…

Understanding inter-VM interference is of paramount importance to provide a sound knowledge and understand where performance degradation comes from in the current public cloud. With this aim, this paper devises a workload taxonomy that…

The concept of Network Function Virtualization (NFV) has been introduced as a new paradigm in the recent few years. NFV offers a number of benefits including significantly increased maintainability and reduced deployment overhead. Several…

The cloud computing paradigm underlines data center and telecommunication infrastructure design. Heavily leveraging virtualization, it slices hardware and software resources into smaller software units for greater flexibility of…

We present a comparative analysis of the maximum performance achieved by the Linpack benchmark on compute intensive hardware publicly available from multiple cloud providers. We study both performance within a single compute node, and…

CPU is undoubtedly the most important resource of the computer system. Recent advances in software and system architecture have increased processing complexity, as computing is now distributed and parallel. CloudSim represents the…

New dynamic cloud pricing options are emerging with cloud providers offering resources as a wide range of CPU frequencies and matching prices that can be switched at runtime. On the other hand, cloud providers are facing the problem of…

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…

There is an increasing demand to incorporate hybrid environments as part of workflows across edge, cloud, and HPC systems. In a such converging environment of cloud and HPC, containers are starting to play a more prominent role, bringing…

Containers offer an array of advantages that benefit research reproducibility and portability across groups and systems. As container tools mature, container security improves, and High-performance computing (HPC) and cloud system tools…

In cloud computing resource management plays a significant role in data centres and it is directly dependent on the application workload. Various services such as Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and…

Most existing studies on performance prediction for virtual machines (VMs) in multi-tenant clouds are at system level and generally require access to performance counters in Hypervisors. In this work, we propose uPredict, a user-level…

A key challenge for supporting elastic behaviour in cloud systems is to achieve a good performance in automated (de-)provisioning and scheduling of computing resources. One of the key aspects that can be significant is the overheads…

Current computational systems are heterogeneous by nature, featuring a combination of CPUs and GPUs. As the latter are becoming an established platform for high-performance computing, the focus is shifting towards the seamless programming…

Virtualization is a framework of dividing the resources of a computer into multiple execution environments which offers a lot of benefits including flexibility, security, ease to configuration and reduction of cost but at the same time it…

The rapid evolution of embedded systems, along with the growing variety and complexity of AI algorithms, necessitates a powerful hardware/software co-design methodology based on virtual prototyping technologies. The market offers a diverse…

Deep learning based recommendation systems form the backbone of most personalized cloud services. Though the computer architecture community has recently started to take notice of deep recommendation inference, the resulting solutions have…
