Book Decentralized Multi Resource Allocation in Clouds

Download or read book Decentralized Multi Resource Allocation in Clouds written by Patrick Poullie and published by . This book was released on 2017-11-15 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cloud computing is omnipresent nowadays, as it allows for a fine-grained partitioning of data center resources and for flexibly providing access to these resources. This partitioning and provisioning is achieved by hosting several Virtual Machines (VM) on the same physical machine. In contrast to commercial clouds, the performance of VMs in a private cloud is not captured by Service Level Agreements, and thus, all VMs are treated as processes of equal importance. As users operate different numbers of VMs and these VMs utilize different amounts of physical resources, this equal treatment of VMs leads to users receiving unequal amounts of physical resources. This thesis improves this situation by defining an efficient approach to enforce fairness in private clouds.This thesis shows that cloud resources are best controlled by changing priorities of VMs to access physical resources of their host and that no assumptions on utility functions can be made during this step. The premiss of this thesis that it is fair to constrain greedy users in favor of less greedy users requires a metric that quantifies the greediness of users based on their multi-resource self-servings from a shared resource pool. Thus, the Greediness Metric is developed based on a questionnaire among more than 600 participants on the intuitive understanding of greediness and fairness. The Greediness Metric is refined to define cloud fairness in a way that outperforms all existing cloud fairness definitions. To demonstrate the practical applicability of this cloud fairness definition, OpenStack is extended by an according service. The processing overhead of this service is evaluated and it is proven that it enforces fairness among users by coordinating the VM prioritization on hosts.

Book Decentralized Systems and Distributed Computing

Download or read book Decentralized Systems and Distributed Computing written by Sandhya Avasthi and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2024-07-31 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive exploration of next-generation internet, distributed systems, and distributed computing, offering valuable insights into their impact on society and the future of technology. The use of distributed systems is a big step forward in IT and computer science. As the number of tasks that depend on each other grows, a single machine can no longer handle all of them. Distributed computing is better than traditional computer settings in several ways. Distributed systems reduce the risks of a single point of failure, making them more reliable and able to handle mistakes. Most modern distributed systems are made to be scalable, which means that processing power can be added on the fly to improve performance. The internet of the future is meant to give us freedom and choices, encourage diversity and decentralization, and make it easier for people to be creative and do research. By making the internet more three-dimensional and immersive, the metaverse could introduce more ways to use it. Some people have expressed negative things about the metaverse, and there is much uncertainty regarding its future. Analysts in the field have pondered if the metaverse will differ much from our current digital experiences, and if so, whether people will be willing to spend hours per day exploring virtual space while wearing a headset. This book will look at the different aspects of the next-generation internet, distributed systems, distributed computing, and their effects on society as a whole.

Book Privacy Preserving in Edge Computing

Download or read book Privacy Preserving in Edge Computing written by Longxiang Gao and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-06-01 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the rapid development of big data, it is necessary to transfer the massive data generated by end devices to the cloud under the traditional cloud computing model. However, the delays caused by massive data transmission no longer meet the requirements of various real-time mobile services. Therefore, the emergence of edge computing has been recently developed as a new computing paradigm that can collect and process data at the edge of the network, which brings significant convenience to solving problems such as delay, bandwidth, and off-loading in the traditional cloud computing paradigm. By extending the functions of the cloud to the edge of the network, edge computing provides effective data access control, computation, processing and storage for end devices. Furthermore, edge computing optimizes the seamless connection from the cloud to devices, which is considered the foundation for realizing the interconnection of everything. However, due to the open features of edge computing, such as content awareness, real-time computing and parallel processing, the existing problems of privacy in the edge computing environment have become more prominent. The access to multiple categories and large numbers of devices in edge computing also creates new privacy issues. In this book, we discuss on the research background and current research process of privacy protection in edge computing. In the first chapter, the state-of-the-art research of edge computing are reviewed. The second chapter discusses the data privacy issue and attack models in edge computing. Three categories of privacy preserving schemes will be further introduced in the following chapters. Chapter three introduces the context-aware privacy preserving scheme. Chapter four further introduces a location-aware differential privacy preserving scheme. Chapter five presents a new blockchain based decentralized privacy preserving in edge computing. Chapter six summarize this monograph and propose future research directions. In summary, this book introduces the following techniques in edge computing: 1) describe an MDP-based privacy-preserving model to solve context-aware data privacy in the hierarchical edge computing paradigm; 2) describe a SDN based clustering methods to solve the location-aware privacy problems in edge computing; 3) describe a novel blockchain based decentralized privacy-preserving scheme in edge computing. These techniques enable the rapid development of privacy-preserving in edge computing.

Book Centralized and Decentralized Methods of Efficient Resource Allocation in Cloud Computing

Download or read book Centralized and Decentralized Methods of Efficient Resource Allocation in Cloud Computing written by Su Seon Yang and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Resource allocation in cloud computing determines the allocation of computer and network resources of service providers to service requests of cloud users for meeting the cloud users' service requirements. The efficient and effective resource allocation determines the success of cloud computing. However, it is challenging to satisfy objectives of all service providers and all cloud users in an unpredictable environment with dynamic workload, large shared resources and complex policies to manage them. Many studies propose to use centralized algorithms for achieving optimal solutions for resource allocation. However, the centralized algorithms may encounter the scalability problem to handle a large number of service requests in a realistically satisfactory time. Hence, this dissertation presents two studies. One study develops and tests heuristics of centralized resource allocation to produce near-optimal solutions in a scalable manner. Another study looks into decentralized methods of performing resource allocation. The first part of this dissertation defines the resource allocation problem as a centralized optimization problem in Mixed Integer Programming (MIP) and obtains the optimal solutions for various resource-service problem scenarios. Based on the analysis of the optimal solutions, various heuristics are designed for efficient resource allocation. Extended experiments are conducted with larger numbers of user requests and service providers for performance evaluation of the resource allocation heuristics. Experimental results of the resource allocation heuristics show the comparable performance of the heuristics to the optimal solutions from solving the optimization problem. Moreover, the resource allocation heuristics demonstrate better computational efficiency and thus scalability than solving the optimization problem.The second part of this dissertation looks into elements of service provider-user coordination first in the formulation of the centralized resource allocation problem in MIP and then in the formulation of the optimization problem in a decentralized manner for various problem cases. By examining differences between the centralized, optimal solutions and the decentralized solutions for those problem cases, the analysis of how the decentralized service provider-user coordination breaks down the optimal solutions is performed. Based on the analysis, strategies of decentralized service provider-user coordination are developed.
