Cognitive workload management on globally interoperable network of clouds
A new computing paradigm using Distributed Intelligent Managed Elements (DIME) and DIME Network Architecture (DNA) is used to demonstrate globally interoperable public and private cloud network deploying cloud agnostic workloads. The workloads are ...
Towards autonomous creation of service chains on cloud markets
Today, cloud services, such as virtual machines, are traded directly at fixed prices between consumers and providers on platforms, e.g. Amazon EC2. The recent development of Amazon's EC2 spot market shows that dynamic cloud markets are gaining popularity. ...
Cache replication for information-centric networks through programmable networks
Software-Defined Networking (SDN) is a new approach that decouples control from the data transfer function and can be directly programmable by the programming language. At the same time, Information-Centric Networks (ICNs) influence the search for ...
Improving the MXFT scheduling algorithm for a cloud computing context
In this paper, the Max-Min Fast Track (MXFT) scheduling algorithm is improved and compared against a selection of popular algorithms. The improved versions of MXFT are called Min-Min Max-Min Fast Track (MMMXFT) and Clustering Min-Min Max-Min Fast Track (...

The wide diffusion of cloud services, offering functionalities in different application domains and addressing different computing and storage needs, opens up the possibility of building multi-cloud applications relying upon heterogeneous services, ...
Resource auto-scaling for SQL-like queries in the cloud based on parallel reinforcement learning
Cloud computing is a technology that provides on-demand services in which the number of assigned resources can be automatically adjusted. A key challenge is how to choose the right number of resources so that the overall monetary cost is minimised. This ...
Data analysis of CSI 800 industry index by using factor analysis model
This paper studies the linkages among the industries based on CSI 800 industry index, which provides mass complicated data for industry research. Factor analysis, a useful data analysis tool, allows researchers to investigate concepts that are not easily ...
Don't lose the point, check it: Is your cloud application using the right strategy?

Users pay for running their applications on cloud infrastructure, and in return they expect high availability, and minimal data loss in case of failure. From a cloud provider perspective, any hardware or software failure must be detected and recovered as ...
A cloud-based approach to dynamically manage service contracts for local public transportation
Public contracts regulate how public services are managed by the stakeholders. However, the current technological trend is creating a significant bias between the pace at which service data are produced and that at which contracts change. This increased ...
Towards to virtual infrastructure allocation on multiple IaaS providers with survivability and reliability requirements
- Anderson Schwede Raugust,
- Wilton Jaciel Loch,
- Felipe Rodrigo De Souza,
- Maurício Aronne Pillon,
- Charles Christian Miers,
- Guilherme Piêgas Koslovski
The diversity of services, prices, and geographical footprints has turned the clouds into a complex and heterogeneous environment. Moreover, the survivability and reliability aspects are often disregarded by tenants, eventually resulting in heavy losses ...
