Saleh, Mehdi. "Virtualization and self-organization for utility computing." Master's thesis, University of Central Florida, 2011. http://digital.library.ucf.edu/cdm/ref/collection/ETD/id/5026.

Abstract:

We present an alternative paradigm for utility computing when the delivery of service is subject to binding contracts; the solution we propose is based on resource virtualization and a self-management scheme. A virtual cloud aggregates set virtual machines to work in concert for the tasks specified by the service agreement. A first step for the establishment of a virtual cloud is to create a scale-free overlay network through a biased random walk; scale-free networks enjoy a set of remarkable properties such as: robustness against random failures, favorable scaling, and resilience to congestio

Abstract:

More and more clouds with diversified properties have been built. Many of them span multiple geographical locations over the globe, imposing time-varying costs on and offering different service proximities to users. Clouds could be private or public, requiring different levels of administration effort and providing different levels of freedom to control. Hybrid clouds, which blend together multiple public and private clouds, possess properties of both types. Based on these diversified properties, multiple clouds have the potential to provide services with higher scalability, lower operational

Galaxy shell, a sub component of Galaxy project, is designed and implemented. Galaxy shell is a core component of the Galaxy services, which provides an interface for Galaxy developers or other modules to access certain functions supported by Galaxy system. Through Galaxy shell, developers can search, query, and bind resources according to static or dynamic constraints, launch commands either locally or remotely. Galaxy shell also supports some special functions, such as remote pipeline and multicast remote execution. Galaxy shell not only provides a valuable tool for the research and d

Abstract:

The purpose of the thesis was to propose one set of solutions to some of the challenges that are delaying the adoption of utility computing on a wider scale. These components enable effective deployment of utility computing, efficient look-up, and comparison of service offerings of different utility computing resource centers connected to the utility computing network.

Abstract:

Utility Computing is one of the most discussed business models in the context of Cloud Computing. Service providers are more and more pushed into the role of utilities by their customer's expectations. Subsequently, the demand for predictable service availability and pay-per-use pricing models increases. Furthermore, for providers, a new opportunity to optimise resource usage offers arises, resulting from new virtualisation techniques. In this context, the control of service quality and profit depends on a deep understanding of the representation of the relationship between business and techni

Abstract:

Activity recognition in monitored environments where the occupants are elderly or disabled is currently a popular research topic and is being proposed as a possible solution that may help maintain the independence of an aging population within their homes, where these homes are adapted as monitored environments. Current activity recognition systems implement ubiquitous sensing or video surveillance techniques which inherently, to varying degrees, impinge on the privacy of the occupants of these environments. The research presented in this thesis investigates the use of Ubiquitous sensors withi

Abstract:

Today, heterogeneous computing systems are widely used to meet the increasing demand for high-performance computing. These systems commonly use powerful and energy-efficient accelerators to augment general-purpose processors (i.e., CPUs). The graphic processing unit (GPU) is one such accelerator. Originally designed solely for graphics processing, GPUs have evolved into programmable processors that can deliver massive parallel processing power for general-purpose applications. Using SIMD (Single Instruction Multiple Data) based components as building units; the current GPU architecture is we

Abstract:

This dissertation presents algorithms and mechanisms that enable self-managed, scalable and efficient deployment of large-scale scientific and engineering applications in a highly dynamic and unpredictable distributed environment. Typically these applications are composed of a large number of distributed components and it is important to meet the computational power and network bandwidth requirements of those components and their interactions. However satisfying these requirements in a large-scale, shared, heterogeneous, and highly dynamic distributed environment is a significant challenge. As

Abstract:

<p>Cloud computing is a new buzzword within the IT-industry, and introduces a whole new way of working with IT. The technique delivers web based services, which results in that the user no longer needs to install an application locally on a computer. Since the application no longer needs to run on a local entity, but in a datacenter located on a service provider, the users no longer need any specific hardware more than a computer with an internet connection. Cloud computing also offers IT-infrastructure and development environments as services, these three service types is better known as clou

L’emmagatzematge i el processat de grans dades en entorns locals presenta certs inconvenients, però l’ús del núvol per emmagatzemar i processar les dades pot donar lloc a problemes de privadesa i seguretat. En aquesta tesi tractem la problemàtica associada a l’ús de núvols no confiables. En particular, volem que el núvol pugui fer dos operacions amb dades sensibles no xifrades de manera pràctica i que preservi la privadesa: productes escalars i productes de matrius. Aquestes operacions són útils per fer diferents tipus d’anàlisis de dades com ara el càlcul de correlacions entre atributs i

Abstract:

Growing demands in heterogeneous utility computing systems in future cloud and high performance computing systems are driving the development of processor-hardware accelerator interconnects with greater performance, flexibility, and dynamism. Recent innovations in the field of utility computing have led to an emergence in the use of heterogeneous compute elements. By leveraging the computing advantages of hardware accelerators alongside typical general purpose processors, performance efficiency can be maximized. The network linking these compute nodes is increasingly becoming the bottleneck in

Computational grids are distributed systems composed of heterogeneous computing resources which are distributed geographically and administratively. These highly scalable systems are designed to meet the large computational demands of many users from scientific and business orientations. This dissertation address problems related to the allocation of the computing resources which compose a grid. First, the design of a pan-Canadian grid is presented. The design exploits the maturing stability of grid deployment toolkits, and introduces novel services for efficiently allocating the grids reso

Abstract:

Self-adaptive and self-managing systems optimize their own behaviour according to high-level objectives and constraints. One way for human administrators to effectively specify goals for such optimization problems is using policies. Over the past decade, researchers produced various approaches, models and techniques for policy specification in different areas including distributed systems, communication networks, web services, autonomic computing, and cloud computing. Research challenges range from characterizing policies for ease of specification in particular application domains to categoriz
