Dynamic resource provisioning for data center workloads with data constraints
Dynamic resource provisioning, as an important data center software building block, helps to achieve high resource usage efficiency, leading to enormous monetary benefits. Most existing work for data center dynamic provisioning target on stateless servers, where any request can be routed to any …

Metrics, Models and Methodologies for Energy-Proportional Computing
… of electrical circuitry. However, such over provisioning is often unnecessary since a data center rarely operates at its maximum capacity. It is imperative that we realize effective strategies to control the power consumption of the server and improve the energy efficiency of data centers. …

An Analysis of Conventional & Heterogenous Workloads on Production Supercomputing Resources
Cloud computing setups are a huge investment of resources and personnel to maintain. As<br />the workload on a system is a major contributing factor to both the performance of the<br />system and a representation of the needs of system users, a clear understanding of the<br />workload is critical …

VERTICAL ELASTICITY OF RESOURCE MANAGEMENT ON CLOUDS
… for efficiently managing and utilizing computing resources. However, the variability and fluctuations in workload experienced by long-running applications on clouds pose challenges in resource management, necessitating elastic resource allocation for dynamic adjustments. Vertical elasticity, …

A sociological analysis of phonics lesson plans across four structured pedagogic programmes in South Africa
… of interventions that offer teacher training, resource provisioning and lesson plans in an attempt to alter teacher's pedagogy and improve learning outcomes. Focusing on lesson plans (also referred to as teacher guides) that attempt to structure phonics pedagogy, this study uses a Bernsteinian …

Fireworks: A Fast, Efficient and Safe Serverless Framework
… a high economic benefit from highly elastic resource provisioning to the application. However, it also accompanies the new challenges for serverless computing: (1) start-up time latency problem from relatively short function execution time, (2) high-security risk from highly consolidated …

Development and application of quantitative methods for ecosystem services
… understanding of influences of aquatic genetic resource provisioning using the SWAT model, (3) improve quantification methods for climate regulation ecosystem services using the DayCent model; and (4) evaluate Indiana agricultural producers' and conservationists' perceptions of ecosystem …

Effects of Bird Feeder Density on the Behavior and Ecology of a Feeder-Dependent Songbird: Patterns and Implications for Disease Transmission
Anthropogenic resource provisioning of wildlife has increasingly been hypothesized to alter pathogen spread. Although bird feeding is the most widespread form of intentional wildlife provisioning, we know relatively little about how the degree of anthropogenic feeding at a site impacts wild birds …

Agent-based Modelling and Social Theory Reveal How People Change Their Yards in Response to Wildlife
… wildlife by providing habitat, food and other resources. Previous studies have shown that people manage their gardens in different ways to attract or deter wildlife and that visible wildlife diversity can increase people’s investment in nature and resource provisioning. These relationships …

Combinatorial Auction-Based Virtual Machine Provisioning And Allocation In Clouds
… states that when there are large amount of resources to be allocated to large number of users, auctions are the most efficient allocation mechanisms. Auctions achieve efficiency of allocation and also maximize the providers' revenue, which a fixed-price based mechanism is unable to do. We …

Cost-Effective Resource Configurations for Executing Data-Intensive Workloads in Public Clouds
… large data. Cloud computing offers “infinite” resources on demand, and on a pay-as-you-go basis. As a result, it has gained interest for large-scale data processing. Given this supposedly infinite resource set, we need a provisioning process to determine appropriate resources for data …

Resource scheduling and design of real-time Cyber-Physical Systems in the open system environment
In this thesis, we consider the problem of resource provisioning and system designs for real-time Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) in an open system environment. In an open system environment, there does not exist a global resource scheduler that has complete knowledge of the real-time performance …

Reducing deadline miss rate for grid workloads running in virtual machines: a deadline-aware and adaptive approach
… have a diverse set of requirements for machine resources such as CPU, Memory, Network and have inter-dependencies on other jobs in meeting their deadlines since the input of one job can be the output from the previous job. A novel resource provisioning model was devised to decrease the impact of …

Workload Management for Data-Intensive Services
… ensuring stable system performance and high resource utilization. To address these challenges, we have developed a new control policy for provisioning resources dynamically in coarse-grained units (e.g., adding or removing servers or virtual machines in cloud platforms). Our new policy, …

Autonomic management of virtualized resources in cloud computing
… on the effective management of virtualized resources. A key requirement of cloud management is the ability to dynamically match resource allocations to actual demands, To this end, we aim to design and implement a cloud resource management mechanism that manages underlying complexity, …
