Designing an Optimal Cloud Migration Strategy

A Near Optimal Approach in Choosing The Appropriate Physical Machines for Live Virtual Machines Migration in Cloud Computing

Migration of Virtual Machine (VM) is a critical challenge in cloud computing. The process to move VMs or applications from one Physical Machine (PM) to another is known as VM migration. In VM migration several issues should be considered. One of the major issues in VM migration problem is selecting an appropriate PM as a destination for a migrating VM. To face this issue, several approaches are...

A Cloud Technology Migration Management Strategy Model for Sme's in Iraq : an Overview

Purpose: Cloud computing has to play a major role in addressing inefficiencies and make a profitable contribution towards the Growth and Competitiveness mainly for SMEs. Cloud Computing came into prominence when Service Providers were offering a wide range of Cloud Based Solutions for Business. But the acceptance and interest shown towards Cloud Computing is less. The purposose of this paper is...

Improving Data Availability Using Combined Replication Strategy in Cloud Environment

As grow as the data-intensive applications in cloud computing day after day, data popularity in this environment becomes critical and important. Hence to improve data availability and efficient accesses to popular data, replication algorithms are now widely used in distributed systems. However, most of them only replicate the static number of replicas on some requested chosen sites and it is ob...

Towards an Optimal Routing Strategy

The key features of the principal interior routing protocols for large systems are considered and compared, and the major weaknesses of the open standards noted. A proposal is given for an improved version (the Enhanced Routing Algorithm ERA) and implementation options discussed. The results of initial simulation testing are summarized and future directions suggested in conclusion.
