Combining Application Instrumentation and Simulation to Forecast Costs and Revenue in Application Service Provisioning Scenarios
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper presents an approach for complementing an existing application service provisioning architecture with a simulation component that is calibrated using measurements from the production system. The overall aim of the approach is to support service providers in planning and refining tariffs, adjusting system capacity, and estimating costs and profit.

Multi-objective and Scalable Heuristic Algorithm for Workflow Task Scheduling in Utility Grids
To use services transparently in a distributed environment, the Utility Grids develop a cyber-infrastructure. The parameters of the Quality of Service such as the allocation-cost and makespan have to be dealt with in order to schedule workflow application tasks in the Utility Grids. Optimization of both target parameters above is a challenge in a distributed environment and may conflict one an...

متن کاملDistributed Dynamic Resource Allocation in Quality of Service Networks
Efficient network provisioning mechanisms are essential to support service differentiation in the Internet. In this paper we propose a distributed provisioning architecture for intra-domain Quality of Service networks. We propose a new service model and we characterize the demand behavior of network’s users based on physically reasonable utility functions. This allows us to develop an efficient...
