The Océano Project - A Multi-Domain Cluster for a Computing Utility

چکیده

The Océano project is developing a prototype of a scaleable infrastructure that enables multienterprise hosting on a virtualized collection of hardware resources. Hosted customers increasingly require support for peak loads that are orders of magnitude larger than what they experience in their normal steady state, particularly for commercial Web workloads. Océano provides a hosting environment with fast response time in adjusting the resources (bandwidth, servers, and storage), assigned to each hosted customer, to the dynamically fluctuating workload. It creates dynamically carved domain clusters for each hosted enterprise, and introduces high levels of automation to control resources. Our objective is to research hosting architectures that enable high availability and dynamic scalability, for delivering networked applications and services, and are capable of handling large surges in traffic. We have implemented a pilot over a set of 50 Linux and 6 AIX servers.

Optimization of Time, Cost, and Quality in Critical Chain Method Using Simulated Annealing (RESEARCH NOTE)

In the last decade, theory of constraint application in project management lead to make a new approach for project scheduling and control as a critical chain. In this paper, a multi-objective optimization model for multi-project scheduling on critical chain is investigated. The objectives include time, cost and quality. In order to solve the problem, a Simulated Annealing algorithm is developed...

Océano - SLA Based Management of a Computing Utility

Océano is a prototype of a highly available, scaleable, and manageable infrastructure for an e-business computing utility. It enables multiple customers to be hosted on a collection of sequentially shared resources. The hosting environment is divided into secure domains, each supporting one customer. These domains are dynamic: the resources assigned to them may be augmented when load increases ...

A Model for Sharing the Costs of Uncontrollable Risks among Contracting Parties

The allocation of risks among the contracting parties in a contract is an important decision affecting the project success. Some risks in a project are uncontrollable; these are imposed to a project by external factors. Since contracting parties can neither control nor affect the occurrence of such risks, their allocation to a party would be inequitable. Therefore the cost overrun related to un...

Entropy-based Consensus for Distributed Data Clustering

The increasingly larger scale of available data and the more restrictive concerns on their privacy are some of the challenging aspects of data mining today. In this paper, Entropy-based Consensus on Cluster Centers (EC3) is introduced for clustering in distributed systems with a consideration for confidentiality of data; i.e. it is the negotiations among local cluster centers that are used in t...

Multiple utility constrained multi-objective programs using Bayesian theory

A utility function is an important tool for representing a DM’s preference. We adjoin utility functions to multi-objective optimization problems. In current studies, usually one utility function is used for each objective function. Situations may arise for a goal to have multiple utility functions. Here, we consider a constrained multi-objective problem with each objective having multiple utili...
