System designs, optimizing resource allocation to organization units, is still being considered as a complicated problem especially when there are multiple inputs and outputs related to a unit. The algorithm presented here will divide the frontiers obtained with DEA. In this way, we investigate a new approach for resource allocation.

since software systems play an important role in applications more than ever, the security has become one of the most important indicators of softwares.cloud computing refers to services that run in a distributed network and are accessible through common internet protocols. presenting a proper scheduling method can lead to efficiency of resources by decreasing response time and costs. this rese...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a non-parametric method for assessing relative efficiency of decision-making units (dmus). every single decision-maker with the use of inputs produces outputs. these decision-making units will be defined by the production possibility set. resource allocation to dmus is one of the concerns of managers since managers can employ the results of this process to all...

introduction: efficiency evaluation of universities and faculties is one of the tools that help managers to identify the departments’ strengths and weakness. the main objective of the present research was to measure and compare the technical efficiency of shiraz school of medicine departments using data envelopment analysis (dea) technique. methods: this cross-sectional and retrospective study ...

Edge computing has emerged as a new paradigm to bring cloud applications closer users for increased performance. Unlike back-end systems which consolidate their resources in centralized data center location with virtually unlimited capacity, edge-clouds comprise distributed at various “computation spots”, each very limited capacity. In this article, we consider Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) wher...

Voice over IP (VoIP) is a promising service of the future Internet. It could provide users with new features in a costeffective way. However, such a service poses, as other realtime applications do, new challenges on the ways of provisioning and engineering the networks. On the data plane (i.e., packet forwarding plane), sufficient resources need to be deployed and adequate mechanisms need to b...

The large diversity of applications and requirements posed to current network environments make the resource allocation problem difficult to work out. This paper proposes a dynamic algorithm based on weighted fair queueing (WFQ) to promote fairness (in the Rawlsian sense) and efficiency (in the Paretian sense) in the allocation of bandwidth for multi-application networks. Utility functions are ...

The rapid proliferation of wireless systems makes interference management more and more important. This paper presents a novel cognitive coexistence framework, which enables an infrastructure system to reduce interference to ad-hoc or peerto-peer communication links in close proximity. Motivated by the superior resources of the infrastructure system, we study how its centralized resource alloca...

Cloud computing is internet-based computing in which large groups of remote servers are networked to allow the centralized data storage, and online access to computer services or resources. Major issue of cloud computing is in its load balancing. In this proposed work, an efficient dynamic load balancing algorithm for cloud environment is introduced. So many clients requesting for same resource...
