Cloud computing has become a hot technology. The virtualization technology, one of its core support technologies, is also developing quickly. In recent years, a lot of research and practice have been done in the virtualization field. Live virtual machine migration has drawn much attention as a representative technology of the virtualization field. This paper summarizes the research progress of ...

The live migration of Virtual Machines (VMs) is a key technology in server virtualization solutions used to deploy Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) clouds. This process, on one hand, increases the elasticity, fault tolerance, and maintainability in the virtual environment. On the other hand, it increases the security challenges in cloud environments, especially when the migration is performed...

An indispensable feature enabled by system virtualization is the live migration of virtual machines (VMs). By dynamically relocating an entire execution environment including the operating system from one machine to another, a networked system such as data-center and computing grid can benefit from load balancing, online maintenance and fault tolerance. Ideally, a virtual machine should be able...

The Physical servers used in IT are under-utilized. The better utilization of these servers can be achieved using virtualization technology. Virtualization techniques create multiple partitions which are isolated with each other called virtual machines. Each virtual machine (guest) runs their own operating system. The resource allocated for these VMs may fail to execute an application because o...

Live Migration is one of the essential operations that require more attention to addressing its high variability problems with virtual machines. We review the existing techniques of resource management to find that there are less modeling to solve this problem. The present paper introduces a novel framework that mainly targets to achieve a computational effective resource management technique. ...
