Dynamic services using the scalable and virtualized property over the network is provided in the cloud computing environment. The cloud computing does not effective in handling the normal resource allocation algorithms. The cloud computing schedulers make a decision on workflow allocation. Cloud always consumes a high communication cost than the known resource schedulers in large scale distribu...

This paper investigates the extent to which rural households in developing countries are able to smooth consumption, using a model of full risk sharing, in which participating households have different risk and time preferences. A resulting rule of resource allocation is characterized in an intuitive way, clarifying the effects of diverse preferences. Empirical models are applied to a household...

This paper addresses the utility-based radio resource allocation problem in DS-CDMA systems carrying multimedia traffic. The proposed scheme, aiming at achieving optimal resource allocation, considers the joint power and data rate allocation. To avoid high computational complexity of nonlinear optimization, we reformulate the radio resource allocation problem as a market model, where resource i...

Human error is a significant and ever-growing problem in the healthcare sector. In this study, resource allocation problem is considered along with human errors to optimize utilization of resources in an emergency department. The algorithm is composed of simulation, artificial neural network (ANN), design of experiment (DOE) and fuzzy data envelopment analysis (FDEA). It is a multi-response opt...

Introduction Interstate water disputes are an increasingly common occurrence throughout the United States, as the demands on transboundary water resources continue to increase in magnitude and diversity. These disputes can involve a variety of water-related issues. In the arid and semi-arid West, the interstate allocation-or "apportionment"-is normally the central and often only concern. In the...

In this paper, we model the optimisation of the resource allocation in cloud computing as a constraint satisfaction problem considering three types of resources (CPU, RAM and bandwidth) and design a Choco-Based algorithm (CB) for VM resource allocation in virtualised cloud data centres. We also propose an Improved First-Fit Decreasing Algorithm (IFFD) and an Improved Best-Fit Decreasing Algorit...
