A survey and taxonomy on energy efficient resource allocation techniques for cloud computing systems
(
Springer
, 2014 , Article)
In a cloud computing paradigm, energy efficient allocation of different virtualized ICT resources (servers, storage disks, and networks, and the like) is a complex problem due to the presence of heterogeneous application ...
Verifying cloud service-level agreement by a third-party auditor
(
John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
, 2014 , Article)
In this paper, we study the important issue of verifying service-level agreement (SLA) with an untrusted cloud and present an SLA verification framework that utilizes a third-party auditor (TPA). A cloud provides users ...
Distributed resource allocation in cloud-based wireless multimedia social networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Article)
With the rapid penetration of mobile devices, more users prefer to watch multimedia live-streaming via their mobile terminals. Quality of service provision is normally a critical challenge in such multimedia sharing ...
Exploiting context severity to achieve opportunistic service differentiation in vehicular ad hoc networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Article)
Wireless Access in Vehicular Environment (WAVE) dictates primitives for intelligent transportation system (ITS) applications and services. The medium access control (MAC) layer in WAVE facilitates service differentiation. ...
Impact of execution time on adaptive wireless video scheduling
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Article)
Adaptive wireless video scheduling has been widely studied to improve network performance. However, the majority of existing scheduling algorithms assume that they are able to converge instantaneously to adapt to a dynamic ...
Mobility prediction in telecom cloud using mobile calls
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Article)
The proliferation of the telecom cloud has fostered increasing attention on location-based applications and services. Due to the randomness and fuzziness of human mobility, it still remains open to predict user mobility. ...
Joint routing and resource allocation for delay minimization in cognitive radio based mesh networks
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Article)
This paper studies the joint design of routing and resource allocation algorithms in cognitive radio based wireless mesh networks. The mesh nodes utilize cognitive overlay mode to share the spectrum with primary users. ...
Towards scalable traffic management in cloud data centers
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Article)
Cloud Computing is becoming a mainstream paradigm, as organizations, large and small, begin to harness its benefits. This novel technology brings new challenges, mostly in the protocols that govern its underlying infrastructure. ...
Analyzing cognitive network access efficiency under limited spectrum handoff agility
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Article)
Most existing studies on cognitive-radio networks assume that cognitive users (CUs) can switch to any available channel, regardless of the frequency gap between a target channel and the current channel. However, due to ...
PLM maturity evaluation and prediction based on a maturity assessment and fuzzy sets theory
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2014 , Article)
Companies adopt PLM maturity models to evaluate PLM implementation and recognize relative positions in PLM selection to better harness PLM benefits. However, the majority traditional PLM maturity models are relative ...
