One of the important issues in cloud computing is an advanced management of large scale server clusters enabling efficient energy use and SLA compliance. That includes smart placement of virtual machines to appropriate hosts and thereby, efficient allocation of physical resources to virtual machines. One of the promising approaches is to optimize the placement based on predicting future requested physical resources for each virtual machine. However, often predictions cannot always be accurate and might cause increasing rates of SLA violation. In this paper we present an adaptive algorithm for predictive resource allocation and optimized VM placement that offers a solution to this problem.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
