“…Many VM migration approaches have optimized application downtime (Gerofi et al, 2011;Hines et al, 2009;Svärd et al, 2011) and total migration duration (Deshpande et al, 2012, Gerofi et al, 2011Hines et al, 2009;Koto et al, 2012;Svärd et al, 2011;Zhang et al, 2013) by employing optimization and avoiding aggressive migration termination (a case of pre-copy). However, only few schemes (Gerofi et al, 2011, Svärd et al, 2011 consider the application's QoS degradation while migrating VMs across servers within a DC. (Yin et al, 2014) N Table 3 illustrates the objective of VM migration schemes.…”
