Contract-Based Load Management in Federated Distributed Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper focuses on load management in looselycoupled federated distributed systems. We present a distributed mechanism for moving load between autonomous participants using bilateral contracts that are negotiated offline and that set bounded prices for moving load. We show that our mechanism has good incentive properties, efficiently redistributes excess load, and has a low overhead in practice. Our load management mechanism is especially wellsuited for distributed stream-processing applications, an emerging class of data-intensive applications that employ a “continuous query processing” model. In this model, streams of data are processed and composed continuously as they arrive rather than after they are indexed and stored. We have implemented the mechanism in the Medusa distributed stream processing system, and we demonstrate its properties using simulations and experiments.

Fault-tolerance and load management in a distributed stream processing system
Advances in monitoring technology (e.g., sensors) and an increased demand for online information processing have given rise to a new class of applications that require continuous, lowlatency processing of large-volume data streams. These “stream processing applications” arise in many areas such as sensor-based environment monitoring, financial services, network monitoring, and military applicat...
متن کاملImproved Prediction-based Dynamic Load Balancing Systems for HLA-Based Distributed Simulations
Due to the dependency of High-Level Architecture (HLA)-Based simulations on the resources of distributed environments, simulations can face load imbalances and can suffer from low performance in terms of execution time. HLA is a framework that simplifies the implementation of distributed simulations; it also has been built with dedicated resources in mind. As technology is nowadays shifting tow...
