Live virtual machine migration is a powerful feature of virtualization technologies. It enables efficient load balancing, reduces energy consumption through dynamic consolidation, and makes infrastructure maintenance transparent to users. While live migration is available across wide area networks with state of the art systems, it remains expensive to use because of the large amounts of data to...

In the virtualization technique, numbers of different components are involved to manage the network, storage, memory. Live migration is the key concept in which the live or active virtual machine is migrated from one host to another host i.e. physical server without disturbing the live environment and the services. This feature is useful for handling the different tasks like power management, I...

An efficient optimization approach is described to calibrate load factors used for designing of structures. The load factors are calibrated so that the structural reliability index is as close as possible to a target reliability value. The optimization procedure is applied to find optimal load factors for designing of structures in accordance with the new version of the Mexico City Building Cod...

BACKGROUND Tuberculosis is an infection that requires at least 6 months of chemotherapy in order to clear the bacteria from the patient's lungs. Usually, therapeutic monitoring is dependent on smear microscopy where a decline in acid-fast bacilli is observed. However, this might not be indicative of the actual decline of bacterial load and thus other tools such as culture and molecular assays a...

Modern web services such as Facebook are made up of hundreds of systems running in geographicallydistributed data centers. Each system needs to be allocated capacity, configured, and tuned to use data center resources efficiently. Keeping a model of capacity allocation current is challenging given that user behavior and software components evolve constantly. Three insights motivate our work: (1...

Load balance mechanism does the vital role in high performance computing (HPC) and energy efficient computing (EEC). An effective load balance mechanism achieves high performance resource management. Several load management platform (e.g. Openstack, Nebula and Eucaluptus) available to simulate/perform status of algorithm. Load balance manager should be able to customize the resource management ...
