Elasticity can be seen as the ability of a system to increase or decrease the computing
resources allocated in a dynamic and on demand way. It is an important feature provided by …

Cloud computing provides elastic on-demand resource allocation, enabling big data
systems to process large amounts of streaming data in real time. However, a shared cloud …

Elasticity is a feature quite important for cloud computing and it is related to how a system
autonomously adapts its capacity over time to fit the workload variation. In this context, this …

Elasticity is an important characteristic of Cloud Computing, and can be understood as how
a computational cloud computing fits to variations in their workload by provisioning and …

Nowadays the concepts and infrastructures of Cloud Computing are becoming a standard
for several applications. Scalability is not only a buzzword anymore, but is being used …

This second part of the paper is concerned with types and properties of virtual resources in
the generalized grid and cloud architectures. We study the contemporary approaches to …

In this paper, we present the Execution and Resources Homogenization Architecture
(ERHA). The architecture aims to provide mechanisms for submitting and executing batch …

In Cloud Computing, the utilization of virtual machines (VMs) as a computational resource
unit is a fundamental concept. In a Cloud environment, VMs are deployed on physical …

De modo geral, não há no estado-da-arte mecanismos: 1. Genéricos (independentes de
modelos de programação) 2. Que permitam a exploração da elasticidade horizontal e …

Currently many customers and providers are using resources of cloud computing
environments, such as processing and storage, for their applications and services. With the …
