Due to the threat of failure and the discrete distribution of data center users, the research of
distributed cloud data center provides real-time cloud services with robustness, reliability …

In this paper, a novel co-optimization model is proposed for integrated electricity-gas-heat
urban energy systems to improve resilience during extreme events. This paper modelled …

In a cloud, protection through backup of virtual machines contained in physical machines
(PMs) reduces damage to users due to failure of PMs, such as hardware malfunctions …

By decoupling network service functions from custom-built hardware, network function
virtualization is transforming network service provisioning, making large scale …

In this paper, a post-event restoration method is proposed for power distribution systems
with Internet data centers (IDCs) as critical loads. The proposed method is formulated as a …

In today's digital world, businesses heavily rely on systems for every aspect of their
operations and product life cycle. Hence, it is important to have a strong ecosystem of …

In Cloud Computing, the tenants opting for the Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) send the
resource requirements to the Cloud Service Provider (CSP) in the form of Virtual Network …

This paper proposes a robust optimization model for probabilistic protection with multiple
types of resources to minimize the required backup capacity for each type of resource …

The use of the cloud to store personal/company data and to run programs is gaining wide
acceptance as it is more efficient and cost-effective. However, cloud services may not always …

This paper presents robust optimization models for minimizing the required backup capacity
