Many data center virtualization solutions, such as VMware ESX, employ content-based page
sharing to consolidate the resources of multiple servers. Page sharing identifies virtual …

The consolidation of multiple workloads and servers enables the efficient use of server and
power resources in shared resource pools. We employ a trace-based workload placement …

A shared distributed infrastructure is formed by federating computation resources from
multiple domains. Such shared infrastructures are increasing in popularity and are providing …

The consolidation of multiple servers and their workloads aims to minimize the number of
servers needed thereby enabling the efficient use of server and power resources. At the …

We are developing Virtuoso, u system, for distributed computing using virtual machines
(VMs). Virtuoso must be uble to mix batch und interactive VMs on the same physical …

Over the last few years, several nations around the world have set up Grids to share
resources such as computers, data, and instruments to enable collaborative science …

We examine whether traditional disk I/O scheduling still provides benefits in a layered
system consisting of virtualized operating systems and underlying virtual machine monitor …

In this paper, we show that performance of the virtualized cluster servers could be improved
through intelligent decision over migration time of Virtual Machines across heterogeneous …
