Web application providers have been migrating their applications to cloud data centers,
attracted by the emerging cloud computing paradigm. One of the appealing features of the …

With modern requirements, there is an increasing tendency of considering multiple
objectives/criteria simultaneously in many Software Engineering (SE) scenarios. Such a …

Microservices based architectures are increasingly widespread in the cloud software
industry. Still, there is a shortage of auto-scaling methods designed to leverage the unique …

Nowadays, by integrating the cloud radio access network (C-RAN) with the mobile edge
cloud computing (MEC) technology, mobile service provider (MSP) can efficiently handle the …

A microservice-based application is composed of a set of small services that run within their
own processes and communicate with a lightweight mechanism. Processing the …

Autoscaling system can reconfigure cloud-based services and applications, through various
configurations of cloud software and provisions of hardware resources, to adapt to the …

In presence of multiple objectives to be optimized in Search-Based Software Engineering
(SBSE), Pareto search has been commonly adopted. It searches for a good approximation of …

Self-Adaptive Software (SAS) can reconfigure itself to adapt to the changing environment at
runtime, aiming to continually optimize conflicted nonfunctional objectives (eg, response …

Configurable software systems can be tuned for better performance. Leveraging on some
Pareto optimizers, recent work has shifted from tuning for a single, time-related performance …

Automatically tuning software configuration for optimizing a single performance attribute (eg,
minimizing latency) is not trivial, due to the nature of the configuration systems (eg, complex …
