Academic and industry experts are now advocating for going from large-centralized Cloud
Computing infrastructures to smaller ones massively distributed at the edge of the network …

Development of environments for distributed systems is a tedious and time-consuming
iterative process. The reproducibility of such environments is a crucial factor for rigorous …

In the field of large-scale distributed systems, experimentation is particularly difficult. The
studied systems are complex, often nondeterministic and unreliable, software is plagued …

In this paper we address the question of developing a lightweight and effective workflow for
conducting experimental research on modern parallel computer systems in a reproducible …

Executing Big Data workloads upon High Performance Computing (HPC) infrastractures has
become an attractive way to improve their performances. However, the collocation of HPC …

Cloud computing by far brings a lot of undeniable advantages. Accordingly, many research
works aim to evaluate the characteristics of cloud systems on many aspects such as …

Although virtual machine (VM) placement problem has been an active research area over
the past decade, the research community is still looking for an open simulation framework …

Despite the importance of experiment-driven research in the distributed computing
community, there has been little progress in helping researchers conduct their experiments …

In this paper, an on-line parallel analytics framework is proposed to process and store in
transit all the data being generated by a Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulation run using …
