With the exponential data growth, there is a crucial need for highly available, scalable, reliable, and cost-effective Distributed Storage Systems (DSSs). To ensure such efficient and fault tolerant systems, replication and erasure coding techniques are typically used in traditional DSSs. However, these systems are prone to failure and require different failure prevention and recovery algorithms. Failure recovery of DSS and data reconstruction techniques take into consideration different performance metrics optimization in the recovery process. In this paper, DSS performance metrics are introduced. Several recent papers related to adopting erasure coding in DSSs are surveyed together with highlighting related performance metrics …

Since the last decade, public cloud platforms are rapidly becoming de-facto computing platform for our society. To support the wide range of users and their diverse applications, public cloud platforms started to offer the same VMs under many purchasing options that differ across their cost, performance, availability, and time commitments. Popular purchasing options include on-demand, reserved, and transient VM types. Reserved VMs require long time commitments, whereas users can acquire and release the on-demand (and transient) VMs at any time. While transient VMs cost significantly less than on-demand VMs, platforms may revoke them at any time. In general, the stronger …

This paper provides a fog-based approach to solving the traffic light optimization problem which utilizes the Adaptive Traffic Signal Control (ATSC) model. ATSC systems demand the ability to strictly reflect real-time traffic state. The proposed fog computing framework, namely FogFly, aligns with this requirement by its natures in location-awareness, low latency and affordability to the changes in traffic conditions. As traffic data is updated timely and processed at fog nodes deployed close to data sources (i.e., vehicles at intersections) traffic light cycles can be optimized efficiently while virtualized resources available at network edges are efficiently utilized. Evaluation results show that …

Source Separation Approach To Video Quality Prediction In Computer Networks, Ruairí De Fréin
Articles
Time-varying loads introduce errors in the estimated model parameters of service-level predictors in Computer Networks. A load-adjusted modification of a traditional unadjusted service-level predictor is contributed, based on Source Separation (SS). It mitigates these errors and improves service-quality predictions for Video-on-Demand (VoD) by :6 to 2dB.

In this paper we propose GRAMS which is a resource monitoring and analysis system in Grid environment. GRAMS provides an infrastructure for conducting online monitoring and performance analysis of a variety of Grid resources including computational and network devices. Based on analysis on real-time event data as well as historical performance data, steering strategies are given for users or resource scheduler to control the resources. Besides, GRAMS also provides a set of management tools as well as services portals for user not only accessing performance data but also handling these resources. Moreover, a preliminary system prototype is presented.
