In the cloud computing market (CCM), computing services are traded between cloud providers and consumers in the form of the computing capacity of virtual machines (VMs). The Amazon spot market is one of the most well-known markets in which the surplus capacity of data centers is auctioned off in the form of VMs at relatively low prices. For each submitted task, the user can offer a price that is higher than the current price. However, uncertainty in the market environment confronts the user with challenges such as the variable price of VMs and the variable number of users. An appropriate …

With the recent advancements in computer technologies, the amount of data available is increasing day by day. However, excessive amounts of data create great challenges for users. Meanwhile, cloud computing services provide a powerful environment to store large volumes of data. They eliminate various requirements, such as dedicated space and maintenance of expensive computer hardware and software. Handling big data is a time-consuming task that requires large computational clusters to ensure successful data storage and processing. In this work, the definition, classification, and characteristics of big data are discussed, along with various cloud services, such as Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, …

Job Scheduling And Simulation In Cloud Based On Deep Reinforcement Learning, Qirui Li, Xinyi Peng
Journal of System Simulation
Abstract: To solve the difficulty in job scheduling in the complex and transient multi-user, multi-queue, and multi-data-center cloud computing environment, this paper proposed a job scheduling method based on deep reinforcement learning. A system model of cloud job scheduling and its mathematical model were built, and an optimization goal consisting of transmission time, waiting time, and execution time was obtained. A job scheduling algorithm based on deep reinforcement learning was designed, and its state space, action space, and reward function were given. A simulated cloud job scheduler was designed and developed, and simulated scheduling experiments were conducted on it. The …

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is an evidence-based brief interventional technique that has been demonstrated to be effective in triggering behavior change in patients. To facilitate behavior change, healthcare practitioners adopt a nonconfrontational, empathetic dialogic style, a core component of MI. Despite its advantages, MI has been severely underutilized mainly due to the cognitive overload on the part of the MI dialogue evaluator, who has to assess MI dialogue in real-time and calculate MI characteristic metrics (number of open-ended questions, close-ended questions, reflection, and scale-based sentences) for immediate post-session evaluation both in MI training and clinical settings. To automate dialogue assessment and …
