Abstract
Virtual Machine Placement (VMP) plays a significant role in improving efficiency of Cloud Data Center (CDC). With the dramatic increase in the use of cloud computing, it seems necessary to apply effective algorithms to reduce the power consumption of CDC. VMP is known as a NP-Hard problem that cannot be solved by deterministic algorithms in polynomial time. In this paper, an algorithm named Combinated Random Best First Fit (CRBFF) is proposed with the aim of increasing the Quality of Service (QoS), in which Virtual Machines (VMs) are optimally placed on heterogeneous Physical Machines (PMs). The effectiveness of CRBFF is evaluated by different metrics on Google Compute Engine (GCE), Amazon Web Service Elastic Compute Cloud (AWS EC2) and Microsoft Azure scenarios and the results show that CRBFF performs better than other common algorithms.
期刊介绍:
Computing publishes original papers, short communications and surveys on all fields of computing. The contributions should be written in English and may be of theoretical or applied nature, the essential criteria are computational relevance and systematic foundation of results.
