Performance degradation assessment and VM placement policy in cloud

In virtualized servers, with live migration technique pages are copied from one physical machine to another while the virtual machine (VM) is running. The dynamic migration of virtual machines encumbers the data center which in turn reduces the performance of applications running on that particular physical machine. A considerable number of studies have been carried out in the area of performance evaluation during live VM migration.  However, all the aspects related to the migration process have not been examined for the performance assessment. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to evaluate the performance during migration process in different types of coupled machine environment. It is presented here that the state of art VM migration technology requires further improvement in realizing effective migration by monitoring comprehensive performance value. We introduced the parameter, θ, to compare performance value which can be used for controlling and halting unsuccessful migration and save significant amount of time in migration operation.  Our model is capable of analyzing real time scenario of cloud performance assessment targeting VM migration strategies. It also offers the possibility of further expanding to universal models for analyzing the performance variations that occurs as a result of VM migration

ERMO2 algorithm: an energy efficient mobility management in mobile cloud computing system for 5G heterogeneous networks

Recently, mobile devices are becoming the primary platforms for every user who always roam around and access the cloud computing applications. Mobile cloud computing (MCC) combines the both mobile and cloud computing, which provides optimal services to the mobile users. In next-generation mobile environments, mainly due to the huge number of mobile users in conjunction with the small cell size and their portable information‟s, the influence of mobility on the network performance is strengthened. In this paper, we propose an energy efficient mobility management in mobile cloud computing (E2M2MC2) system for 5G heterogeneous networks. The proposed E2M2MC2 system use elective repeat multi-objective optimization (ERMO2) algorithm to determine the best clouds based on the selection metrics are delay, jitter, bit error rate (BER), packet loss, communication cost, response time, and network load. ERMO2 algorithm provides energy efficient management of user mobility as well as network resources. The simulation results shows that the proposed E2M2MC2 system helps in minimizing delay, packet loss rate and energy consumption in a heterogeneous network
