Technical Report: A Trace-Based Performance Study of Autoscaling Workloads of Workflows in Datacenters
To improve customer experience, datacenter operators offer support for
simplifying application and resource management. For example, running workloads
of workflows on behalf of customers is desirable, but requires increasingly
more sophisticated autoscaling policies, that is, policies that dynamically
provision resources for the customer. Although selecting and tuning autoscaling
policies is a challenging task for datacenter operators, so far relatively few
studies investigate the performance of autoscaling for workloads of workflows.
Complementing previous knowledge, in this work we propose the first
comprehensive performance study in the field. Using trace-based simulation, we
compare state-of-the-art autoscaling policies across multiple application
domains, workload arrival patterns (e.g., burstiness), and system utilization
levels. We further investigate the interplay between autoscaling and regular
allocation policies, and the complexity cost of autoscaling. Our quantitative
study focuses not only on traditional performance metrics and on
state-of-the-art elasticity metrics, but also on time- and memory-related
autoscaling-complexity metrics. Our main results give strong and quantitative
evidence about previously unreported operational behavior, for example, that
autoscaling policies perform differently across application domains and by how
much they differ.Comment: Technical Report for the CCGrid 2018 submission "A Trace-Based

Fuzzy C-Mean And Genetic Algorithms Based Scheduling For Independent Jobs In Computational Grid
The concept of Grid computing is becoming the most important research area in the high performance computing. Under this concept, the jobs scheduling in Grid computing has more complicated problems to discover a diversity of available resources, select the appropriate applications and map to suitable resources. However, the major problem is the optimal job scheduling, which Grid nodes need to allocate the appropriate resources for each job. In this paper, we combine Fuzzy C-Mean and Genetic Algorithms which are popular algorithms, the Grid can be used for scheduling. Our model presents the method of the jobs classifications based mainly on Fuzzy C-Mean algorithm and mapping the jobs to the appropriate resources based mainly on Genetic algorithm. In the experiments, we used the workload historical information and put it into our simulator. We get the better result when compared to the traditional algorithms for scheduling policies. Finally, the paper also discusses approach of the jobs classifications and the optimization engine in Grid scheduling
