Energy efficient virtual machine placement algorithm with balanced resource utilization based on priority of resources

The increasing energy consumption has become a major concern in cloud computing due to its cost and environmental damage. Virtual Machine placement algorithms have been proven to be very effective in increasing energy efficiency and thus reducing the costs. In this paper we have introduced a new priority routing VM placement algorithm and have compared it with PABFD (power-aware best fit decreasing) on CoMon dataset using CloudSim for simulation. Our experiments show the superiority of our new method with regards to energy consumption and level of SLA violations measures and prove that priority routing VM placement algorithm can be effectively utilized to increase energy efficiency in the clouds

Modeling and Simulation of NFC Logical Layer Peer-to-Peer Mode using CPN and TA

Network communication technologies have been growing explosively due to the increasing demand on faster and simpler communication; hence, providing new communication technologies is a challenging task. To make this task easy, many researchers have developed different network modeling and simulation tools with different characteristics. In this paper, simulation of Near Field Communication (NFC) logical layer control protocol is proposed to investigate efficiency of NFC device in peer-to-peer mode. For this purpose, Colored Petri Net (CPN) and Timed Automata (TA) have been used for analyses. According to the results, CPN was better than TA for simulating NFC logical layer control protocol because it could provide more details on complex communication network.DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/ijece.v4i2.515
