Order based labeling scheme for dynamic XML (extensible markup language) query processing

Thesis (Master)--Izmir Institute of Technology, Computer Engineering, Izmir, 2012Includes bibliographical references (leaves: 43-46)Text in English; Abstract: Turkish and Englishix, 55 leavesNeed for robust and high performance XML database systems increased due to growing XML data produced by today’s applications. Like indexes in relational databases, XML labeling is the key to XML querying. Assigning unique labels to nodes of a dynamic XML tree in which the labels encode all structural relationships between the nodes is a challenging problem. Early labeling schemes designed for static XML document generate short labels; however, their performance degrades in update intensive environments due to the need for relabeling. On the other hand, dynamic labeling schemes achieve dynamicity at the cost of large label size or complexity which results in poor query performance. This thesis presents OrderBased labeling scheme which is dynamic, simple and compact yet able to identify structural relationships among nodes. A set of performance tests show promising labeling, querying, update performance and optimum label size

Energy Efficiency in SDDC: Considering Server and Network Utilities

© 2020 IEEE. Software Defined Networking (SDN) has eased the management and control of networks through separation of the control and data planes. Software defined data centers (SDDC) automate the management of end systems which are physical machines and virtual machines. In data centers, although there is a vast work on minimizing power consumption of physical machines and virtual machine migration performance, energy efficiency of the network components is given little attention. In this paper, a software-based energy efficiency framework that jointly minimizes the power consumption of end systems and network components in SDDC is proposed. Moreover, a novel physical server utility interval based metric, namely Ratio for Energy Saving of Physical Machines (RESPM) which measures how energy efficient the physical servers with respect to virtual machines residing within is proposed. To jointly maximize network energy efficiency and RESPM values, an Integer Programming (IP) formulation has been introduced. Experiments conducted on real-world virtual migration traces show that the proposed framework jointly reduces the power consumption of end systems and network components. The system has shown an improvement of 9% in RESPM, 35% energy saving in Ratio of Energy Saving in SDN (RESDN), and more than 50% in links saving
