Design and Implementation of an Efficient Two-Level Scheduler for Cloud Computing Environment

Abstract: Cloud computing focuses on delivery of reliable, fault-tolerant and scalable infrastructure for hosting Internet based application services. Our work presents the implementation of an efficient Quality of Service (QoS) based meta-scheduler and Backfill strategy based light weight Virtual Machine Scheduler for dispatching jobs. The user centric meta-scheduler deals with selection of proper resources to execute high level jobs. The system centric Virtual Machine (VM) scheduler optimally dispatches the jobs to processors for better resource utilization. We also present our proposals on scheduling heuristics that can be incorporated at data center level for selecting ideal host for VM creation. The implementation can be further extended at the host level, using Inter VM scheduler for adaptive load balancing in cloud environment.

Mechanical and Acoustic Properties of Alkali-Treated Sansevieria ehrenbergii/Camellia sinensis Fiber–Reinforced Hybrid Epoxy Composites: Incorporation of Glass Fiber Hybridization

Abstract: The intention behind this research work was to analyse the mechanical as well as acoustic behaviour of Sansevieria ehrenbergii (snake grass) / Camellia sinensis (waste tealeaf) fibers with glass fiber (GF) – reinforcement to form the hybrid epoxy composites. Fibers of S.ehrenbergii/C.sinensis were chemically modified for their effective usage as reinforcement in hybrid composites. Five combinations of hybrid composites were fabricated using hand-operated compression molding techniques by changing the percentage weight of snake grass fiber (SGF) and waste tea leaf fiber (WTLF). The results indicated that the mechanical behaviour of SGF/WTLF composites have been substantially enhanced by hybridization with GF. Enhanced mechanical behavior of hybrid composites is observed as an incremental percentage of SGF composition. The experimental findings show that the weight fraction of 25 wt.% WTLF reinforced with SGF shows a strong acoustic absorption coefficient (AAC) of 0.59 in the frequency range of 2000–6300 Hz as well introduces the potential for acoustic sound proofing applications, such as loudspeaker design, perforated panels, sound recording, and reproduction room. The morphological behavior of hybrid composites, such as fiber pullout, matrix crack, void formation, and interfacial bond between the binder and fibers were observed using a scanning electron microscope.
