TLDR
A layered cloud where various cloud layers virtualize parts of the cloud infrastructure is considered, and the architecture takes into account different stakeholders in the cloud (infrastructure providers, platform providers, application providers and end users).Abstract:
In this paper, we discuss several facets of optimization in cloud computing, the corresponding challenges and propose an architecture for addressing those challenges. We consider a layered cloud where various cloud layers virtualize parts of the cloud infrastructure. The architecture takes into account different stakeholders in the cloud (infrastructure providers, platform providers, application providers and end users). The architecture supports self-management by automating most of the activities pertaining to optimization: monitoring, analysis and prediction, planning and execution.read more

Mechanisms for SLA provisioning in cloud-based service providers
TL;DR: The experimental evaluation performed confirms that the proposed policies are capable to properly dimension the system resources making the whole system self-adaptable respect to the workload fluctuation, allowing to save up to the 32% of resource allocation cost always in the respect of SLA constraints.

Collective dynamics of small-world networks
TL;DR: Simple models of networks that can be tuned through this middle ground: regular networks ‘rewired’ to introduce increasing amounts of disorder are explored, finding that these systems can be highly clustered, like regular lattices, yet have small characteristic path lengths, like random graphs.

Survey Constrained model predictive control: Stability and optimality
TL;DR: This review focuses on model predictive control of constrained systems, both linear and nonlinear, and distill from an extensive literature essential principles that ensure stability to present a concise characterization of most of the model predictive controllers that have been proposed in the literature.

The vision of autonomic computing
TL;DR: A 2001 IBM manifesto noted the almost impossible difficulty of managing current and planned computing systems, which require integrating several heterogeneous environments into corporate-wide computing systems that extend into the Internet.

Rainbow: architecture-based self-adaptation with reusable infrastructure
TL;DR: The Rainbow framework uses software architectural models to dynamically monitor and adapt a running system and shows that the separation of a generic adaptation infrastructure from system-specific adaptation knowledge makes this reuse possible.
