Cost effective storage of massive intermediate data in cloud computing applications. For frontier technologies, the project aims at inventing novel algorithms for data storage in cloud computing applications and hence will reduce the cost by smart information use. For sustainability, the project can help with reducing energy consumption by dealing more effectively with the growth of massive data in cloud computing facilities.
Energy-Efficient Computing: Expanding the Role of Scheduling in Cloud Data Centres. Cloud data centres have become increasingly large-scale to meet ever increasing computing and storage capacity. The requirement of uninterrupted service availability has also contributed to such expansion. However, this relentless pursuit of high performance and high availability has led to serious resource over-provisioning and, in turn, low performance to energy consumption ratios. The impact of this poor resou ....Energy-Efficient Computing: Expanding the Role of Scheduling in Cloud Data Centres. Cloud data centres have become increasingly large-scale to meet ever increasing computing and storage capacity. The requirement of uninterrupted service availability has also contributed to such expansion. However, this relentless pursuit of high performance and high availability has led to serious resource over-provisioning and, in turn, low performance to energy consumption ratios. The impact of this poor resource management goes beyond the issue of cloud data centre efficiency, including excessive carbon footprint. This project aims to develop new energy-aware scheduling and resource allocation algorithms to provide energy-efficient solutions. These solutions exploit both workload and system diversity in cloud data centres.Read moreRead less
