In this paper, we consider a variant of an M/M/c/c loss system with fluctuating server capacity. Given a set of primary inputs, such as arrival rate, service rate, and capacity fl...
Abstract-- We present a Start-time Fair Queueing (SFQ) algorithm that is computationally efficient and achieves fairness regardless of variation in a server capacity. We analyze it...
Load sharing in the data centre is an essential strategy for meeting service levels in high volume and high availability services. We investigate the accuracy with which simple, cl...
Abstract. Virtualization-based server consolidation is an important technique for cost and energy reductions in data center environments and a key enabler of cloud computing. Howev...
