The complexity of the cluster-based web service challenges the traditional approaches, which fail to guarantee the reliability and real-time performance required. In this paper, w...
This paper examines the suitability of different virtualization techniques in a high performance cluster environment. A survey of virtualization techniques is presented. Two repre...
Scalability is a crucial factor in performance evaluation and analysis of parallel and distributed systems. Much effort has been devoted to scalability research and several metric...
