Dynamic Hierarchical Structure Optimisation for Cloud Computing Job Scheduling
Lane, Peter; Helian, Na; Bodla, Muhammad Haad; Zheng, Minghua; Moggridge, Paul (Springer Nature, 2022-04-15)The performance of cloud computing depends in part on job-scheduling algorithms, but also on the connection structure. Previous work on this structure has mostly looked at fixed and static connections. However, we argue ... -
EED: Energy Efficient Disk drive architecture
Deng, Y.H.; Wang, F.; Helian, Na (2008)Energy efficiency has become one of the most important challenges in designing future computing systems, and the storage system is one of the largest energy consumers within them. This paper proposes an Energy Efficient ... -
