A lightweight service placement approach for community network micro-clouds
(2019-03)
Article
Open AccessCommunity networks (CNs) have gained momentum in the last few years with the increasing number of spontaneously deployed WiFi hotspots and home networks. These networks, owned and managed by volunteers, offer various ... -
A look at energy efficient system opportunities with community network clouds
(CEUR-WS.org, 2014)
Conference report
Open AccessCommunity networking is an emerging model of a shared communication infrastructure in which communities of citizens build and own open networks. Community networks offer successfully IP-based networking to the user. In ... -
ARTA: An economic middleware to exchange pervasive energy and computing resources
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2016)
Conference report
Open AccessStudies reveal that an integrated system of smart grid and cloud computing ecosystems can better attain the energy efficiency objectives, considering all the aspects. To facilitate the integration, in this paper, we introduce ... -
Client-side routing-agnostic gateway selection for heterogeneous wireless mesh networks
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2017)
Conference report
Open AccessCitizens develop Wireless Mesh Networks (WMN) in many areas as an alternative or their only way for local interconnection and access to the Internet. This access is often achieved through the use of several shared web proxy ... -
Combing smart grid with community clouds: next generation integrated service platform
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2014)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyCollaboration-based distributed systems are becoming more prevalent these days. Two such systems are Community Clouds, where a large number of anonymous private users share their computational resources within the community, ... -
Community sharing of spare network capacity
(IEEE Press, 2017)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn several community scenarios, people share benevolently their spare broadband Internet access connectivity with other people who cannot afford it. Although laudable, this sharing process can negatively affect the service ... -
Design trade-offs of crowdsourced web access in community networks
(2017)
Conference report
Open AccessInternet access has become a requirement to participate in society; however, the majority of the world’s population is not yet online. Citizens can self-organize cooperatively to crowdsource community network infrastructures ... -
Energy efficiency dilemma: P2P-cloud vs. datacenter
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2014)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyEnergy consumption is increasing in the IT sector and a remarkable part of this energy is consumed in data centers. Numerous techniques have been proposed to solve the energy efficiency issue in cloud systems. Recently, ... -
Energy efficient cloud service provisioning: Keeping data center granularity in perspective
(2016-06)
Article
Open AccessThe cost of power and its associated delivery are becoming significant factors in the total expenditure of large-scale data centers. Numerous techniques have been proposed to address the energy efficiency issue in cloud ... -

Resource-aware scaling of multi-threaded Java applications in multi-tenancy scenarios
(IEEE Computer Society Publications, 2013)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyCloud platforms are becoming more prevalent in every computational domain, particularly in e-Science. A typical scientific workload will have a long execution time or be data intensive. Providing an execution environment ... -
Towards network-aware service placement in community network micro-clouds
(Springer, 2016)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyCloud services in community networks have been enabled by micro-cloud providers. They form community network micro-clouds (CNMCs), which grow organically, i.e. without being planned and optimized beforehand. Services running ...
