Thank you so much for your interesting and help. Actually, I saw your papers when I was working on a white paper on Cloud Security Issues. Actually I looking for review paper in Workload Prediction with energy or temperature conservation.
Cloud computing is a recent scientific revolution in information technology, it is considered as the basic infrastructure of ubiquitous computing. It supports various features including, Internet based computing, and resources sharing. Delivery of services is provided to computers and other devices upon request. In other words, it is a technology based on the internet and central remote servers to maintain data and applications. This technology allows consumers and enterprises to use applications without the need of installing them or allowing access to their personal files at any computer with internet access. Among different users that may access the cloud data center, cloud computing must include job scheduling to organize and monitor these jobs, and to achieve fairness among all users. One of the most popular job scheduling algorithms is Round Robin (RR). This paper proposes an enhancement to the traditional RR, namely Randomized Round Robin (RRR). The enhanced version of RR algorithms is based on random selection for processes that come from different users to achieve near optimal selection of jobs to be served. A simulation has been carried out using CloudSim simulator V 3.0 to test the performance of the proposed scheme in terms of different evaluation metrics such as average throughput and average turnaround time.
One of my students is working on treating cloud as a commodity and forecasting the prices of cloud services. The forecast will then be used to optimize the work distribution among clouds. May be she is of some help to you. You can reach her through [email protected]
There are sections on workload management in a recent survey on cloud resource management that I co-authored:
Brendan Jennings and Rolf Stadler. Resource Management in Clouds: Survey and Research Challenges. Journal of Network and Systems Management 23(3):567-619, 2015. (doi:http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10922-014-9307-7)
There is also a more recent survey paper that deals specifically with forecasting and profiling models, see: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1084804514002252
