Cloud and Grid Part II: Virtualized Resource Balancing
Anna Melekhova, Vladimir Vinnikov · Indian Journal of Science and Technology · 2015
This second part of the paper is concerned with types and properties of virtual resources in the generalized grid and cloud architectures. We study the contemporary approaches to efficient management of virtual resources like CPU, storage and network along with balancing of power consumption. Our considerations also aim at the performance and security complications arising due to virtualization as well as the means to solve respective problems.
