A Virtual Machine Allocation Algorithm Based on Power-aware in Cloud Computing
Wang Xia-ju · Computer Technology and Development · 2014
Cloud computing technology has increasingly gained attention and acceptance. Besides the user performance,how to effectively improve the utilization of server resources,and how to save energy has become a hot topic of the current study. For the initial virtual machine allocation in cloud computing,an Power-Aware Virtual Machine Allocation Algorithm( PAVMAA) has been proposed in this paper. The algorithm considers fully the user's different needs of different applications,from the point of view of overall system optimization,and the best combination point between energy consumption and utilization of resource,by calculating Euclidean distance between the expected performance demand of the virtual machine and idle performance of the server to match the virtual machine with the server.Based on Cloudsim simulation platform,the experimental results show that the algorithm is simple,and can significantly reduce energy consumption.
