A performance oriented migration framework for the grid

TL;DR: A migration framework for performance oriented Grid systems that implements tightly coupled policies for both suspension and migration of executing applications and takes into account both system load and application characteristics is described.

Abstract: At least three factors in the existing migration frameworks make them less suitable in Grid systems especially when the goal is to improve the response times for individual applications. These factors are the separate policies for suspension and migration of executing applications employed by these migration frameworks, the use of pre-defined conditions for suspension and migration and the lack of knowledge of the remaining execution time of the applications. In this paper we describe a migration framework for performance oriented Grid systems that implements tightly coupled policies for both suspension and migration of executing applications and takes into account both system load and application characteristics. The main goal of our migration framework is to improve the response times for individual applications. We also present some results that demonstrate the usefulness of our migration framework.

1. What have the authors contributed in "A performance oriented migration framework for the grid" ?

In this paper the authors describe a migration framework for performance oriented Grid systems that implements tightly coupled policies for both suspension and migration of executing applications.. The authors also present some results that demonstrate the usefulness of their migrating system.

2. What are the future works in "A performance oriented migration framework for the grid" ?

The authors are planning to modify the SRS library to store these information in the Runtime Support System ( RSS ).. Also, instead of fixing the rescheduler threshold at 30 %, their future work will involve determining the rescheduling threshold dynamically based on the dynamic observation of load behavior on the system resources.. The rescheduler, instead of associating a fixed worst-case redistribution cost for the application, will then use relevant information from RSS and also the NWS information for bandwidth and latency between the machines to calculate the redistribution cost dynamically.
