EXPERIMENTS
NOTE:
Simulate
using object oriented programming, any available cloud environment
(Eg;
Amazon cloud) and VMware for resource virtualization.
- Create a Collaborative learning environment for a particular learning topic using Google Apps. Google Drive, Google Docs and Google Slides must be used for hosting e-books, important articles and presentations respectively. The instructor must use the Google Sheets to convey the timetable for different events and for analyzing the scores for individual assignment submission.
- Modeling and simulation Cloud computing environments, including Data Centers, Hosts and Cloudlets and perform VM provisioning using CloudSim: Design a host with two CPU cores, which receives request for hosting two VMs, such that each one requires two cores and plans to host four tasks units. More specifically, tasks t1, t2, t3 and t4 to be hosted in VM1, while t5, t6, t7, and t8 to be hosted in VM2. Implement space-shared allocation policy and time-shared allocation policy. Compare the results.
- Model a Cloud computing environment having Data center that had 100 hosts. The hosts are to be modeled to have a CPU core (1000 MIPS), 2 GB of RAM and 1 TB of storage. Consider the workload model for this evaluation included provisioning requests for 400 VMs, with each request demanding 1 CPU core (250 MIPS), 256 MB of RAM and 1 GB of storage. Each VM hosts a web-hosting application service, whose CPU utilization distribution was generated according to the uniform distribution. Each instance of a webhosting service required 150,000 MIPS or about 10 minutes to complete execution assuming 100% utilization. Simulate Energy-conscious model for power consumption and power management techniques such as Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling (DVFS). Initially, VMs are to be allocated according to requested parameters (4 VMs on each host). The Cloud computing architecture that is to be considered for studying energy conscious resource management techniques/policies included a data center, CloudCoordinator, and Sensor component. The CloudCoordinator and Sensor perform their usual roles. Via the attached Sensors (which are connected with every host), CloudCoordinator must periodically monitor the performance status of active VMs such as load conditions, and processing share. This real time information is to be passed to VMM, which can use it for performing appropriate resizing of VMs and application of DVFS and soft scaling. CloudCoordinator continuously1 has to adapt allocation of VMs by issuing VM migration commands and changing power states of nodes according to its policy and current utilization of resources.
- Model and simulate the environment consisting of a data center with 10,000 hosts where each host was modeled to have a single CPU core (1200MIPS), 4GB of RAM memory and 2TB of storage. Consider the provisioning policy for VMs as space-shared, which allows one VM to be active in a host at a given instance of time. Make a request from the end-user (through the Datacenter Broker) for creation and instantiation of 50 VMs that had following constraints: 1024MB of physical memory, 1 CPU core and 1GB of storage. The application granularity was modeled to be composed of 300 task units, with each task unit requiring 1,440,000 million instructions (20 minutes in the simulated hosts) to be executed on a host. Minimal data transfer (300 KB) overhead can be considered for the task units (to and from the data center). After the creation of VMs, task units were submitted in small groups of 50 (one for each VM) at inter-arrival delay of 10 minutes.
- Implement Map Reduce concept for (a) Strassen’s Matrix Multiplication for a huge matrix. (b) Computing the average number of citation index a researcher has according to age among some 1 billion journal articles. Consider a network of entities and relationships between them. It is required to calculate a state of each entity on the basis of properties of the other entities in its neighborhood. This state can represent a distance to other nodes, indication that there is a neighbor with the certain properties, characteristic of neighborhood density and so on. A network is stored as a set of nodes and each node contains a list of adjacent node IDs. Mapper emits messages for each node using ID of the adjacent node as a key. Reducer must re compute state and rewrite node with the new state. Implement this scenario.
