  1. 1. Resource Allocation for Data-Intensive Services in the Cloud

    Author : David Daharewa Gureya; Vladimir Vlassov; Joao Pedro Barreto; Gregory Chockler; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cloud computing; QoS-aware resource allocation; Elasticity controller; Multi-socket systems; Non-uniform memory access; Page placement; Memory-intensive applications; Informations- och kommunikationsteknik; Information and Communication Technology;

    Abstract : Cloud computing has become ubiquitous due to its resource flexibility and cost efficiency. Resource flexibility allows Cloud users to elastically scale their Cloud resources, for instance, by horizontally scaling the number of virtual machines allocated to each application as the application demands change.

  2. 2. Improving the Adaptability of the End-host : Service-aware Network Stack Tuning

    Author : Alexander Rabitsch; Anna Brunström; Per Hurtig; Stefan Alfredsson; Michael Welzl; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; transport layer; 5G; transport services; mobile broadband; network slicing; latency; availability; service optimization; multi-connectivity; Computer Science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : The Internet of today is very different from how it used to be. Modern networked applications are becoming increasingly diverse. Consequently, a variety of requirements must be met by the network. Efforts to make the underlying mechanisms of the Internet more flexible have therefore been made to adapt to this diversification.

  3. 3. Transport Services for Soft Real-Time Applications in IP Networks

    Author : Karl-Johan Grinnemo; Anna Brunström; Reiner Ludwig; Philippe Owezarski; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; transport protocol; congestion control; partial reliability; soft real-time; SCTP; failover; SIGTRAN; head-of-line blocking; Computer science; Datavetenskap; Datavetenskap; Computer Science;

    Abstract : In recent years, Internet and IP technologies have made inroads into almost every communication market ranging from best-effort services such as email and Web, to soft real-time applications such as VoIP, IPTV, and video. However, providing a transport service over IP that meets the timeliness and availability requirements of soft real-time applications has turned out to be a complex task. READ MORE

  4. 4. The monetary value of marine environmental change

    Author : Linus Hasselström; Cecilia Håkansson; Göran Finnveden; Tore Söderqvist; Carl-Johan Lagerkvist; KTH; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Contingent valuation; choice experiment; benefits transfer; cost-benefit analysis; ecosystem services; eutrophication; oil spills; Baltic Sea; Arctic; Planering och beslutsanalys; Planning and Decision Analysis;

    Abstract : The marine ecosystems are fundamental for human welfare. A number of current environmental pressures need attention, and the formulation of management strategies requires information from a variety of analytical dimensions. The linkage between environmental change and resulting implications for human welfare is one such dimension. READ MORE

  5. 5. On Power System Stabilizers: Genetic Algorithm Based Tuning and Economic Worth as Ancillery Services

    Author : Adrian Andreoiu; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The problem of power system stabilizer (PSS) parameter tuning is a complex exercise because of the presence of poorly damped modes of oscillation, and continuous variation in power system operating conditions. In recent years, as a result of the newly deregulated market environment, power systems tend to be operated at reduced security margins, thus making the system more vulnerable to disturbances.
