In the dynamic cloud computing environment, to ensure, under the terms of service-level agreements, the maximum efficiency of resource utilization, it is necessary to investigate the online dynamic management of virtual machine resources and their operational application systems/components. In this study, the feasibility and properties of the division of virtual machine resources on the cloud platform, using the virtual machine cluster as the management unit, are investigated. First, the definitions of virtual machine clusters are compared, and our own definitions are presented. Then, the feasibility of division using the virtual machine cluster as the management unit is described, and the isomorphism and reconfigurability of the clusters are proven. Lastly, from the perspectives of clustering and cluster segmentation, the dynamics of virtual machines are described and experimentally compared. This study aims to provide novel methods and approaches to the optimization management of virtual machine resources and the optimization configuration of the parameters of virtual machine resources and their application systems/components in large-scale cloud computing environments.

본 논문에서는 전가상화 방식의 가상 머신 모니터를 기반으로 메모리 중복을 통한 고장 감내 기능을 적용한 임베디드 시스템을 제안한다. 제안된 가상 머신 모니터는 우선 효율적인 섀도우 페이지 테이블 기법을 사용하여 메모리를 가상화한다. 이를 기반으로 대상 임베디드 시스템을 하나의 가상 머신으로 동작하게 하는 한편, 동일한 시스템을 별도의 가상 머신에서 동작하도록 백업 시스템을 구축함으로써 대상 임베디드 시스템의 메모리 영역이 미리 정해진 시점과 대상에 따라 백업 시스템의 메모리 공간으로 복사되도록 하였다. 이렇게 중복이 이루어진 임베디드 시스템은 고장이 발생하면 백업 시스템으로 전환하여 정상적인 동작을 이어나가게 된다. 성능 평가를 통해 제안된 기법이 임베디드 시스템의 성능을 크게 저하시키지 않으면서도 시스템의 가용성을 크게 향상시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Cloud Computing offers flexible, on demand, ubiquitous resources for cloud users. Cloud users are provided computing resources in a virtualized environment. In order to meet the growing demands for computing resources, data centres contain a large number of physical machines accommodating multiple virtual machines. However, cloud data centres cannot utilize their computing resources to their total capacity. Several policies have been proposed for improving energy proficiency and computing resource utilization in cloud data centres. Virtual machine placement is an effective method involving efficient mapping of virtual machines to physical machines. However, the availability of many physical machines accommodating multiple virtual machines in a data centre has made the virtual machine placement problem a non deterministic polynomial time hard (NP hard) problem. Metaheuristic algorithms have been widely used to solve the NP hard problems of multiple and conflicting objectives, such as the virtual machine placement problem. In this context, we presented essential concepts regarding virtual machine placement and objective functions for optimizing different parameters. This paper provides a taxonomy of metaheuristic algorithms for the virtual machine placement method. It is followed by a review of prominent research of virtual machine placement methods using meta heuristic algorithms and comparing them. Finally, this paper provides a conclusion and future research directions in virtual machine placement of cloud computing.

가상기계(Virtual Machine)는 소프트웨어로 제작되어 논리적인 시스템 구성을 갖는 컴퓨터이기 때문에 그 수행 속도와 필요 저장 공간 측면에서 성능이 떨어질 수밖에 없다. 이러한 환경에서의 가상기계 코드 최적화는 실행 성능을 향상시킬 수 있기에 중요하다. 특별히 임베디드 장치(Embedded Device)에서 작동하는 가상기계 환경에서의 최적화는 기존의 최적화에 비해 수행 비용 대비 효과에서 높은 효율을 요구한다. 이에 따라 프로파일링을 통하여 성능에 크게 영향을 주는 함수 또는 기본 블록(Basic Block)을 찾아 최적화하는 것이 효과적이다. 본 논문에서는 프로파일링을 이용한 가상기계 코드 최적화기를 설계하고 구현하였다. 먼저, 가상기계 코드 최적화를 위해 코드를 실행하여 얻을 수 있는 동적 정보인 프로파일링 데이터(Profiling Data)를 정의하였고, 프로파일링 정보를 이용한 가상기계 코드 최적기를 구현하였다. 또한, 구현과 실험에 있어서 가상기계 코드는 EVM(Embedded Virtual Machine)의 중간 언어인 SIL(Standard Intermediate Language)를 사용하였고, 구현된 최적화기에 대한 실험을 통해 최적화기의 효과를 확인하였다.

In this paper, we propose a fault tolerance technique which enables embedded systems to run without interruption while its operating system and tasks fail. In order to improve reliability, the proposed scheme makes an embedded system run as a virtual machine on virtual machine monitor. It also prepares a contingency virtual machine at which periodical backups of the embedded system are saved. When an error occurs in the main virtual machine, the corresponding standby virtual machine takes a role of the main virtual machine and continues its operation. Especially such backups and switches of virtual machines are performed with minor performance degradation by manipulating page table entries in virtual machine monitor. By conducting performance evaluation studies, we show that the proposed scheme makes embedded system robust against errors while it does not degrade the performance of the system significantly.

Virtual manufacturing system is integrated computer model that represents the precise and whole structure of manufacturing system and simulates its physical and logical behavior in operation.[1] A virtual machine is computer model that represents a CNC machine tool and one of core elements of virtual manufacturing system. In this paper, it is emphasized that a virtual machine must be web-based system for serving information to all attendants in a real machine tool without the restriction of time or location, and then in the fault diagnosis, one of important modules of a virtual machine, the methods of both using the controller signal and web-based expert system are proposed.

In cloud computing infrastructure, current virtual machine trust measurement methods have many shortcomings in dynamism, security and concurrency. In this paper, we present a new method to measure the trust of virtual machine. Firstly, we propose "behavior trace" to describe the state of virtual machine. Behavior trace is a sequence of behaviors. The measurement of behavior trace is conducted on the basis of anticipated trusted behavior, which not only ensures security of the virtual machine during runtime stage but also reduces complexity of the trust measurement. Based on the behavior trace, we present a Dynamic Tree Style Trust Measurement Model (DTSTM). In this model, the measurement of system domain and user domain is separated, which enhances the extensibility, security and concurrency of the measurement. Finally, based on System Call Interceptor (SCI) and Virtual Machine Introspection (VMI) technology, we implement a DTSTM prototype system for virtual machine trust measurement. Experimental results demonstrate that the system can effectively verify the trust of virtual machine and requires a relatively low performance overhead.
