Many cloud service providers (CSPs) provide on-demand service at a price with a small delay. We propose a QoS-differentiated model where multiple SLAs deliver both on-demand service for latency-critical users and delayed services for delay-tolerant users at lower prices. Two architectures are considered to fulfill SLAs. The first is based on priority queues. The second simply separates servers into multiple modules, each for one SLA. As an ecosystem, we show that the proposed framework is dominant-strategy incentive compatible. Although the first architecture appears more prevalent in the literature, we prove the superiority of the second architecture, under which we further leverage queueing theory to determine the optimal SLA delays and prices. Finally, the viability of the proposed framework is validated through numerical comparison with the on-demand service and it exhibits a revenue improvement in excess of 200%. Our results can help CSPs design optimal delay-differentiated services and choose appropriate serving architectures.
Cloud computing delivers value to users by facilitating their access to computing capacity in periods when their need arises. An approach is to provide both on-demand and spot services on shared servers. The former allows users to access servers on d
The life-cycle of a partial differential equation (PDE) solver is often characterized by three development phases: the development of a stable numerical discretization, development of a correct (verified) implementation, and the optimization of the i
The advent of experimental science facilities-instruments and observatories, such as the Large Hadron Collider, the Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory, and the upcoming Large Synoptic Survey Telescope-has brought about challenging, l
Cloud computing has become increasingly popular. Many options of cloud deployments are available. Testing cloud performance would enable us to choose a cloud deployment based on the requirements. In this paper, we present an innovative process, imple
We start with a discussion of the relevant literature, including Nature Inspired Computing as a framework in which to understand this work, and the process of biomimicry to be used in mimicking the necessary biological processes to create Digital Eco
