Improving the Energy Efficiency of Multi-core Virtual Machines and Software-Defined Servers

Period: 2018-01 to 2018-12
Funding agency: State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation SERI
Description: The goal of this collaboration project is putting together a methodology for power modeling and application characterization under varying parallelism with a energy-efficient machine-learning based hierarchical approach towards server virtualization and resource allocation. The combination of both domains will ultimately lead towards the development of a more general energy-aware framework for next-generation Quality-of-Service constrained and big-data virtualized applications. This framework will enable the efficient deployment of applications with varying degrees of parallelism and spanning among a virtualized multi-core server or a set of servers, following the paradigm of software-defined servers, and handling big-data problems that are unfeasible today.
