Achieving Intelligent Traffic-aware Consolidation of Virtual Machines in a Data Center Using Learning Automata
Jobava, Akaki; Yazidi, Anis; Oommen, John; Begnum, Kyrre (Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2016)Cloud Computing (CC) is becoming increasingly pertinent and popular. A natural consequence of this is that many modern-day data centers experience very high internal traffic within the data centers themselves. The ... -
An inhomogeneous Hidden Markov model for efficient virtual machine placement in a cloud computing enviroment
Hammer, Hugo Lewi; Yazidi, Anis; Begnum, Kyrre (Journal article; Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-09-19)In a cloud environment virtual machines are created with different purposes like providing users with computers, handling web traffic etc. A virtual machine is created in such a way that a user will not notice any ... -

Déjà vu - Predicting the number of players in online games through normalization of historical data
Tyvand, Jon-Erik; Begnum, Kyrre; Hammer, Hugo Lewi (Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2011)A key factor to delivering a good online gaming experience is to have sufficient server resources relative to the number of players online. In this work, we present a simple profiling technique which allows effective ... -
Effective live migration of virtual machines using partitioning and affinity aware-scheduling
Yazidi, Anis; Ung, Fredrik; Haugerud, Hårek; Begnum, Kyrre (Computers and Electrical Engineering;volume 69 (2018), Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-07-11)During maintenance and disaster recovery scenarios, Virtual Machine (VM) inter-site migrations usually take place over limited bandwidth—typically Wide Area Network (WAN)—which is highly affected by the amount of inter-VM ... -
Enhancing creativity and play through accessible projector-based interactive PC-control touch technology
Begnum, Miriam Eileen Nes; Finstadsveen, Johan; Begnum, Kyrre (The proceedings of Unitech : International Conference on Universal Technologies;2010, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2010)Standard computer peripherals are often challenging to use for mobility impaired, and in particular controlling computer mouse movements efficiently and without risking strain injuries. Projected touch screen technology ... -
Evading a Machine Learning-based Intrusion Detection System through Adversarial Perturbations
Fladby, Torgeir; Haugerud, Hårek; Nichele, Stefano; Begnum, Kyrre; Yazidi, Anis (RACS: Research in Applied Computation Symposium; RACS '20: International Conference on Research in Adaptive and Convergent Systems, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference proceeding, 2020-10)Machine-learning based Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems provide significant value to organizations because they can efficiently detect previously unseen variations of known threats, new threats related to known ... -
The Hydra: A layered, redundant configuration management approach for cloud-agnostic disaster recovery
Huang, Ke; Begnum, Kyrre (IEEE International Conference on Cloud Computing Technology and Science;, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2013)This paper demonstrates a bottom-up approach to developing autonomic fault tolerance and disaster recovery on cloud-based deployments. We avoid lock-in to specific recovery features provided by the cloud itself, and instead ... -
IncludeOS: A minimal, resource efficient unikernel for cloud services
Bratterud, Alfred; Walla, Alf-Andre; Haugerud, Hårek; Engelstad, Paal E.; Begnum, Kyrre (IEEE International Conference on Cloud Computing Technology and Science;2015, Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)The emergence of cloud computing as a ubiquitous platform for elastically scaling services has generated need and opportunity for new types of operating systems. A service that needs to be both elastic and resource efficient ... -
On achieving intelligent traffic-aware consolidation of virtual machines in a data center using Learning Automata
Jobava, Akaki; Yazidi, Anis; Oommen, John; Begnum, Kyrre (Journal of Computational Science;Volume 24, Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-01)Unlike the computational mechanisms of the past many decades, that involved individual (extremely powerful) computers or clusters of machines, Cloud Computing (CC) is becoming increasingly pertinent and popular.
