An approach to optimise resource provision with energy-awareness in datacentres by combating task heterogeneity. (2018)
Journal Article
Panneerselvam, J., Liu, L., & Antonopoulos, N. (2018). An approach to optimise resource provision with energy-awareness in datacentres by combating task heterogeneity. IEEE Transactions on Emerging Topics in Computing, https://doi.org/10.1109/TETC.2018.2794328

Cloud workloads are increasingly heterogeneous such that a single Cloud job may encompass one to several tasks, and tasks belonging to the same job may behave distinctively during their actual execution. This inherent task heterogeneity imposes incre... Read More about An approach to optimise resource provision with energy-awareness in datacentres by combating task heterogeneity..
