Migration cost and profit oriented cloud federation formation: hedonic coalition game based approach

摘要: Cloud federation has paved the way for cloud service providers (CSP) to collaborate with other CSPs serve users’ resource requests, which are prohibitively high any single CSP during peak time. Moreover, entice different participate in federation, it is necessary maximize profit of all involved federation. Further, enables overloaded distribute their load among underloaded member by migrating virtual machines (VM). Migration VM also increase reliability and availability services on occurrence faults datacenters CSPs. Thus becomes important form a CSPs, such that migration cost VMs between same minimized simultaneously maximized. In this paper, we model problem forming as hedonic coalition game, utility function depending cost, objective maximizing former minimizing latter. We propose an algorithm solve game compare its performance existing game-theory based formation mechanisms.
