Load balancing method of service cluster based on mean-variance by Xiaoan BAO, Xue WEI, Lei CHEN, Guoheng HU, Na ZHANG

“…When a large number of concurrent requests are allocated,the load scheduling mechanism is to achieve the load balancing of nodes in the network by minimizing the response time and maximizing the utilization ratio of nodes.In the load balancing algorithm based on genetic algorithm,the fitness function is designed to have an important influence on the load balancing efficiency.A service cluster load balancing method based on mean-variance was proposed to optimize the fitness function.The investment portfolio selection model mean-variance was used to minimize the response time,which was used to get the weight of each server's resource utilization,so as to obtain the optimal allocation combination.This method improves the accuracy and efficiency of the fitness function.Compared with other models in different service environment,the simulation results show that the load balancing algorithm makes the service cluster get a better balance performance in terms of node utilization and response time.…”

A computation offloading scheme for energy consumption optimization in Internet of vehicles by Wenxuan GAO, Xinjie YANG

“…In Internet of vehicles (IoV), vehicle-oriented applications are generally computation-intensive and latency-sensitive.Introducing idle computing resources from mobile vehicles as a supplement to network computing power can effectively alleviate the load pressure on edge servers.The problem of task allocation for edge computation offloading in the context of IoV environment were researched.By fully leveraging the combined computing resources of roadside units (RSU), user vehicles, and mobile vehicles within the RSU service range, a computation offloading strategy based on the sparrow search algorithm was proposed and referred to as sparrow search based computation offloading scheme (S²COS), aiming to optimize the overall system energy consumption.In addition, this strategy fully taked into account practical network issues such as service time constraints caused by vehicle mobility and the potential occurrence of computation node failures.The simulation results demonstrate that S²COS can meet the latency requirements for computation-intensive and latency-sensitive tasks, while significantly reducing system energy consumption.…”

Asymptotic quadratic price game mechanism for video stream extensible feedback unloading by Qianqian GE

“…A progressive quadratic price game mechanism with scalable feedback offloading of video streams was proposed.Firstly,the congestion of cellular network could be alleviated by effectively uninstalling some video traffic from all video streaming services to Wi-Fi network,thus providing seamless video streaming services.Several physi-cal paths were integrated in an economical and efficient way.The fountain coded symbols of compressed video data were transmitted simultaneously through LTE and Wi-Fi network to flexibly control the viewing through Wi-Fi net-work and reduce the video quality degradation caused by wireless channel errors.Secondly,a progressive secondary price auction mechanism was used to allocate limited LTE resources to multiple user devices to maximize social wel-fare and achieve Nash equilibrium.The scalability and convergence of the system were verified theoretically.Finally,the performance advantages of the proposed algorithm in video streaming transmission quality and energy consump-tion were verified by experimental simulation.…”
