Abstract An effective and flexible computational platform is needed for the data coordination and processing associated with real time operational and application services in smart grid. A server environment where multiple applications are hosted by a common pool of virtualized server resources demands an open source structure for ensuring operational flexibility. In this paper, open source architecture is proposed for real time services which involve data coordination and processing. The architecture enables secure and reliable exchange of information and transactions with users over the internet to support various services. Prioritizing the applications based on complexity enhances efficiency of resource allocation in such situations. A priority based scheduling algorithm is proposed in the work for application level performance management in the structure. Analytical model based on queuing theory is developed for evaluating the performance of the test bed. The implementation is done using open stack cloud and the test results show a significant gain of 8% with the algorithm.

A hybrid algorithm to reduce energy consumption management in cloud data centersIJECEIAES
There are several physical data centers in cloud environment with hundreds or thousands of computers. Virtualization is the key technology to make cloud computing feasible. It separates virtual machines in a way that each of these so-called virtualized machines can be configured on a number of hosts according to the type of user application. It is also possible to dynamically alter the allocated resources of a virtual machine. Different methods of energy saving in data centers can be divided into three general categories: 1) methods based on load balancing of resources; 2) using hardware facilities for scheduling; 3) considering thermal characteristics of the environment. This paper focuses on load balancing methods as they act dynamically because of their dependence on the current behavior of system. By taking a detailed look on previous methods, we provide a hybrid method which enables us to save energy through finding a suitable configuration for virtual machines placement and considering special features of virtual environments for scheduling and balancing dynamic loads by live migration method.
Scheduling in Virtual Infrastructure for High-Throughput Computing IJCSEA Journal
For the execution of the scientific applications, different methods have been proposed to dynamically provide execution environments for such applications that hide the complexity of underlying distributed and heterogeneous infrastructures. Recently virtualization has emerged as a promising technology to provide such environments. Virtualization is a technology that abstracts away the details of physical hardware and provides virtualized resources for high-level scientific applications. Virtualization offers a cost-effective and flexible way to use and manage computing resources. Such an abstraction is appealing in Grid computing and Cloud computing for better matching jobs (applications) to computational resources. This work applies the virtualization concept to the Condor dynamic resource management system by using Condor Virtual Universe to harvest the existing virtual computing resources to their maximum utility. It allows existing computing resources to be dynamically provisioned at run-time by users based on application requirements instead of statically at design-time thereby lay the basis for efficient use of the
available resources, thus providing way for the efficient use of the available resources.

Efficient architectural framework of cloud computing Souvik Pal
Cloud computing is that enables adaptive, favorable and on-demand network access to a collective pool of adjustable and configurable computing physical resources which networks, servers, bandwidth, storage that can be swiftly provisioned and released with negligible supervision endeavor or service provider interaction. From business prospective, the viable achievements of Cloud Computing and recent developments in Grid computing have brought the platform that has introduced virtualization technology into the era of high performance computing. However, clouds are Internet-based concept and try to disguise complexity overhead for end users. Cloud service providers (CSPs) use many structural designs combined with self-service capabilities and ready-to-use facilities for computing resources, which are enabled through network infrastructure especially the internet which is an important consideration. This paper provides an efficient architectural Framework for cloud computing that may lead to better performance and faster access.
Resource-efficient workload task scheduling for cloud-assisted internet of th...IJECEIAES
One of the most challenging tasks in the internet of things-cloud-based environment is the resource allocation for the tasks. The cloud provides various resources such as virtual machines, computational cores, networks, and other resources for the execution of the various tasks of the internet of things (IoT). Moreover, some methods are used for executing IoT tasks using an optimal resource management system but these methods are not efficient. Hence, in this research, we present a resource-efficient workload task scheduling (RWTS) model for a cloud-assisted IoT environment to execute the IoT task which utilizes few numbers of resources to bring a good tradeoff, achieve high performance using fewer resources of the cloud, compute the number of resources required for the execution of the IoT task such as bandwidth and computational core. Furthermore, this model mainly focuses to reduce energy consumption and also provides a task scheduling model to schedule the IoT tasks in an IoT-cloud-based environment. The experimentation has been done using the Montage workflow and the results have been obtained in terms of execution time, power sum, average power, and energy consumption. When compared with the existing model, the RWTS model performs better when the size of the tasks is increased.

Cloud computing became a popular technology which influence not only
product development but also made technology business easy. The services
like infrastructure, platform and software can reduce the complexity of
technology requirement for any ecosystem. As the users of cloud-based
services increases the complexity of back-end technologies also increased.
The heterogeneous requirement of users in terms for various configurations
creates different unbalancing issues related to load. Hence effective load
balancing in a cloud system with reference to time and space become crucial
as it adversely affect system performance. Since the user requirement and
expected performance is multi-objective use of decision-making tools like
fuzzy logic will yield good results as it uses human procedure knowledge in
decision making. The overall system performance can be further improved by
dynamic resource scheduling using optimization technique like genetic
algorithm.
ABSTRACT
Cloud computing utilizes large scale computing infrastructure that has been radically changing the IT landscape enabling remote access to computing resources with low service cost, high scalability , availability and accessibility. Serving tasks from multiple users where the tasks are of different characteristics with variation in the requirement of computing power may cause under or over utilization of resources.Therefore maintaining such mega-scale datacenter requires efficient resource management procedure to increase resource utilization. However, while maintaining efficiency in service provisioning it is necessary to ensure the maximization of profit for the cloud providers. Most of the current research works aims at how providers can offer efficient service provisioning to the user and improving system performance. There are comparatively fewer specific works regarding resource management which also deals with the economic section that considers profit maximization for the provider. In this paper we represent a model that deals with both efficient resource utilization and pricing of the resources. The joint resource management model combines the work of user assignment, task scheduling and load balancing on the fact of CPU power endorsement. We propose four algorithms respectively for user assignment, task scheduling, load balancing and pricing that works on group based resources offering reduction in task execution time(56.3%),activated physical machines(41.44%),provisioning cost(23%) . The cost is calculated over a time interval involving the number of served customer at this time and the amount of resources used within this time

Grid computing or network computing is developed to make the available electric power in the similar way
as it is available for the grid. For that we just plug in the power and whoever needs power, may use it. In
grid computing if a system needs more power than available it can share the computing with other
machines connected in a grid. In this way we can use the power of a super computer without a huge cost
and the CPU cycles that were wasted previously can also be utilized. For performing grid computation in
joined computers through the internet, the software must be installed which supports grid computation on
each computer inside the VO. The software handles information queries, storage management, processing
scheduling, authentication and data encryption to ensure information security.
HYBRID OPTICAL AND ELECTRICAL NETWORK FLOWS SCHEDULING IN CLOUD DATA CENTRESijcsit
Hybrid intra-data centre networks, with optical and electrical capabilities, are attracting research interest
in recent years. This is attributed to the emergence of new bandwidth greedy applications and novel
computing paradigms. A key decision to make in networks of this type is the selection and placement of
suitable flows for switching in circuit network. Here, we propose an efficient strategy for flow selection and
placement suitable for hybrid Intra-cloud data centre networks. We further present techniques for
investigating bottlenecks in a packet networks and for the selection of flows to switch in circuit network.
The bottleneck technique is verified on a Software Defined Network (SDN) testbed. We also implemented
the techniques presented here in a scalable simulation experiment to investigate the impact of flow
selection on network performance. Results obtained from scalable simulation experiment indicate a
considerable improvement on average throughput, lower configuration delay, and stability of offloaded
flows..

Load Balancing in Cloud Computing Environment: A Comparative Study of Service...Eswar Publications
Load balancing is a computer networking method to distribute workload across multiple computers or a computer cluster, network links, central processing units, disk drives, or other resources, to achieve optimal resource utilization, maximize throughput, minimize response time, and avoid overload. Using multiple components with load balancing, instead of a single component, may increase reliability through redundancy. The
load balancing service is usually provided by dedicated software or hardware, such as a multilayer switch or a Domain Name System server. In this paper, the existing static algorithms used for simple cloud load balancing have been identified and also a hybrid algorithm for developments in the future is suggested.
CONTAINERIZED SERVICES ORCHESTRATION FOR EDGE COMPUTING IN SOFTWARE-DEFINED W...IJCNCJournal
As SD-WAN disrupts legacy WAN technologies and becomes the preferred WAN technology adopted by corporations, and Kubernetes becomes the de-facto container orchestration tool, the opportunities for deploying edge-computing containerized applications running over SD-WAN are vast. Service orchestration in SD-WAN has not been provided with enough attention, resulting in the lack of research focused on service discovery in these scenarios. In this article, an in-house service discovery solution that works alongside Kubernetes’ master node for allowing improved traffic handling and better user experience when running micro-services is developed. The service discovery solution was conceived following a design science research approach. Our research includes the implementation of a proof-ofconcept SD-WAN topology alongside a Kubernetes cluster that allows us to deploy custom services and delimit the necessary characteristics of our in-house solution. Also, the implementation's performance is tested based on the required times for updating the discovery solution according to service updates. Finally, some conclusions and modifications are pointed out based on the results, while also discussing possible enhancements.

Cloud service analysis using round-robin algorithm for qualityof-service awar...IJECEIAES
Round-robin (RR) is a process approach to sharing resources that requires each user to get a turn using them in an agreed order in cloud computing. It is suited for time-sharing systems since it automatically reduces the problem of priority inversion, which are low-priority tasks delayed. The time quantum is limited, and only a one-time quantum process is allowed in round-robin scheduling. The objective of this research is to improve the functionality of the current RR method for scheduling actions in the cloud by lowering the average waiting, turnaround, and response time. CloudAnalyst tool was used to enhance the RR technique by changing the parameter value in optimizing the high accuracy and low cost. The result presents the achieved overall min and max response times are 36.69 and 650.30 ms for running 300 min RR. The cost for the virtual machines (VMs) is identified from $0.5 to $3. The longer the time used, the higher the cost of the data transfer. This research is significant in improving communication and the quality of relationships within groups.

Mechanical properties of hybrid fiber reinforced concrete for pavementseSAT Journals
Abstract
The effect of addition of mono fibers and hybrid fibers on the mechanical properties of concrete mixture is studied in the present
investigation. Steel fibers of 1% and polypropylene fibers 0.036% were added individually to the concrete mixture as mono fibers and
then they were added together to form a hybrid fiber reinforced concrete. Mechanical properties such as compressive, split tensile and
flexural strength were determined. The results show that hybrid fibers improve the compressive strength marginally as compared to
mono fibers. Whereas, hybridization improves split tensile strength and flexural strength noticeably.

Material management in construction – a case studyeSAT Journals
Abstract
The objective of the present study is to understand about all the problems occurring in the company because of improper application
of material management. In construction project operation, often there is a project cost variance in terms of the material, equipments,
manpower, subcontractor, overhead cost, and general condition. Material is the main component in construction projects. Therefore,
if the material management is not properly managed it will create a project cost variance. Project cost can be controlled by taking
corrective actions towards the cost variance. Therefore a methodology is used to diagnose and evaluate the procurement process
involved in material management and launch a continuous improvement was developed and applied. A thorough study was carried
out along with study of cases, surveys and interviews to professionals involved in this area. As a result, a methodology for diagnosis
and improvement was proposed and tested in selected projects. The results obtained show that the main problem of procurement is
related to schedule delays and lack of specified quality for the project. To prevent this situation it is often necessary to dedicate
important resources like money, personnel, time, etc. To monitor and control the process. A great potential for improvement was
detected if state of the art technologies such as, electronic mail, electronic data interchange (EDI), and analysis were applied to the
procurement process. These helped to eliminate the root causes for many types of problems that were detected.

Life cycle cost analysis of overlay for an urban road in bangaloreeSAT Journals
Abstract
Pavements are subjected to severe condition of stresses and weathering effects from the day they are constructed and opened to traffic
mainly due to its fatigue behavior and environmental effects. Therefore, pavement rehabilitation is one of the most important
components of entire road systems. This paper highlights the design of concrete pavement with added mono fibers like polypropylene,
steel and hybrid fibres for a widened portion of existing concrete pavement and various overlay alternatives for an existing
bituminous pavement in an urban road in Bangalore. Along with this, Life cycle cost analyses at these sections are done by Net
Present Value (NPV) method to identify the most feasible option. The results show that though the initial cost of construction of
concrete overlay is high, over a period of time it prove to be better than the bituminous overlay considering the whole life cycle cost.
The economic analysis also indicates that, out of the three fibre options, hybrid reinforced concrete would be economical without
compromising the performance of the pavement.

Laboratory investigation of expansive soil stabilized with natural inorganic ...eSAT Journals
Abstract
Soil stabilization has proven to be one of the oldest techniques to improve the soil properties. Literature review conducted revealed
that uses of natural inorganic stabilizers are found to be one of the best options for soil stabilization. In this regard an attempt has
been made to evaluate the influence of RBI-81 stabilizer on properties of black cotton soil through laboratory investigations. Black
cotton soil with varying percentages of RBI-81 viz., 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, and 2.5 percent were studied for moisture density relationships
and strength behaviour of soils. Also the effect of curing period was evaluated as literature review clearly emphasized the strength
gain of soils stabilized with RBI-81 over a period of time. The results obtained shows that the unconfined compressive strength of
specimens treated with RBI-81 increased approximately by 250% for a curing period of 28 days as compared to virgin soil. Further
the CBR value improved approximately by 400%. The studies indicated an increasing trend for soil strength behaviour with
increasing percentage of RBI-81 suggesting its potential applications in soil stabilization.
Influence of reinforcement on the behavior of hollow concrete block masonry p...eSAT Journals
Abstract
Reinforced masonry was developed to exploit the strength potential of masonry and to solve its lack of tensile strength. Experimental
and analytical studies have been carried out to investigate the effect of reinforcement on the behavior of hollow concrete block
masonry prisms under compression and to predict ultimate failure compressive strength. In the numerical program, three dimensional
non-linear finite elements (FE) model based on the micro-modeling approach is developed for both unreinforced and reinforced
masonry prisms using ANSYS (14.5). The proposed FE model uses multi-linear stress-strain relationships to model the non-linear
behavior of hollow concrete block, mortar, and grout. Willam-Warnke’s five parameter failure theory has been adopted to model the
failure of masonry materials. The comparison of the numerical and experimental results indicates that the FE models can successfully
capture the highly nonlinear behavior of the physical specimens and accurately predict their strength and failure mechanisms.

Influence of compaction energy on soil stabilized with chemical stabilizereSAT Journals
Abstract
Increase in traffic along with heavier magnitude of wheel loads cause rapid deterioration in pavements. There is a need to improve
density, strength of soil subgrade and other pavement layers. In this study an attempt is made to improve the properties of locally
available loamy soil using twin approaches viz., i) increasing the compaction of soil and ii) treating the soil with chemical stabilizer.
Laboratory studies are carried out on both untreated and treated soil samples compacted by different compaction efforts. Studies
show that increase in compaction effort results in increase in density of soil. However in soil treated with chemical stabilizer, rate of
increase in density is not significant. The soil treated with chemical stabilizer exhibits improvement in both strength and performance
properties.
Keywords: compaction, density, subgradestabilization, resilient modulus

Evaluation of punching shear in flat slabseSAT Journals
Abstract
Flat-slab construction has been widely used in construction today because of many advantages that it offers. The basic philosophy in
the design of flat slab is to consider only gravity forces; this method ignores the effect of punching shear due to unbalanced moments
at the slab column junction which is critical. An attempt has been made to generate generalized design sheets which accounts both
punching shear due to gravity loads and unbalanced moments for cases (a) interior column; (b) edge column (bending perpendicular
to shorter edge); (c) edge column (bending parallel to shorter edge); (d) corner column. These design sheets are prepared as per
codal provisions of IS 456-2000. These design sheets will be helpful in calculating the shear reinforcement to be provided at the
critical section which is ignored in many design offices. Apart from its usefulness in evaluating punching shear and the necessary
shear reinforcement, the design sheets developed will enable the designer to fix the depth of flat slab during the initial phase of the
design.

Estimation of surface runoff in nallur amanikere watershed using scs cn methodeSAT Journals
Abstract
The development of watershed aims at productive utilization of all the available natural resources in the entire area extending from
ridge line to stream outlet. The per capita availability of land for cultivation has been decreasing over the years. Therefore, water and
the related land resources must be developed, utilized and managed in an integrated and comprehensive manner. Remote sensing and
GIS techniques are being increasingly used for planning, management and development of natural resources. The study area, Nallur
Amanikere watershed geographically lies between 110 38’ and 110 52’ N latitude and 760 30’ and 760 50’ E longitude with an area of
415.68 Sq. km. The thematic layers such as land use/land cover and soil maps were derived from remotely sensed data and overlayed
through ArcGIS software to assign the curve number on polygon wise. The daily rainfall data of six rain gauge stations in and around
the watershed (2001-2011) was used to estimate the daily runoff from the watershed using Soil Conservation Service - Curve Number
(SCS-CN) method. The runoff estimated from the SCS-CN model was then used to know the variation of runoff potential with different
land use/land cover and with different soil conditions.

Abstract The nonlinear Static procedure also well known as pushover analysis is method where in monotonically increasing loads are applied to the structure till the structure is unable to resist any further load. It is a popular tool for seismic performance evaluation of existing and new structures. In literature lot of research has been carried out on conventional pushover analysis and after knowing deficiency efforts have been made to improve it. But actual test results to verify the analytically obtained pushover results are rarely available. It has been found that some amount of variation is always expected to exist in seismic demand prediction of pushover analysis. Initial study is carried out by considering user defined hinge properties and default hinge length. Attempt is being made to assess the variation of pushover analysis results by considering user defined hinge properties and various hinge length formulations available in literature and results compared with experimentally obtained results based on test carried out on a G+2 storied RCC framed structure. For the present study two geometric models viz bare frame and rigid frame model is considered and it is found that the results of pushover analysis are very sensitive to geometric model and hinge length adopted.

Abstract
Depletion of natural resources and aggregate quarries for the road construction is a serious problem to procure materials. Hence
recycling or reuse of material is beneficial. On emphasizing development in sustainable construction in the present era, recycling of
asphalt pavements is one of the effective and proven rehabilitation processes. For the laboratory investigations reclaimed asphalt
pavement (RAP) from NH-4 and crumb rubber modified binder (CRMB-55) was used. Foundry waste was used as a replacement to
conventional filler. Laboratory tests were conducted on asphalt concrete mixes with 30, 40, 50, and 60 percent replacement with RAP.
These test results were compared with conventional mixes and asphalt concrete mixes with complete binder extracted RAP
aggregates. Mix design was carried out by Marshall Method. The Marshall Tests indicated highest stability values for asphalt
concrete (AC) mixes with 60% RAP. The optimum binder content (OBC) decreased with increased in RAP in AC mixes. The Indirect
Tensile Strength (ITS) for AC mixes with RAP also was found to be higher when compared to conventional AC mixes at 300C.

Abstract
An effective and flexible computational platform is needed for the data coordination and processing associated with real time
operational and application services in smart grid. A server environment where multiple applications are hosted by a common pool of
virtualized server resources demands an open source structure for ensuring operational flexibility. In this paper, open source
architecture is proposed for real time services which involve data coordination and processing. The architecture enables secure and
reliable exchange of information and transactions with users over the internet to support various services. Prioritizing the
applications based on complexity enhances efficiency of resource allocation in such situations. A priority based scheduling algorithm
is proposed in the work for application level performance management in the structure. Analytical model based on queuing theory is
developed for evaluating the performance of the test bed. The implementation is done using open stack cloud and the test results show
a significant gain of 8% with the algorithm.

1. INTRODUCTION
Smart grid is a complex network involving large number of
energy sources, controlling devices and load centers. Now the
focus is on the development of a dynamic smart grid
management platform for offering various services. An
interconnected smart grid with large number of dispersed
renewable energy sources, its associated measuring and
control functionalities require large data storage. The existing
centralized approach is not effective in such situation with
huge data storage and computational needs. The new
infrastructure to replace the existing one should address the
future data storage and computational needs. An efficient
smooth information exchange for monitoring and control of
widely distributed power sources is also needed. The immense
potential of cloud computing technology can be utilized to
address these issues. The sharing of resources in various
substations reduces the cost of operation, improves the
performance of utility and offers environmental friendly smart
grids. The cloud environment provides a flexible way of
building, facilitating computing and storage infrastructures for
varying on line and offline services. A flexible and upgradable
cloud computing architecture for application deployment
offers efficient application sharing over the internet.
Modern power system is structured with distributed energy
resources which are required to deal with large amount of data
and information systems [1]-[2]. The storage and processor
resources become increasingly higher with the integration of
renewable sources to the existing grid [3]. Cloud computing in
large power grid and cloud data service center are considered
as one of the central options which can integrate current
infrastructure resources of the enterprise like hardware, high-
performance distributed computing and data platform. The
recent work [4] presented a cloud computing model for
managing the real time streams of smart grid data for the near
real time information retrieval needs of the different energy
market actors. The approaches in [4]-[5] considered the model
of ubiquitous data storage and data access of the smart grid
data cloud, focusing on the characteristics of the underlying
cloud computing techniques. Architecture for data storage,
resource allocation and power management and control is
presented in [6]. The paper discusses existing issues and
necessity of a cloud computing architecture for power
management of micro grids.
Efficient utilization of resources is important in cloud
computing and for that scheduling plays a vital role to get
maximum benefit from resources [7]-[10]. Wei-Tek Tsai et al.
(2010) illustrated the Service-Oriented cloud computing
architecture. Cloud computing is getting popular and IT giants
such as Google, Amazon, Microsoft, IBM have started their
cloud computing infrastructure. The paper gives an overview
survey of current cloud computing architectures and discusses
the existing issues of current cloud computing
implementation. They presented a Service-Oriented Cloud

In line with the above, the paper presents general service
oriented architecture for real time services in a distributed
structure. The architecture for real time services generally
needs to incorporate various updates in the service level as
well as at the architectural level. Hence an open source
structure is preferred for the implementation set up. A priority
scheduling algorithm is presented in this paper for
performance management. Analytical model based on queuing
theory to capture the performance of the above structure is
also developed for evaluation.
2. SERVICE ORIENTED ARCHITECTURE FOR
REAL TIME SERVICE
Cloud computing is emerging with rapidly growing service
oriented architectures for real time services. Service oriented
architectures for various online services require a dynamic
adaptable infrastructure for sharing data, compute and
transaction services across applications. The system
architecture proposed in the paper enables secure and reliable
movement of information and transactions with the internal
resources, also with users over the internet to support various
services. The middleware provides the necessary functionality
required to build and deploy fully operational application
services. It includes resource management, data management
and portability. The logical service model is shown in
Figure1.The infrastructure as a service provides virtualized
data storage and computing power. The smart grid
applications in the cloud involves on line and offline
computations, monitoring and analysis of large data, including
online measurement data. The proposed architecture takes full
advantage of functionality provided by open stack and ensures
real time operations in a widely distributed environment.
Operating system requires hypervisor for creation and
termination of instances.
Fig -1: Logical View of Cloud Test bed for Smart grid
The process for selecting a hypervisor means priority and
making decisions based on resource constraints, numerous
supported features and required technical specifications.
Kernel Virtual Machine is selected as hypervisor in the
architecture and there is flexibility for selecting multiple
hypervisors for different zones. Different algorithms and
software associated with execution of the on line pricing and
data analytical operations are deployed as instances in the
smart grid application layer. The service scheduler is realized
through open stack nova, allocates the request according to the
service priority.
Each virtual machine shares resources on a physical server,
including CPU capacity, disk access bandwidth and network
I/O bandwidth. Hence the general terminology resource is
used throughout this paper to represent all the above shared
parameter together.
2.1 Implementation
The details of specifications of the test bed are shown in Table
1. Laboratory test bed has been set up for realizing the open
source cloud computing environment for various data
intensive and computational intensive applications in real time
mode. The performance of the architecture for different test
cases was recorded using web stress tool. The architecture for
meeting the above goal is depicted in Figure 2. The
components of open stack [12] configured for services include
nova-API nova-compute, nova-scheduler, nova-volume and
nova-network. Nova-API initiates most of the activities such
as running an instance and provides an endpoint for all API
queries. Nova-scheduler process take a virtual machine
instance request from the queue and determines where it
should run. The creation and termination of virtual machine
instance is controlled by nova-compute process. It accepts
actions from the queue and then performs a series of system
commands like launching a Kernel Virtual Machine (KVM)
instance to carry out while updating state in the database.

Fig -2: Architectural frame work for Application management
The nova-volume manages the creation, attaching and
detaching of persistent volumes to compute instances. Nova-
network accepts networking tasks from the queue and then
performs tasks to manipulate the network. Data base for
storing generation and consumption profile, the data handling
service for aggregating data from various locations, were
created as instances in the framework.
The architecture proposed here is for the operation of various
application services related to smart grid. The test case
considers application services relating to power system with
distributed generation to simulate the interaction between the
generating sources, loads and consumers. The data related to
various services were stored in the database created as
multiple instances. The aspect of real time data manipulation
was executed through software programs. The data handling
service created as another instance, manages the data traffic.
The case considered for testing involves N consumers and M
number of generating sources. Each production/consumption
update is forwarded to the multiple instances using data
handling service. Though it is an approximation of data
sending and reception by smart meters in the utility and
consumers, it contains all the required components and price
dynamics that are likely to be present in the future smart grid.
Real time pricing and data analytic services were deployed in
different virtual machines. Pricing calculation service involve
several algorithmic steps to reach its decision where as simple
data retrieval and processings are involved in the other
category. To avoid traffic conjunction, the applications which
require huge computing will be given lower priority. In the
architecture, all the request which is coming from client nodes
are goes through the service scheduler. It is preloaded with the
priority status of various services. Here the scheduler simply
allocates to the lightly loaded virtual CPU during normal
situations and executes priority inversion, when admissible
delay crosses the point. Python script has been used to
implement the algorithm.
The timely data retrieval and computational requirements
associated with the execution of on line enquiry from user
perspective was tested for different values of request rate. It
has been found that the response time requirement for real
user interactive services is very demanding. Moreover, in
virtualized environments resource allocation actuation can be
done inside the server as well, using interfaces available from
virtual machine monitors or hypervisors. Response time and
CPU consumption are used are reference parameters in such
operations. Hence in each experiment, time series of response
times and CPU consumption were collected and analyzed. The
performance results for 50,000 consumers requesting for
services at a request rate of 30/s is shown in Figure 3and
Figure 4, where actual CPU resources consumed by virtual
machines are represented as CPU consumption. The rate of
request considered here is comparable with the average
request level for above category of services in smart grid
environment with such number of consumers. The mean
response time varied between 35ms-45ms. The average value
of CPU consumption was about 50%-60%. These values are
reasonable considering the smaller test bed and the complexity
of applications used in the test. To have a better understanding
of the characteristics of the system for massive hit rate and
higher utilization of resources, another set of tests were
conducted by simulating cases with 100% incease in the
resource demand with same resource level. Figure 5 shows
the performance change in the test bed for higher utilization of
resources. Here, the percentage change Mean Response Time
(MRT) is defined as the percentage decrease in response time
for a given resource level and 100% increase in demand. High
utilization of the available resources while keeping the good
response is one of the advantages of the proposed algorithm.
The consistency in the performance was tested by conducting
experiments in the test bed with different cases. Table 2
depicts percentage of failed hits for different degree of
concurrent request. Tests were conducted by applying linearly
increasing request level for various numbers of users
considered. It has been found that the algorithmic approach
maintains good success rate for varying level of request rate.

3. DISCUSSION
The objective of these experiments was to test the
effectiveness of the architecture to handle real time services,
in smart grid environment. The study focuses on the
performance metrics. It is apparent from various results that
the proposed architecture in open stack cloud environment
maintains satisfactory level of responses for varying request
rate. Also found that performance is affected by the resource
capacity available to the system and the time varying demand
of the applications. The cloud environment succeeds to limit
the failure rate and offered a reasonable value of MRT for the
cases considered. Scheduling the applications according to
priority aids the dynamic resource allocation in virtualized
server environment. Result reveals that, at higher values of
resource demand, resource utilization is dynamically adjusted
and resources are allocated on time. The open source software
considered in the experiment permits up gradation of existing
architecture for incorporating more features. The architecture
can be extended to incorporate scheduling algorithms based on
other performance metrics. The analytical model developed
for evaluating the performance of the architecture is described
in the next section. The model considers the characteristics of
resource allocation in a dynamically changing workload
situation
4. ANALYTICAL MODEL FOR PERFORMANCE
EVALUATION.
The analytical modeling proposed in the work capture the
performance of the multiple applications hosted in a
virtualized environment. The work considers queuing theory
based modeling to characterize the performance of cloud
environment, where applications are distributed across
multiple virtual machines with time varying resource demand.
The modeling also uses the terminology resource to represent
all the resources shared by a virtual machine on a physical
server, e.g., resource consumption is considered in place of
CPU consumption. The paper [13] presented an analytical
model for multi-tier Internet application based on a network of
queues to represent how the tiers in multitier application
cooperate to process requests and demonstrated the utility of
the model in managing resources for internet application under
varying workloads and shifting bottlenecks. However, a
virtual machine differs from a physical server in that its
effective capacity varies with dynamic resource allocation. In
dynamically changing workload situations, the optimal
performance can be achieved by allotting the application
request based on some priority. The approach used in this
work is to categorize the different applications deployed in the
deployment platform as high priority and low priority ones.
The operational mode in the algorithm involves customer
arrival ruled by the distribution of inter arrival time according
to a poison process. The aggregate user request rate, R, is
defined by equation (1), where N is the number of different

The queue discipline is according to a priority with negligible
delay and the resources in the virtualized environment can be
modeled as M/G/1/PRIOR queue [14]. According to queuing
theory, total resource resident time by all the request served in
tier k is represented by qk/(1-qk), where qk is the resource
utilization in tier k. For an aggregate user request rate of R, the
mean resident time for applications with higher priority, Tsh
can be described as

Resource consumption for a typical application is proportional
to number of request. Let Dn represent the mean demand of
applications with higher priorities. Then resource consumption
by highest priority application, Mc, can be defined as a linear
function of user request rate.

The resource utilization by all the application in the virtualized
environment is defined as the ratio between the virtual
machine’s resource consumption and its effective resource
capacity. In the virtualized environment resource capacity is
dynamically modified. The utilization changes according to
the changes in allocation. Hence resource utilization is
modified as the ratio between resource consumption of the
virtual machine and resource allocation to the virtual machine.
Let Ma be the resource allocation, refers to the resource
capacity that is allocated to a virtual machine. Incorporating
the modification in (2),Tsh can be represented as

The modeling assumes applications with low priority are
available with maximum resources. Since priority inversion is
considered in the algorithm the modeling considers total
number of applications for the calculation resident time in this
case also. Mean resident time for applications with low
priority is represented by Tsl, can be approximated as (5),
where values of φn represent mean resident time for
applications with lower priorities. The value can be obtained
through model calibration. Combining (4) and (5) the mean
response time can be represented by aggregating resident
times over all resourses by higher priority and lower priority
applications. Thus once the values of average demand and
mean resident time for applications with lower priorities are
obtained, mean response time can be predicted from equation
(6).

The linear regression method is used to estimate the mean
demand from (3) and response time from equation (6) for a
given arrival rate of request. The estimate considered average
user request rate of 1800- 2400 per minute and a mean
response time target of 35ms to 45ms.
The measured values of MRT were compared with those
estimated using (6) for evaluation. The performance result in
the test for normal and high utilization of resources is depicted
along with estimated values in figure 6 and figure 7.The model
is valid for the present case as it captures the effect of resource
capacity, time varying demand and response with respect to
complexity in applications. The estimate considered the same
entitlement and user request rate as used in the test cases. The
error between the measured and estimated values of response
times for various cases is negligible. The result justified the
architectural performance.
The modeling used in the work is application oriented. The
model can predict the performance of the cloud environment
with various applications, running on the virtualized servers
having different computational needs. The modeling
considered here needs to include more parameters for a
complex networked structure. In such cases, advanced non
linear solution methods provide precise results than regression
method.
