- Additional information
- ORIGINALITY: The work breaks new ground in considering network policies and their impact on traffic performance, combined with the typical allocation strategies for data centres to optimise certain resources (e.g., energy, CPU, bandwidth, etc.). SIGNIFICANCE: the work reports key results from EPSRC project EP/L005255/1 and appeared in the top IEEE conference on Computer Communications. It formed the basis for successful follow-up EPSRC project EP/N033957/1. RIGOUR: We have proved the synergistic consolidation problem to be NP-complete, devised a heuristic solution, and evaluated its effectiveness (in terms of VM migration overhead, traffic flow performance, and policy violations) using large-scale simulation.
