Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Cloud computing is an emerging field in computer science. Users are utilizing less of their own existing resources, while increasing usage of cloud resources. There are many advantages of distributed computing over centralized architecture. With increase in number of unused storage and computing resources and advantages of distributed computing resulted in distributed cloud computing. In the distributed cloud environment that we propose, resource providers (RP) compete to provide resources to the users. In the distributed cloud all the cloud computing and storage services are offered by distributed resources. In this architecture resources are used and provided by the users in a peer to peer fashion. We propose using multi-valued distributed hash tables for efficient resource discovery. Leveraging the fact that there are many users providing resources such as CPU and memory, we define these resources under one key to easily locate devices with equivalent resources. We have evaluated the performance of resource discovery mechanisms for the distributed cloud and distributed cloud storage and compared the results with existing DHTs, peer to peer clients such as VUZE [1] and explored the feasibility and efficiency of the proposed schemes in terms of resource/service discovery and allocation. We use a simultaneous Auction mechanism and select a set of winners once we receive all contributions or bids. In a real world scenario, users request resources with multiple capabilities, and in order to find such resources we use a contribution mechanism where service providers will provide a contribution price to users for providing a resource. Users use our proposed auction mechanism to select the resources from the set of resource providers. We show that Nash equilibrium can be achieved and how we can avoid the problem of free riders in the distributed cloud.
