    摘要: The disclosed embodiments illustrate method and system for information retrieval for a spatial region. The method includes receiving a query that comprises a first entity selection criteria, a second entity selection criteria, and a count of entities. The method further includes identifying a node, from a set of nodes at a level of a hierarchal database, having a bounding box, which satisfies the first entity selection criteria, wherein the node comprises at least a first array, wherein the first array comprises one or more second pointer values. The method further includes identifying a second pointer value from the one or more second pointer values that satisfies the second entity selection criteria, wherein the identified second pointer value is associated with a second array. Further, the method includes retrieving a subset of entities from a set of entities in the second array based on the count of entities in the query.

    摘要: A method and system of cost determination of one or more computational resources is described. The method receives a first information pertaining to one or more available computational resources from one or more resource providers and further receives one or more requests pertaining to one or more required computational resources from one or more requestors. Based on at least a comparison of the first information and the second information and a first cost and a second cost associated with the one or more required computational resources in a previous time epoch, the disclosed method determines, in a current time epoch, a first cost offered to the one or more requestors for the one or more required computational resources and a second cost offered to the one or more resource providers for providing the one or more required computational resources.

    摘要: A method and system to determine a computational resource requirement is described. The method and system rank one or more computational resources for each of the plurality of tasks in an ascending order, based on a cost associated with the plurality of tasks for each of the computational resource. Based on the ranked one or more computational resources and a fairness metric, the method and system allocates the one or more capacity units associated with the computational resource to perform the plurality of tasks. The method and system determines the computational resource requirement to perform the plurality of tasks based on the allocated one or more capacity units. The fairness metric ensures that allocation of the one or more capacity units to the plurality of tasks is performed in a manner to maximize the fairness.

    摘要: Methods and systems for computational resource allocation in a distributed computing environment are disclosed. A request for computational resource allocation is received at a first computational node. The request comprises at least a threshold value of an expected reliability associated with a set of required computational resources. The availability of one or more computational resources from the set of required computational resources is determined at the first computational node. Based on the determined availability of the one or more computational resources, a first reliability score of the first computational node is determined. Further, the first reliability score is compared with the threshold value of expected reliability. Based on the comparison, the one or more computational resources are allocated to process the request.

    摘要: Methods and systems for sharing computational resources. A request from a first node is received for the one or more computational resources. The request comprises a service level agreement (SLA) associated with the requested one or more computational resources. The request is compared with one or more advertisements sent by at least two second nodes, other than the first node. The one or more advertisements correspond to an availability of a set of computational resources associated with each of the at least two second nodes. A portion of computational resources from the set of computational resources associated with each of the at least two second nodes is allocated to the first node, based on the comparison, such that a combination of the portion of computational resources satisfy the SLA associated with the request.

    摘要: Methods and systems are disclosed for providing cloud services to multiple customers in a cloud. One embodiment includes receiving a number of requests for the cloud services from the multiple customers simultaneously or substantially simultaneously; prioritizing the requests based on a probability distribution of actually deploying a service, a budget of the customers, and an expected demand of the requested service based on the probability distribution; generating a number of cloud configurations along with a number of Service Level Agreements (SLAs) for the customers based on prioritization of the requests, a class & past behavior of the customers, and a current demand of the cloud services, the SLAs of the customers include differentiated price offering; recommending the cloud configurations and the SLAs to the customers; allowing the customers to negotiate terms of the SLAs; and providing the cloud services based on the negotiated SLAs to the customers.

    摘要: A method provides a recommendation for a cloud configuration for deploying a service. In response to receiving a service request, a database is searched for a cloud configuration. The search is performed by acquiring a resource usage pattern for the service. The resource usage pattern is mapped to a multidimensional space, which is searched for a previously deployed cloud configuration having a similar resource usage pattern. In response to finding a previously deployed cloud configuration, the activity management is determined for the previously deployed cloud configuration. A recommendation is made based on the activity management.

    摘要: Methods and systems for creating one or more statistical classifiers. A first set of performance parameters, corresponding to the one or more applications and the one or more computing infrastructures, is extracted from a historical data pertaining to the execution of the one or more applications on the one or more computing infrastructures. Further, a set of application-specific and a set of infrastructure-specific parameters are selected, from the first set of performance parameters, based on one or more statistical techniques. A similarity between each pair of the applications, each pair of the computing infrastructures, and each pair of possible combinations of an application and a computing infrastructure is determined. One or more statistical classifiers are created, based on the determined similarity.
