Abstract:
This paper discusses the approaches for a Virtual Machine optimized for executing in Cloud environment. The optimization concerns with I/O operations, memory management, and job scheduling. We address the problem of development of software using the provided Cloud environment. Our first contribution is the re-modeling of existing frameworks for traditional distributed storage systems. The second contribution is the introduction of job scheduling framework as a standard component in the system for developing event-based solutions; since the resulting framework is generic, we show how to use it in managing the data through sample problems. Consequently, we contribute to the design of a library of proof-based developed algorithms.
