Design and Implementation of Datacenter Protocols for Cloud Computing. Alex X Liu

This unique compendium focuses on the design and implementation of emerging transport protocols and task scheduling mechanisms to mitigate congestion in datacentre networks. Datacenters have become a critical infrastructure for hosting user-facing online services such as web search and social networking.For datacenter transport, this volume highlights the design and implementation details of the state-of-art transport protocols that not only achieves optimal performance in terms of minimizing flow completion times but are also deployment friendly.Moreover, this must-have reference material also discusses the transport protocols for multi-tenant datacentre networks. For datacenter task scheduling, the book introduces an innovative task placement framework that considers network scheduling while making task placement decisions.<b>Contents:</b> <ul><li>Preface</li><li>Background and Motivation</li><li>Overview of Prior Solutions</li><li>A Near-Optimal Transport for Datacenters</li><li>Task Placement in Datacenters</li><li>Bandwidth Allocation in Multi-tenant Datacenters</li><li>Bibliography</li><li>Index</li></ul><br><b>Readership:</b> Professionals, researchers, academics, and graduate students in computer engineering, neural networks, and computer maths and science.
