Abstract

The increasing demands on the usage of data centers especially in provisioning cloud applications (i.e. data-intensive applications) have drastically increased the energy consumption and becoming a critical issue. Failing to handle the increasing in energy consumption leads to the negative impact on the environment, and also negatively affecting the cloud providers’ profits due to increasing costs. Various surveys have been carried out to address and classify energy-aware approaches and solutions. As an active research area with increasing number of proposals, more surveys are needed to support researchers in the research area. Thus, in this paper, we intend to provide the current state of existing related surveys that serve as a guideline for the researchers as well as the potential reviewers to embark into a new concern and dimension to compliment existing related surveys. Our review highlights four main topics and concludes to some recommendations for the future survey.

Abstract

The ability to ensure an optimal decision is significant for self-adaptive systems especially when dealing with uncertainty. For this reason, a synthesis-driven approach can be used to capture and synthesize a decision that aims to satisfy the multi-objective properties. Assessing the quality of the synthesis-driven approach is challenging, since it involves a set of activities from modeling, simulating, and analyzing the outcomes. This paper presents the design and implementation of a graphical user interface (GUI)-based prototype for assessing synthesis outcome and performance of an adaptation decision. The prototype is designed and developed based on the component-based development approach that is able to integrate the existing and related libraries from PRISM-games model checker for the synthesis engine, JFreeChart libraries for the chart presentation, and Java Universal Network/Graph Framework libraries for the graph visualization. This paper also presents the implementation of the proposed prototype based on the cloud application deployment scenario to illustrate its applicability. This work contributes to provide a fundamental work towards automated synthesis for self-adaptive systems.
