Smart Home Architecture is suitable for progressive and symmetric urbanization. Data being generated in smart home appliances using internet of things should be stored in cloud where computing resources can analyze the data and generate the decisive pattern within no time. This additional requirement of storage, majorly, comprising of unfiltered data escalates requirement of host machines which carries with itself extra overhead of energy consumption; thus, extra cost has to be beard by service providers. Various static algorithms are already proposed to improve energy management of cloud data centers by reducing number of active bins. These algorithms are not able to cater to the needs of present heterogeneous requests generated in cloud machines by people of diversified work environment with adhering to the requirements of quality parameters. Therefore, the paper has proposed and implemented dynamic bin-packing approaches for smart architecture that can significantly reduce energy consumption without compromising upon makespan, resource utilization and Quality of Service (QoS) parameters. The novelty of the proposed dynamic approaches in comparison to the existing static approaches is that the proposed approach dynamically creates and dissolves virtual machines as per incoming and completed requests which is a dire need of present computing paradigms via attachment of time-frame with each virtual machine. The simulations have been performed on JAVA platform and dynamic energy utilized-best fit decreasing bin packing technique has produced better results in maximum runs.

The main cause of energy wastage in cloud data centres is the low level of server utilization. Low server utilization is a consequence of allocating more resources than required for running applications. For instance, in Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) public clouds, cloud service providers (CSPs) deliver computing resources in the form of virtual machines (VMs) templates, which the cloud users have to choose from. More often, inexperienced cloud users tend to choose bigger VMs than their application requirements. To address the problem of inefficient resources utilization, the existing approaches focus on VM allocation and migration, which only leads to physical machine (PM) level optimization. Other approaches use horizontal auto-scaling, which is not a visible solution in the case of IaaS public cloud. In this paper, we propose an approach of customizing user VM’s size to match the resources requirements of their application workloads based on an analysis of real backend traces collected from a VM in a production data centre. In this approach, a VM is given fixed size resources that match applications workload demands and any demand that exceeds the fixed resource allocation is predicted and handled through vertical VM auto-scaling. In this approach, energy consumption by PMs is reduced through efficient resource utilization. Experimental results obtained from a simulation on CloudSim Plus using GWA-T-13 Materna real backend traces shows that data center energy consumption can be reduced via efficient resource utilization

With the increasing size of cloud data centers, the number of users and virtual machines (VMs) increases rapidly. The requests of users are entertained by VMs residing on physical servers. The dramatic growth of internet services results in unbalanced network resources. Resource management is an important factor for the performance of a cloud. Various techniques are used to manage the resources of a cloud efficiently. VM-consolidation is an intelligent and efficient strategy to balance the load of cloud data centers. VM-placement is an important subproblem of the VM-consolidation problem that needs to be resolved. The basic objective of VM-placement is to minimize the utilization rate of physical machines (PMs). VM-placement is used to save energy and cost. An enhanced levy-based particle swarm optimization algorithm with variable sized bin packing (PSOLBP) is proposed for solving the VM-placement problem. Moreover, the best-fit strategy is also used with the variable sized bin packing problem (VSBPP). Simulations are done to authenticate the adaptivity of the proposed algorithm. Three algorithms are implemented in Matlab. The given algorithm is compared with simple particle swarm optimization (PSO) and a hybrid of levy flight and particle swarm optimization (LFPSO). The proposed algorithm efficiently minimized the number of running PMs. VM-consolidation is an NP-hard problem, however, the proposed algorithm outperformed the other two algorithms.

Cloud computing environment is regarded as a kind of multi-tenant computing mode. With virtulization as a support technology, cloud computing realizes the integration of multiple workloads in one server through the package and seperation of virtual machines. Aiming at the contradiction between the heterogeneous applications and uniform shared resource pool, using the idea of bin packing, the multidimensional resource scheduling problem is analyzed in this paper. We carry out some example analysis in one-dimensional resource scheduling, two-dimensional resource schduling and three-dimensional resource scheduling. The results shows that the resource utilization of cloud data centers will be improved greatly when the resource sheduling is conducted after reorganizing rationally the heterogeneous demands.

Energy management of the cloud datacentre is a challenging task, especially when the cloud server receives a number of the user’s request simultaneously. This requires an efficient method to optimally allocate the resources to the users. Resource allocation in cloud data centers need to be done in optimized manner for conserving energy keeping in view of Service Level Agreement (SLA). We propose, Eagle Strategy (ES) based Modified Particle Swarm Optimization (ES-MPSO) to minimize the energy consumption and SLA violation. The Eagle Strategy method is applied due to its efficient local optimization technique. The Cauchy Mutation method which schedules the task effectively and minimize energy consumption, is applied to the proposed ES-MPSO method for improving the convergence performance. The simulation result shows that the energy consumption of ES-MPSO is 42J and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is 51J. The proposed method ES-MPSO achieves higher efficiency compared to the PSO method in terms of energy management and SLA.

High-energy consumption in data centers has become a critical issue. The dynamic server consolidation has significant effects on saving energy of a data center. An effective way to consolidate virtual machines is to migrate virtual machines in real time so that some light load physical machines can be turned off or switched to low-power mode. The present challenge is to reduce the energy consumption of cloud data centers. In this paper, for the first time, a server consolidation algorithm based on the culture multiple-ant-colony algorithm was proposed for dynamic execution of virtual machine migration, thus reducing the energy consumption of cloud data centers. The server consolidation algorithm based on the culture multiple-ant-colony algorithm (CMACA) finds an approximate optimal solution through a specific target function. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm not only reduces the energy consumption but also reduces the number of virtual machine migration.

Abstract The popularity of smart home equipment has led to higher requirements for equipment automation operation and maintenance. However, the energy consumption status and hidden faults of household equipment cannot be controlled in time only by using traditional monitoring methods. Therefore, this paper proposes a methods of power analysis for smart home appliances based on SSA-TCN using the energy consumption data of smart home appliances. The effective information of the data is extracted through the SSA singular spectrum analysis method, and the data sequence is input into the sequential convolutional network for judgment, so that the energy consumption status and working status of the equipment is obtained. The actual data is used as the training set and the test set to verify the recognition rate of the model. The experimental results show that the recognition rate of the method is about 82%, which provides an effective way for equipment automation and intelligent operation and maintenance.

The flourishing development of the cloud computing paradigm provides several services in the industrial business world. Power consumption by cloud data centers is one of the crucial issues for service providers in the domain of cloud computing. Pursuant to the rapid technology enhancements in cloud environments and data centers augmentations, power utilization in data centers is expected to grow unabated. A diverse set of numerous connected devices, engaged with the ubiquitous cloud, results in unprecedented power utilization by the data centers, accompanied by increased carbon footprints. Nearly a million physical machines (PM) are running all over the data centers, along with (5 – 6) million virtual machines (VM). In the next five years, the power needs of this domain are expected to spiral up to 5% of global power production. The virtual machine power consumption reduction impacts the diminishing of the PM’s power, however further changing in power consumption of data center year by year, to aid the cloud vendors using prediction methods. The sudden fluctuation in power utilization will cause power outage in the cloud data centers. This paper aims to forecast the VM power consumption with the help of regressive predictive analysis, one of the Machine Learning (ML) techniques. The potency of this approach to make better predictions of future value, using Multi-layer Perceptron (MLP) regressor which provides 91% of accuracy during the prediction process.

Cloud computing is a platform where services are provided through the internet either free of cost or rent basis. Many cloud service providers (CSP) offer cloud services on the rental basis. Due to increasing demand for cloud services, the existing infrastructure needs to be scale. However, the scaling comes at the cost of heavy energy consumption due to the inclusion of a number of data centers, and servers. The extraneous power consumption affects the operating costs, which in turn, affects its users. In addition, CO2 emissions affect the environment as well. Moreover, inadequate allocation of resources like servers, data centers, and virtual machines increases operational costs. This may ultimately lead to customer distraction from the cloud service. In all, an optimal usage of the resources is required. This paper proposes to calculate different multi-objective functions to find the optimal solution for resource utilization and their allocation through an improved Antlion (ALO) algorithm. The proposed method simulated in cloudsim environments, and compute energy consumption for different workloads quantity and it increases the performance of different multi-objectives functions to maximize the resource utilization. It compared with existing frameworks and experiment results shows that the proposed framework performs utmost.
