Paper Abstract:
|
Pervasive environments are characterized by a large number of resources and services that are used by applications to
perform tasks of the user. The availability of these resources is often limited by physical constraints, such as
computational capacity, available memory, or bandwidth. Moreover, pervasive environments enable user-centric
applications where user goals and requirements play a significant role, e.g. in adaptation or performance of an
application. Therefore, these applications are restricted by user needs in addition to resource-related constraints.
In this paper, we focus on applications which are composed from a set of individual components running on networking
hosts. We propose an evolutionary-based algorithm (EA) for allocation of these applications into hosts. We report
preliminary results on testing performance and suitability of the algorithm on randomly generated design models. We
demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is stable and robust and evaluate performance of the algorithm against a wellknown
greedy method. |
