Mavromoustakis George Mastorakis Ciprian Dobre Editors Advances in Mobile Cloud Computing and Big Data in the 5G Era Studies in Big Data Volume 22 Series editor Janusz Kacprzyk, Polish Academy of Sciences, Warsaw, Poland e-mail: [email protected] About this Series The series “Studies in Big Data” (SBD) publishes new developments and advances in the various areas of Big Data-quickly and with a high quality. The intent is to cover the theory, research, development, and applications of Big Data, as embedded in the fields of engineering, computer science, physics, economics and life sciences. The books of the series refer to the analysis and understanding of large, complex, and/or distributed data sets generated from recent digital sources coming from sensors or other physical instruments as well as simulations, crowd sourcing, social networks or other internet transactions, such as emails or video click streams and other. The series contains monographs, lecture notes and edited volumes in Big Data spanning the areas of computational intelligence incl. neural networks, evolutionary computation, soft computing, fuzzy systems, as well as artificial intelligence, data mining, modern statistics and Operations research, as well as self-organizing systems. Of particular value to both the contributors and the readership are the short publication timeframe and the world-wide distribution, which enable both wide and rapid dissemination of research output.

Mavromoustakis, Ciprian Dobre and Jordi Mongay Batalla Abstract In the emerging 5G mobile computing environments, the need for cutting edge technologies regarding data transmission, storage and processing will be more critical than ever. In addition, handling of Big Data that is produced by Internet of Things (IoT) devices and extracting value out of it, is a real challenge for scientists and markets, towards providing extra profit to the society. In this context, this chapter aims to shortly present the correlation between Internet of Things and the expansion of Big Data. At first, a short reference to the evolution of IoT and Big Data is provided and their features are then introduced. In addition, the lifecycle of Big Data in IoT—from capturing to storage and analysis—is shortly described. Finally, two different approaches for the implementation of Big Data are presented, as well as issues in privacy and security are addressed.

    Linux Scheduler Documentation The kernel development community Jul 14, 2020 CONTENTS i ii CHAPTER ONE COMPLETIONS - “WAIT FOR COMPLETION”BARRIER APIS 1.1 Introduction: If you have one or more threads that must wait for some kernel activity to have reached a point or a specific state, completions can provide a race-free solution to this problem. Semantically they are somewhat like a pthread_barrier() and have similar use-cases. Completions are a code synchronization mechanism which is preferable to any misuse of locks/semaphores and busy-loops. Any time you think of using yield() or some quirky msleep(1) loop to allow something else to proceed, you probably want to look into using one of the wait_for_completion*() calls and complete() instead. The advantage of using completions is that they have a well defined, focused pur- pose which makes it very easy to see the intent of the code, but they also result in more efficient code as all threads can continue execution until the result isactually needed, and both the waiting and the signalling is highly efficient using low level scheduler sleep/wakeup facilities. Completions are built on top of the waitqueue and wakeup infrastructure of the Linux scheduler. The event the threads on the waitqueue are waiting for is reduced to a simple flag in ‘struct completion’, appropriately called “done”. As completions are scheduling related, the code can be found in ker- nel/sched/completion.c. 1.2 Usage: There are three main parts to using completions: • the initialization of the ‘struct completion’synchronization object • the waiting part through a call to one of the variants of wait_for_completion(), • the signaling side through a call to complete() or complete_all().

Among the various possibilities, the ERIKA Enterprise RTOS (Real-Time Operating System) and Linux with preemption patches have been selected. A description of the porting effort on the reference architecture has also been provided. 7.1 Introduction In the past, OSs for high-performance computing (HPC) were based on custom-tailored solutions to fully exploit all performance opportunities of supercomputers. Nowadays, instead, HPC systems are being moved away from in-house OSs to more generic OS solutions like Linux. Such a trend can be observed in the TOP500 list [1] that includes the 500 most powerful supercomputers in the world, in which Linux dominates the competition. In fact, in around 20 years, Linux has been capable of conquering all the TOP500 list from scratch (for the first time in November 2017). Each manufacturer, however, still implements specific changes to the Linux OS to better exploit specific computer hardware features. This is especially true in the case of computing nodes in which lightweight kernels are used to speed up the computation. 173 174 Embedded Operating Systems Figure 7.1 Number of Linux-based supercomputers in the TOP500 list.

  • Toward a Low-Latency and Cooperative Radio Access Network

Unlike a Ph.D. thesis, a HR thesis does not aim at providing a detailed description of a particular research problematic, but rather describes the various facets of responsibilities that I experienced as researcher and assistant professor since I obtained my Ph.D. My post-doctoral career started at Eurecom in January 2004, after having completed my Ph.D. entitled “Architecture and protocols for supporting routing and quality of service for mobile ad hoc networks” at Ecole´ Polytechnique Fed´ erale´ de Lausanne EPFL, Switzerland in September 2003. After the postdoc, I joined the founding team of a startup company in Sophia-Antipolis, France, working towards a range of intelligent wireless backhaul routing products for private and public networks. Four years later, I deliberately chose to join Eurecom as an assistant pro- fessor because of the experimental platform OpenAirInterface, which allowed me to work on practical aspects of wireless access network. This means working on aspects that are sometimes overlooked or not found interesting or even old fashioned by other researchers, or collecting and analyzing data from experiments to prove a concept or a point.

  • Allocation and Control of Computing Resources for Real-Time Virtual Network Functions
    ICN 2018 : The Seventeenth International Conference on Networks Allocation and Control of Computing Resources for Real-time Virtual Network Functions Mauro Marinoni, Tommaso Cucinotta Carlo Vitucci and Luca Abeni Ericsson Scuola Superiore Sant’Anna Stockholm, Sweden Pisa, Italy Email: [email protected] Email: [email protected] Abstract—Upcoming 5G mobile networks strongly rely on Software-Defined Networking and Network Function Virtualiza- tion that allow exploiting the flexibility in resource allocation provided by the underlying virtualized infrastructures. These paradigms often employ platform abstractions designed for cloud applications which have not to deal with the stringent timing constraints characterizing virtualized network functions. On the other hand, various techniques exist to provide advanced, predictable scheduling of multiple run-time environments, e.g., containers, within virtualized hosts. In order to let high-level resource management layers take advantage of these techniques, this paper proposes to extend network service descriptors and the Virtualization Infrastructure Manager. This enables Network Function Virtualization orchestrators to deploy components ex- Figure 1. 5G network management proposed by the NGMN Alliance. ploiting real-time processor scheduling at the hypervisor or host OS level, for enhanced stability of the provided performance.
