Resource virtualization has become one of the key super-power mobile computing architecture technologies. As mobile devices and multimedia traffic have increased dramatically, the load on mobile cloud computing systems has become heavier. Under such conditions, mobile cloud system reliability becomes a challenging task. In this paper, we propose a new model using a naive Bayes classifier for hypervisor failure prediction and prevention in mobile cloud computing. We exploit real-time monitoring data in combination with historical maintenance data, which achieves higher accuracy in failure prediction and early failure-risk detection. After detecting hypervisors at risk, we perform live migration of virtual servers within a cluster, which decreases the load and prevents failures in the cloud. We performed a simulation for verification. According to the experimental results, our proposed model shows good accuracy in failure prediction and the possibility of decreasing downtime in a hypervisor service.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
