Green Metascheduler Architecture to Provide QoS in Cloud Computing

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to propose and evaluate GreenMACC (Green Metascheduler Architecture to Provide QoS in Cloud Computing), an extension of the MACC architecture (Metascheduler Architecture to provide QoS in Cloud Computing) which uses greenIT techniques to provide Quality of Service. The paper provides an evaluation of the performance of the policies in the four stages of scheduling focused on energy consumption and average response time. The results presented confirm the consistency of the proposal as it controls energy consumption and the quality of services requested by different users of a large-scale private cloud.
