Abstract—Existing and future media ecosystems need to cope with the ever-increasing heterogeneity of networks, devices, and user characteristics collectively referred to as (usage) context. The key to address this problem is media adaptation to various and dynamically changing contexts in order

, ever-increasing heterogeneity and variability of the environment poses even harder challenges for both parties.This paper reviews certain papers on resource management and job scheduling in cloud computing.

solution to deal with the ever increasing heterogeneity characterizing today’s datacenters. However, a number of enterprise-class system management products, like Nagios, are not compliant with this standard. Nagios is among the top open source monitoring tools with the power of a large community

Portable, embedded systems place ever-increasing demands on high-performance, low-power microprocessor design. Dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) is a well-known technique to reduce energy in digital systems, but the effectiveness of DVFS is hampered by slow voltage transitions that occur

As software systems become more complex, it becomes economically desirable to re-use existing pieces (or components) of software. Similarly, with the expanding space of applications, together with the ever-increasing ubiquity and mobility of devices, there is an ever-greater need for software which

abandonment turned out to be worrisome. The ever increasing heterogenity challenged the local identity survival and progress. The local social values, norms, and community spirit faced serious challenges. Despite its negative aspects, urbanization impacted availability of infrastructures and social amenities

With ever increasing Web traffic, a distributed multi-server Web site can provide scalability and flexibility to cope with growing client demands. Load balancing algorithms to spread the requests across multiple Web servers are crucial to achieve the scalability. Various domain name server (DNS

Abstract—With the exponential increase in mobile internet traffic driven by a new generation of wireless devices, future cellular networks face a great challenge to meet this overwhelming demand of network capacity. At the same time, the demand for higher data rates and the ever-increasing number
