Virtual Machine Migration Techniques for Optimizing Energy Consumption in Cloud Data Centers

IEEE Access, 2023
The energy used by cloud data centers (CDCs) to support large volumes of data storage and computation is dramatically increasing as the scope of cloud services continues to expand.

Selection strategies for randomly partitioned genetic replicators [PDF]

, 2019
The amplification cycle of many replicators (natural or artificial) involves the usage of a host compartment, inside of which the replicator express phenotypic compounds necessary to carry out its genetic replication.

Genomic signatures of host-associated divergence and adaptation in a coral-eating snail, Coralliophila violacea (Kiener, 1836). [PDF]

, 2020
The fluid nature of the ocean, combined with planktonic dispersal of marine larvae, lowers physical barriers to gene flow. However, divergence can still occur despite gene flow if strong selection acts on populations occupying different ecological niches.

Dinocampus coccinellae (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) utilizes both Coccinellini and Chilocorini (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae: Coccinellinae) as hosts in Kashmir Himalayas

European Journal of Entomology, 2018
Dinocampus coccinellae is a parasitoid wasp usually parasitizing ladybird beetles of the tribe Coccinellini. A field survey conducted between March and November 2016 revealed three hosts of this parasitoid in the Srinagar district of the Indian state of ...

The impact of a vertically transmitted microsporidian, Nosema granulosis on the fitness of its Gammarus duebeni host under stressful environmental conditions [PDF]

, 2003
Although purely vertically transmitted parasites are predicted to cause low pathogenicity in their hosts, the effects of such parasites on host fitness under stressful environmental conditions have not previously been assessed.

Population gene introgression and high genome plasticity for the zoonotic pathogen Streptococcus agalactiae [PDF]

, 2019
The influence that bacterial adaptation (or niche partitioning) within species has on gene spillover and transmission among bacteria populations occupying different niches is not well understood.

Mind the Wound!—Fruit Injury Ranks Higher than, and Interacts with, Heterospecific Cues for Drosophila suzukii Oviposition

Insects, 2021
Drosophila suzukii is a globally distributed insect that infests many economically important fruit varieties by ovipositing into ripening fruits.

The cost of phage resistance in a plant pathogenic bacterium is context-dependent. [PDF]

, 2015
Parasites are ubiquitous features of living systems and many parasites severely reduce the fecundity or longevity of their hosts. This parasite-imposed selection on host populations should strongly favor the evolution of host resistance, but hosts ...

Host Selection of Microbiota via Differential Adhesion [PDF]

Cell Host & Microbe, 2016
The host epithelium is the critical interface with microbial communities, but the mechanisms by which the host regulates these communities are poorly understood. Here we develop the hypothesis that hosts use differential adhesion to select for and against particular members of their microbiota.
