BalCon — resource balancing algorithm for VM consolidation
Cloud providers handle substantial number of requests to create and delete virtual machines (VMs) on a daily basis, where the unknown sequence of requests eventually leads to resource fragmentation. To mitigate this issue, periodic consolidation of VMs into fewer number of physical hosts is an important cost-saving procedure, closely related to the ...

StopGap: elastic VMs to enhance server consolidation [PDF]
SummaryVirtualized cloud infrastructures (also known as IaaS platforms) generally rely on a server consolidation system to pack virtual machines (VMs) on as few servers as possible. However, an important limitation of consolidation is not addressed by such systems. Because the managed VMs may be of various sizes (small, medium, large, etc.), VM packing

Decomposed multi-objective bin-packing for virtual machine consolidation [PDF]
In this paper, we describe a novel solution to the problem of virtual machine (VM) consolidation, otherwise known as VM-Packing, as applicable to Infrastructure-as-a-Service cloud data centers. Our solution relies on the observation that virtual machines
