Projects involved

• Future Internet and Research Experimentation Simulator (FireSim). In our efforts to develop sustainable mechanisms for the overall governance of large infrastructures, we provide a set of tools to analyze traces from CoMon, a monitoring infrastructure deployed in PlanetLab. Our preliminary results are under review and we plan to provide a complete simulator. Meanwhile, you can check out here the python code used to parse, organize, aggregate and pre-process the CoMon datasets (documentation is on its way...).


• Grid Market Simulator (GMS). The Grid Market Simulator (GMS) is an economic simulator based on Gridsim to support flexible modelling of grid infrastructures to study the behaviour of the computational economy in the global scope. This work was part of my MSc thesis.


• Currency Management System (CMS). The Currency Management System is a decentralized banking infrastructure to support economics-inspired resource allocation in open and shared infrastructures and peer-to-peer systems. Its motivation is two-fold: a) provide the means to self-regulate and account for resource exchanges to ensure the stability and fairness of the infrastructure. b) provide and enhanced peer-to-peer storage middleware to support ACID transactions in a dynamic overlay network. This work was part of my final degree project.


• Grid Market Middleware (GMM). The Grid Market Middleware (GMM) is an economic based grid resource management middleware. It offers an open platform that supports the implementation of diverse economic based resource allocation mechanisms, offering a set of basic mechanisms that facilitate its implementation.
