The purposes of this study were to examine: 1) supporting activities of fashion brands for store-level visual merchandising(VM); 2) shop masters' attitude to VM supporting activities; 3) the differences in the perceived importance of VM, attitude to VM supporting activities, and shop masters' VM management by shop master characteristics; and 4) the influencing factors on shop masters' VM management. A total of 203 questionnaires collected from shop masters working for women's wear fashion brands were analyzed. Results revealed that VM manual was used most often as a VM supporting activity, and casual brands offered VM training and professional VM help more often than designer brands did. Shop masters' attitude toward necessity, participation and usefulness to VM supporting activities were related to each other as well as to the perceived importance of VM. There were differences in the perceived importance of VM and attitude to VM supporting activities by age and sales career and in the VM management by income. Brand knowledge, the perceived importance of VM, and participation to VM supporting activities affected VM management of shop masters.

The study is related to the synthesis of acrylic acid by selective oxidation of acrolein on Mo-V-W multicomponent mixed oxide catalysts. Mo-V-W-O(WVM), Mo-V-O/Mo-W-O(VM/WM), Mo-W-O/Mo-V-O(WM/VM) and mechanical mixtures of Mo-V-O and Mo-W-O(M-VM+WM) were prepared and characterized by BET, XRD, SEM and EPMA. Catalytic activity of these catalysts was tested in a continuous fixed bed reactor. In WVM catalysts small amount of tungsten added to VM increased surface area and selectivity of acrylic acid, but excess amount of tungsten decreased reaction rate of acrolein and selectivity. VM/WM catalysts, VM supported on WM, showed higher activity and selectivity than WM/VM catalysts where WM is supported on VM. Phase cooperation between WM and VM was observed in mechanical mixture of WM and VM and they showed higher yield than WM or VM.

In this paper, we propose a virtual machine(VM) remapping scheme that reduces VM relocation time on a cloud cluster. The proposed scheme finds VMs that should be migrated in sequence from a given VM map, and exchanges destinations of some VMs among them to reduce the VM relocation time. The VMs, the destinations of which will be exchanged, are chosen based on the amount of physical machine's available resources and migration completion time. The exchange of destinations is repeated until the VM relocation time cannot be shortened any further. Through a simulation, we show that the proposed scheme reduces VM relocation time by 42.7% in maximum.

This paper presents an effective management of VM (Virtual Machine) for heterogeneous cloud using Common Deployment Model (CDM) brokering mechanism. The effective utilization of VM is achieved by means of task scheduling with VM placement technique. The placements of VM for the physical machine are analyzed with respect to execution time of the task. The idle time of the VMis utilized productively in order to improve the performance. The VMs are also scheduled to maintain the state of the current VM after the task completion. CDM based algorithm maintains two directories namely Active Directory (AD) and Passive Directory (PD). These directories maintain VM with proper configuration mapping of the physical machines to perform two operations namely VM migration and VM roll back. VM migration operation is performed from AD to PD whereas VM roll back operation is performed from PD to AD. The main objectives of the proposed algorithm is to manage the VM's idle time effectively and to maximize the utilization of resources at the data center. The VM placement and VM scheduling algorithms are analyzed in various dimensions of the cloud and the results are compared with iCanCloud model.

In the centralized cloud controlled environment, the decision-making and monitoring play crucial role where in the host controller (HC) manages the resources across hosts in data center (DC). HC does virtual machine (VM) and physical hosts management. The VM management includes VM creation, monitoring, and migration. If HC down, the services hosted by various hosts in DC can't be accessed outside the DC. Decentralized VM management avoids centralized failure by considering one of the hosts from DC as HC that helps in maintaining DC in running state. Each host in DC has many VM's with the threshold limit beyond which it can't provide service. To maintain threshold, the host's in DC does VM migration across various hosts. The data in migration is in the form of plaintext, the intruder can analyze packet movement and can control hosts traffic. The incorporation of security mechanism on hosts in DC helps protecting data in migration. This paper discusses an approach for dynamic HC selection, VM selection and secure VM migration over cloud environment.

In cloud computing, server virtualization supports one or more virtual machines loaded on multiple operating systems on a single physical host server. Migration of a VM is moving the VM running on a source host to another physical machine called target host. A VM live migration is essential to support task performance optimization, energy efficiency and energy saving, fault tolerance and load balancing. In this paper, we propose open source based adaptive VM live migration technique. For this, we design VM monitoring module to decide VM live migration and open source based full-virtualization hypervisor.

With the massive demand and growth of cloud computing, virtualization plays an important role in providing services to end-users efficiently. However, with the increase in services over Cloud Computing, it is becoming more challenging to manage and run multiple Virtual Machines (VMs) in Cloud Computing because of excessive power consumption. It is thus important to overcome these challenges by adopting an efficient technique to manage and monitor the status of VMs in a cloud environment. Reduction of power/energy consumption can be done by managing VMs more effectively in the datacenters of the cloud environment by switching between the active and inactive states of a VM. As a result, energy consumption reduces carbon emissions, leading to green cloud computing. The proposed Efficient Dynamic VM Scheduling approach minimizes Service Level Agreement (SLA) violations and manages VM migration by lowering the energy consumption effectively along with the balanced load. In the proposed work, VM Scheduling for Efficient Dynamically Migrated VM (VMS-EDMVM) approach first detects the over-utilized host using the Modified Weighted Linear Regression (MWLR) algorithm and along with the dynamic utilization model for an underutilized host. Maximum Power Reduction and Reduced Time (MPRRT) approach has been developed for the VM selection followed by a two-phase Best-Fit CPU, BW (BFCB) VM Scheduling mechanism which is simulated in CloudSim based on the adaptive utilization threshold base. The proposed work achieved a Power consumption of 108.45 kWh, and the total SLA violation was 0.1%. The VM migration count was reduced to 2,202 times, revealing better performance as compared to other methods mentioned in this paper.

가상화는 가상의 자원이 물리적 자원에 접근할 수 있게 해주는 기술이며 VM(가상머신)을 다수 설치하여 VM의 수만큼 운영체제들을 이용할 수 있다. 이러한 가상화는 자원의 낭비를 막고 관리비용을 줄이기 위해 사용한다. 가상화 기술은 CPU, 메모리, I/O 가상화로 구분 지을 수 있으며 이 중 메모리 가상화 기술은 메모리 자원의 효율적인 사용을 가능하게 해준다. 여러 VM들이 실제 머신의 메모리보다 많은 메모리를 할당받아 사용하는 것이 가능한데 이것을 오버커밋 상태라고 한다. 중첩 가상화는 VM에 하드웨어 가상화 기법의 사용을 허용하게 하여 VM 위에 또 다른 VM이 동작할 수 있는 환경을 제공해준다. 이와 같은 (중첩) 가상화 환경에서의 메모리 접근은 일반적으로 하드웨어 지원을 통한 중첩 페이징 기법을 이용하여 메모리의 접근이 이루어진다. 본 논문에서는 오버커밋 발생 시 중첩 VM과 하이퍼바이저 VM의 성능 차이를 실험을 통하여 보여주고자 한다.
