Contemporary mobile devices generate heavy loads of computationally intensive tasks,
which cannot be executed locally due to the limited processing and energy capabilities of …

In recent years, the question of the energy consumption of data centers has become more
and more important, and several studies raised the possibility of using renewable energy to …

In the Green Cloudlet Network (GCN) architecture, each User Equipment (UE) is associated
with an Avatar (a private virtual machine for executing its UE's offloaded tasks) in a cloudlet …

In the last few years, SDN and NFV have been introduced with the potential to change the
ossified Internet paradigm, with the final goal of creating a more agile and flexible network …

With the massive adoption of cloud-based services, high energy consumption and carbon
footprint of cloud infrastructures have become a major concern in the IT industry …

In cloud radio access networks (C-RAN), more accurate prediction of the number of virtual
machines (VMs) one server can support would improve network capacity and energy …

In this paper, we present a set of power-aware dynamic allocators for virtual machines (VMs)
in cloud data centers (DCs) taking advantage of the software defined networking paradigm …

We propose a Green Cloudlet Network (GCN) architecture to provide seamless Mobile
Cloud Computing (MCC) services to User Equipments (UEs) with low latency in which each …

Distributed clouds have recently attracted many cloud providers and researchers as a topic
of intensive interest. High energy costs and carbon emissions are two significant problems in …

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) facilitates the provisioning of virtual machines (VMs) in
