M. Garcia-Valls, T. Cucinotta, C. Lu. "Challenges in Real-Time Virtualization and Predictable Cloud Computing," in Elsevier Journal of Systems Architecture, 2014, DOI: 10.1016/j.sysarc.2014.07.004.
Cloud computing and virtualization technology have revolutionized general-purpose com- puting applications in the past decade. The cloud paradigm offers advantages through reduc- tion of operation costs, server consolidation, flexible system configuration and elastic resource provisioning. However, despite the success of cloud computing for general-purpose computing, existing cloud computing and virtualization technology face tremendous challenges in supporting emerging soft real-time applications such as online video streaming, cloud-based gaming, and telecommunication management. These applications demand real-time performance in an open, shared and virtualized computing environments. This paper identifies the technical challenges in supporting real-time applications in the cloud, surveys recent advancement in real-time virtualization and cloud computing technology, and offers research directions to enable cloud-based real-time applications in the future.
