Hypervisor /Simulator

Shribman et al. [91]-2013

Improve Memory-intensive applications performance

Use RDMA stack to reduce the latency of faulty memory pages and pre-paging approach to reduce VM memory size and fasten the VM migration process

Improved total migration time, optimized downtime, and application degradation time

KVM and QEMU

Cerroni [92]-2014

Evaluate the performance for inter cloud data center for cloud federation

Characterizing the VM group migration time for the sequential and parallel migration strategies and use Markovian model of Inter DC network

Parallel migration results in reduced service downtime compared to sequential migration

Mathematical modeling
