An intelligent load balancer for software defined networking (SDN) based cloud infrastructure
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Cloud technology is an emerging distributed computing paradigm. It provides Cloud consumers with on-demand computing, storage, and networking resources. A Cloud Resource Broker (CSB) acts as a mediator between cloud consumers and cloud providers. It effectively handles application requests and efficiently allocates cloud resources. Generally, CSB encounters large volumes of application requests. It is essential to properly and evenly distribute these application requests between the available cloud resources. The proposed work introduces a Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) based load balancing technique, which distributes cloud consumer application requests in an optimal and balanced manner. In addition, the present study investigates the Software-Defined Networking (SDN) cloud infrastructure, which dynamically configures and provides network paths on-demand, based on the network load. The proposed system is simulated and tested on real-world application traces. The proposed PSO based load balancing mechanism is shown to minimize average application response time, while maximizing throughput, cloud consumer satisfaction value, and resource utilization.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
