OpenStack is a widely used management tool for cloud computing which is designed to work on servers and allocate standard computing resources such as CPU, memory or disk. The current trend for integrating different hardware accelerators such as FPGAs and GPUs in the cloud requires managing these heterogeneous resources. In this thesis, we propose a generalization for OpenStack Nova project which extends the relevant data structures to include these new resources. More importantly, we present a new lightweight Nova Compute module that we call Nova-G Compute. Nova-G Compute is suitable to work with different hardware platforms and can communicate with the rest of the OpenStack Projects. We implement a hypervisor-like software to enable Nova-G Compute accessing the FPGA resources. We perform experimental evaluation of Nova-G Compute using the known and used OpenStack benchmarking tool Rally. Our results show that Nova-G Compute works as desired without any reduced performance compared to standard Nova.

OpenStack Generalization for Hardware Accelerated Clouds
Erol, Ahmet; Yazar, Alper; Schmidt, Şenan Ece (2019-01-01)
OpenStack is a widely used management tool for cloud computing which is designed to work on servers and allocate standard computing resources such as CPU, memory or disk. The current trend for integrating different hardware accelerators such as FPGAs and GPUs in the cloud requires managing these heterogeneous resources.

Optimal dynamic resource allocation for heterogenous cloud data centers
Ekici, Nazım Umut; Güran Schmidt, Şenan.; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2019)
Today's data centers are mostly cloud-based with virtualized servers to provide on-demand scalability and flexibility of the available resources such as CPU, memory, data storage and network bandwidth. Heterogeneous cloud data centers (CDCs) offer hardware accelerators in addition to these standard cloud server resources. A cloud data center provider may provide Infrastructure as a Service and Platform as a Service (IPaaS), where the user gets a virtual machine (VM) with processing, memory, storage and netw...
A generalization of openstack for managing heterogeneous cloud resources Heterojen bulut kaynaklarinin yonetimi için openstack genelleştirimi
Erol, Ahmet; Yazar, Alper; Schmidt, Şenan Ece (2019-04-01)
This paper describes the generalization of OpenStack cloud resource management software to manage hardware resources other than the standard resources on the servers. To this end, OpenStack resource data structure is updated and the Nova project, which runs on the compute node, is rewritten so that it can run on different hardware platforms without depending on the operating system.
EXTENSION OF AN OPEN SOURCE RESOURCE MANAGEMENT TOOL FOR HETEROGENEOUS CLOUD DATA CENTERS: IMPLEMENTATION AND EVALUATION
Doğan, Taha; Schmidt, Şenan Ece; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2022-2-11)
Cloud Computing is enabled by the virtualization of computing resources to realize users' requests of virtual machines (VMs) and data processing in the scope of Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) and Software as a Service (SaaS) respectively. The current heterogeneous cloud data centers incorporate hardware accelerators in addition to the conventional servers to offer these services more efficiently. It is an important research problem to allocate heterogeneous physical computing resources to a mixture of ...
Hardware Accelerators for Cloud Computing: Features and Implementation
Tirlioglu, Anil; Demir, Omer Bayram; Yazar, Alper; Schmidt, Şenan Ece (2021-01-01)
In this paper, hardware accelerator (FHA) applications realized on FPGA that can be offered as a service in cloud computing systems are discussed. It is necessary to know the hardware resources used by FHA applications and the performance they provide for the efficient meeting of the user requests and effective resource planning. To this end, the first contribution of this paper is to provide a compilation of the literature on the features of frequently used hardware accelerators (matrix multiplication, fac...
