CloudSimSDN-v2.0.1-beta (CloudSimSDN-NFV)

This is a new release that includes patches and updates until June 2019.

New Features:

• Resource provisioning for NFV in the edge computing environment;
• Simulation framework for NFV in edge and cloud computing (inter-cloud data centers);
• Policy supports of Network link selection, VM allocation, Virtual Network Function(VNF) placement, and SFC auto-scaling algorithms;
• Performance evaluation of the framework with use case scenarios.

Bug Fixed:

• bugs in mvn compilation, pom file, examples, and codes in CloudSim 4.0 (check them out) are fixed...

• the cloudsim-4.0.jar could be downloaded here or clone the master branch of [CloudSim (cloudsim-4.0)] src code (https://github.com/Cloudslab/cloudsim) and export the jar file by yourself...

CloudSimSDN-v1.0.1-beta

This is a new release that includes patches and updates until November 2018.

CloudSimSDN-v1.0.0-beta

CloudSimSDN is a simulation framework for SDN-enabled cloud environments based on CloudSim.
CloudSimSDN supports calculating power consumption by both hosts and switches. For instance, network-aware VM placement policies can be evaluated using CloudSimSDN. As an example, we will present energy savings in SDN-enabled cloud data center via VM consolidation. If VMs are consolidated to the minimum number of hosts, the unused hosts and switches can be powered off to save more power. We will show two different VM placement policies: Best Fit (MFF, Most Full First) and Worst Fit (LFF, Least Full First).
