RISC: Robust Infrastructure over Shared Computing Resources through Dynamic Pricing and Incentivization This paper presents a framework for Robust Infrastructure over Shared Computing resource (RISC), which can offer Organizations with Small-scale Computing infrastructures (OSCs) a way to share their unused resources in an ad-hoc manner for suitable monetary incentives. Such a framework provides dual benefits to an OSC: it enables sharing of unused resource during periods of low computing load while allowing execution of any long-term computation on public or anonym zed data at a very low cost during periods of high load. The ad-hoc and heterogeneous nature of the shared infrastructure make the resource management problem inRISC non-trivial — a resource manager needs to: (i) maximize profit while determining incentives for resource owners and prices for resource users in an integrated manner, and (ii)emulate large-scale cloud-like robustness and capabilities out of unreliable, small-scale and intermittently available resources at a low cost. This leads to a constrained market situation where offered prices and incentives should lead to a desired level of SLA and reliability for the consumers. Existing approaches of incentive based scheduling for market-like grids assume an open market, based only on demand response, and thus are inapplicable for the constrained market situation in shared resources infrastructure. Specifically, RISC framework has two main components: (i) a first-of-a-kind Dynamic Pricing and Incentivization (DPI) strategy that computes the incentives and the prices while maximizing profit for RISC, using an epoch-by-epoch pricing feedback loop, and (ii) a DPI dependent Reliability, Cost and Seaware(RCS) scheduler that takes the resource reservation requests as input and assigns replicas of these requests tone or more shared resources for guaranteeing performanceSLAs and reliability, while minimizing the cost of resource reservations. Moreover, to handle the communication overhead of computing over geographically distributed resources, the scheduler s- rives to reduce the network cost of resource allocation. Results from extensive trace-driven experimentation show that our approach can indeed provide appropriate incentives for resource providers, and robust cost-efficient infrastructure solution for resource users.
