ASYST (2010-2013)

Participants : Djawida Dib, Christine Morin, Nikos Parlavantzas.

The objective of the ASYST project (Adaptation dynamique des fonctionnalités d'un SYSTème d'exploitation large échelle) funded by the Brittany council is to propose building distributed operating systems as sets of adaptable services. This project funds 50% of a PhD grant (Djawida Dib). In 2013, we have worked on the design and implementation of Meryn [24] , a flexible PaaS system that supports dynamically resizing virtual clusters to satisfy SLAs involving completion time and prices.
