Optical Networks for Composable Data Centers
Opeyemi O. Ajibola, Taisir E. H. El-Gorashi, Jaafar M. H. Elmirghani
Composable data centers (DCs) have been proposed to enable greater efficiencies as the uptake of on-demand computing services grows. In this article we give an overview of composab…
Network Topologies for Composable Data Centres
Opeyemi O. Ajibola, Taisir E. H. El-Gorashi, Jaafar M. H. Elmirghani
Suitable composable data center networks (DCNs) are essential to support the disaggregation of compute components in highly efficient next generation data centers (DCs). However, d…
Disaggregation for Energy Efficient Fog in Future 6G Networks
Opeyemi O. Ajibola, Taisir E. H. El-Gorashi, Jaafar M. H. Elmirghani
We study the benefits of adopting server disaggregation in the fog computing tier by evaluating energy efficient placement of interactive apps in a future fog 6G network. Using a m…
Energy Efficient Placement of Workloads in Composable Data Center Networks
Opeyemi O. Ajibola, Taisir E. H. El-Gorashi, Jaafar M. H. Elmirghani
This paper studies the energy efficiency of composable datacentre (DC) infrastructures over network topologies. Using a mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model, we compare th…
A Network Topology for Composable Infrastructures
Opeyemi O. Ajibola, Taisir E. H. El-Gorashi, Jaafar M. H. Elmirghani
This paper proposes a passive optical backplane as a new network topology for composable computing infrastructures. The topology provides a high capacity, low-latency and flexible…
Disaggregation for Improved Efficiency in Fog Computing Era
Opeyemi O. Ajibola, Taisir E. H. El-Gorashi, Jaafar M. H. Elmirghani
This paper evaluates the impact of using disaggregated servers in the near-edge of telecom networks (metro central offices, radio cell sites and enterprise branch office which form…
