A Complex Network Based Virtual Computing Environment Topology Generating Method

Abstract

The topologies of Internet and Internet-based information systems have complex network properties. Designing Internet-based virtual computing environment topology with appropriate properties is significant for both the resource sharing and system performance. We analyses the topology properties of the typical P2P systems, and proposes a new topology generating method, which includes three phases, birth, growth and maturity, and supports multi-node concurrent joining in. The iVCE topology generation method can produce stable structure, with load balancing capability. Analysis of the generated topologies shows that the degree of their super-node obeys normal distribution law, the average path length between nodes shows small-world properties.
