Abstract

In the paper, we investigate the heterogeneous resource allocation scheme for virtual machines with slicing technology in the 5G/B5G edge computing environment. In general, the different slices for different task scenarios exist in the same edge layer synchronously. A lot of researches reveal that the virtual machines of different slices indicate strong heterogeneity with different reserved resource granularity. In the condition, the allocation process is a NP hard problem and difficult for the actual demand of the tasks in the strongly heterogeneous environment. Based on the slicing and container concept, we propose the resource allocation scheme named Two-Dimension allocation and correlation placement Scheme (TDACP). The scheme divides the resource allocation and management work into three stages in this paper: In the first stage, it designs reasonably strategy to allocate resources to different task slices according to demand. In the second stage, it establishes an equivalent relationship between the virtual machine reserved resource capacity and the Service-Level Agreement (SLA) of the virtual machine in different slices. In the third stage, it designs a placement optimization strategy to schedule the equivalent virtual machines in the physical servers. Thus, it is able to establish a virtual machine placement strategy with high resource utilization efficiency and low time cost. The simulation results indicate that the proposed scheme is able to suppress the problem of uneven resource allocation which is caused by the pure preemptive scheduling strategy. It adjusts the number of equivalent virtual machines based on the SLA range of system parameter, and reduces the SLA probability of physical servers effectively based on resource utilization time sampling series linear. The scheme is able to guarantee resource allocation and management work orderly and efficiently in the edge datacenter slices.
