libguestfs

libguestfs is a library for accessing and modifying guest disk images. Amongst the things this is good for: making batch configuration changes to guests, getting disk used/free statistics (see also: virt-df), migrating between virtualization systems (see also: virt-p2v), performing partial backups ... [More] , performing partial guest clones, cloning guests and changing registry/UUID/hostname info, and much else besides. libguestfs uses Linux kernel and qemu code, and can access any type of guest filesystem that Linux and qemu can, including but not limited to: ext2/3/4, btrfs, FAT and NTFS, LVM, many different disk partition schemes, qcow, qcow2, vmdk. libguestfs has bindings for C, C++, OCaml, Perl, Python, Ruby or Java.

virtual-machine-scheduler

Virtual machine scheduling is different from ordinary time-slicing scheduling systems in the following ways: in the past, all the applications belongs to the same entity(a user or a organization). However, in cloud computing, the users are not cooperative. in cloud computing, a user may require a ... [More] set of virtual machines cooperating with each other to accomplish one task. In the past, the inter-relationship among tasks are not considered. load balancing has different meaning now. Due to the consumption of electric power, it is no longer wanted that all the CPUs in a clouding infrastructure are under-utilized. Based on KVM(kernel virtual machine, http://www.linux-kvm.org), this project aims to solve these problems in the following way: implement an OS-neutral virtual machine scheduling framework implement the hard-cpu-limit scheduling support implement the virtual machine co-scheduling implement the power-aware load balance scheduling. and more The scheduler developed here will also be beneficial to Xen VMM.
