WELCOME TO vasabiLab
Wait! Our VasabiLab is not the laboratory that makes wasabi or try to produce the best wasabi. Instead, we conduct research about Virtualization Technology, and try to produce good virtualization software products to tackle various distributed computing problems.
vasabiLab stands for “Virtualization Architecture and ScalABle Infrastructure” Laboratory. Our goals are to conduct research in the area of computer virtualization and invent new software systems that implement advanced capabilities to tackle distributed computing problems under abstractions provided by virtual machines.
Current projects in our laboratory are:
Sushi-Cloud Openstack Project
The Sushi-cloud Openstack project intends to build a public Cloud platform based on the open source Openstack software to facilitate advanced studies and analysis of
Cloud computing. The project will also serve as an experimental platform for the integration of fault-tolerance software components and the open source public Cloud system.
The Virtual Cluster-based Coordinated checkpointing Protocol (VCCP)
The Virtual Cluster-based Coordinated checkpointing Protocol (VCCP) project is an attempt to build a "virtual cluster" framework to represent a cluster of virtual machines, and incorporate a coordinated checkpointing mechanism into it. VCCP allows coordinated checkpointing to operate transparently on the virtual cluster without application, operating systems, or hardware modifications.
The Checkpointing-Enabled Virtual Machine (CEVM)
The Checkpointing-Enabled Virtual Machine (CEVM) project is a project to create an efficient, hypervisor-based checkpointing mechanism exploiting available resources in multiprocessing environments. We are investigating a novel technique called Thread-based Live Checkpointing to efficiently perform checkpointing for a virtual machine.
