            Abstract : 
The Mnemos resource management and scheduling architecture uses portfolio scheduling, topology-aware virtual-resource management, and state information to self-adapt to significant workload changes and to analyze risks. Simulations with real-world workload traces reveal the potential for significant cost savings.
