GoogleTaskEventsTraceReader¶

public final class GoogleTaskEventsTraceReader extends GoogleTraceReaderAbstract<Cloudlet>¶

Process “task events” trace files from Google Cluster Data to create Cloudlets belonging to cloud customers (users). Customers are represented as DatacenterBroker instances created from the trace file. The trace files are the ones inside the task_events sub-directory of downloaded Google traces. The instructions to download the traces are provided in the link above.

The class also creates the required brokers to represent the customers (users) defined by the username field inside the trace file.

A spreadsheet that makes it easier to understand the structure of trace files is provided in docs/google-cluster-data-samples.xlsx

The documentation for fields and values were obtained from the Google Cluster trace documentation in the link above. It’s strongly recommended to read such a documentation before trying to use this class.

Constructors¶

GoogleTaskEventsTraceReader¶

public GoogleTaskEventsTraceReader(CloudSim simulation, String filePath, Function<TaskEvent, Cloudlet> cloudletCreationFunction)¶

Instantiates a GoogleTaskEventsTraceReader to read a “task events” file.

Parameters:

simulation – the simulation instance that the created tasks and brokers will belong to.
filePath – the workload trace relative file name in one of the following formats: ASCII text, zip, gz.
cloudletCreationFunction – A Function that will be called for every Cloudlet to be created from a line inside the trace file. The Function will receive a TaskEvent object containing the task data read from the trace and must return a new Cloudlet according to such data.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException – when the trace file name is null or empty
UncheckedIOException – when the file cannot be accessed (such as when it doesn’t exist)

Methods¶

createBrokerIfAbsent¶

protected DatacenterBroker createBrokerIfAbsent(String username)¶

Creates a new broker if a previous one with the specified username was not created

Parameters:	username – the username of the broker
Returns:	an already existing broker with the given username or a new one if there was no broker with such an username

createCloudlet¶

protected Cloudlet createCloudlet(TaskEvent taskEvent)¶

createTaskEventFromTraceLine¶

protected TaskEvent createTaskEventFromTraceLine()¶

getBroker¶

protected DatacenterBroker getBroker()¶

Gets an DatacenterBroker instance representing the username from the last trace line read.

Returns:	the `DatacenterBroker` instance

getBrokers¶

public List<DatacenterBroker> getBrokers()¶: Gets the List of brokers created according to the username from the trace file, representing a customer.

getCloudletCreationFunction¶

protected Function<TaskEvent, Cloudlet> getCloudletCreationFunction()¶

Gets a Function that will be called for every Cloudlet to be created from a line inside the trace file.

See also: .setCloudletCreationFunction(Function)

getInstance¶

public static GoogleTaskEventsTraceReader getInstance(CloudSim simulation, String filePath, Function<TaskEvent, Cloudlet> cloudletCreationFunction)¶

Gets a GoogleTaskEventsTraceReader instance to read a “task events” trace file inside the application’s resource directory.

Parameters:

simulation – the simulation instance that the created tasks and brokers will belong to.
filePath – the workload trace relative file name in one of the following formats: ASCII text, zip, gz.
cloudletCreationFunction – A Function that will be called for every Cloudlet to be created from a line inside the trace file. The Function will receive a TaskEvent object containing the task data read from the trace and must return a new Cloudlet according to such data.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException – when the trace file name is null or empty
UncheckedIOException – when the file cannot be accessed (such as when it doesn’t exist)

getSimulation¶

public Simulation getSimulation()¶

postProcess¶

protected void postProcess()¶

preProcess¶

protected void preProcess()¶: There is no pre-process requirements for this implementation.

process¶

public Set<Cloudlet> process()¶

Process the trace file creating a Set of Cloudlets described in the file. Each created Cloudlet is automatically submitted to its respective broker.

It returns the Set of all submitted Cloudlets at any timestamp inside the trace file (the timestamp is used to delay the Cloudlet submission).

Returns:	the Set of all submitted `Cloudlet`s for any timestamp inside the trace file.

See also: .getBrokers()

processParsedLineInternal¶

protected boolean processParsedLineInternal()¶

requestCloudletStatusChange¶

boolean requestCloudletStatusChange(BiFunction<DatacenterBroker, Long, Optional<Cloudlet>> cloudletLookupFunction, int tag)¶

Send a message to the broker to request change in a Cloudlet status, using some tags from CloudSimTags such as CloudSimTags.CLOUDLET_READY.

Parameters:	cloudletLookupFunction – a `BiFunction` that receives the broker to find the Cloudlet into and the unique ID of the Cloudlet (task), so that the Cloudlet status can be changed tag – a tag from the `CloudSimTags` used to send a message to request the Cloudlet status change, such as `CloudSimTags.CLOUDLET_FINISH`
Returns:	true if the request was created, false otherwise

setCloudletCreationFunction¶

public void setCloudletCreationFunction(Function<TaskEvent, Cloudlet> cloudletCreationFunction)¶

Sets a Function that will be called for every Cloudlet to be created from a line inside the trace file. The Function will receive a TaskEvent object containing the task data read from the trace and should the created Cloudlet. The provided function must instantiate the Host and defines Host’s CPU cores and RAM capacity according the the received parameters. For other Hosts configurations (such as storage capacity), the provided function must define the value as desired, since the trace file doesn’t have any other information for such resources.

Parameters:	cloudletCreationFunction – the `Function` to set
