"cloudsim: a toolkit for modeling and simulation of cloud computing environments and evaluation of resource provisioning algorithms" presents the background information on various elements that form the basis for architecting Cloud computing systems. It also presents the requirements of elastic or malleable applications that need to scale across multiple, geographically distributed data centers that are owned by one or more Cloud service providers. The CloudSim framework aims to ease-up and speed the process of conducting experimental studies that use Cloud computing as the application provisioning environments. | SOFTWARE – PRACTICE AND EXPERIENCE Softw.

It can leverage virtualized services even on the fly based on requirements (workload patterns and QoS) varying with time. The application services hosted under Cloud computing model have complex provisioning, composition, configuration, and deployment requirements. Evaluating the performance of Cloud provisioning policies, application workload models, and resources performance models in a repeatable manner under varying system and user configurations and requirements is difficult to achieve. To overcome this challenge, we propose CloudSim: an extensible simulation toolkit that enables modeling and simulation of Cloud computing systems and application provisioning environments. The CloudSim toolkit supports both system and behavior modeling of Cloud system components such as data centers, virtual machines (VMs) and resource provisioning policies. It implements generic application provisioning techniques that can be extended with ease and limited effort. Currently, it supports modeling and simulation of Cloud computing environments consisting
