@inproceedings{505, abstract = {{In this paper we introduce “On-The-Fly Computing”, our vision of future IT services that will be provided by assembling modular software components available on world-wide markets. After suitable components have been found, they are automatically integrated, configured and brought to execution in an On-The-Fly Compute Center. We envision that these future compute centers will continue to leverage three current trends in large scale computing which are an increasing amount of parallel processing, a trend to use heterogeneous computing resources, and—in the light of rising energy cost—energy-efficiency as a primary goal in the design and operation of computing systems. In this paper, we point out three research challenges and our current work in these areas.}}, author = {{Happe, Markus and Kling, Peter and Plessl, Christian and Platzner, Marco and Meyer auf der Heide, Friedhelm}}, booktitle = {{Proceedings of the 9th IEEE Workshop on Software Technology for Future embedded and Ubiquitous Systems (SEUS)}}, publisher = {{IEEE}}, title = {{{On-The-Fly Computing: A Novel Paradigm for Individualized IT Services}}}, doi = {{10.1109/ISORC.2013.6913232}}, year = {{2013}}, }
