Abstract:
A cloud computing system management system including a plurality of computing devices configured to host virtual machine instances, each computing device in the plurality of computing devices including a local agent that continuously evaluates the observed load relative to a utility maximization function. If observed load is higher than a calculated optimal level, individual loading processes are offered for “sale” via a market scheduler. If observed load is lower than a calculated optimal level, then available capacity is offered as a bid via the market scheduler. The market scheduler matches bids with available processes and coordinates the transfer of load from the selling device to the buying device. The offered prices and utility maximization functions can be employed to optimize the performance of the cloud system as a whole.

Claim (Index 12):
A method for instantiating and authenticating an identified virtual machine, the method comprising:\n receiving a request to instantiate an identified virtual machine, the virtual machine being identified by a first immutable value, and the virtual machine having an associated virtual machine image; applying a cryptographic function to the virtual machine image to receive a second immutable value; if the second immutable value matches an expected value, instantiating the identified virtual machine; and if the second immutable value does not match the expected value, returning an error.
