Abstract: The energy consumption of information systems, especially scalable systems like clouds is required to be reduced to realise green computing systems. In an approach, the energy consumption of servers is decreased by the migration of virtual machines to more energy-efficient guest servers. We take a distributed approach that each server autonomously negotiates with other servers on the live migration of virtual machines. In this paper, we newly propose a migration negotiation for virtual machines (MNVM) protocol for doing the negotiation on the migration of virtual machines among servers. We propose NRB and NEA algorithms to do the energy-efficient live migration of virtual machines by taking advantage of the MNVM protocol. In the evaluation, the total energy consumption of the servers and the average execution time of processes are shown to be smaller in the NRB and NEA algorithms than non-migration algorithms.
