CloudSim 2.1.1 is available for download
Rodrigo Calheiros
Aligned with the publication of CloudSim paper in Software: Practice
and Experience [1] (available at
http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/spe.995/abstract), we are
happy to announce that CloudSim 2.1.1 is out. Apart from a OSGI-Bundle
generator for CloudSim (courtesy of Mr. Miguel Angel Rojas Gonzáles
from TU Dortmund University, Germany), this version contains only
bugfixes. Some of them were already available in the repository on
Google code, whereas others were identified and fixed more recently.
From now on, we plan to make more regular updates of the code: code
will be upload to Google code as soon as a safe solution to bugs are
found, while new packages will be released when we get a bunch of bugs
fixed. We also have plans for releasing a new version with further
functionalities in the near future.
We would like to thank all people that have contributed to this
version by sending bug reports (or even patches) to us. However, we
are unable to track names of all of them because they were sent via
e-mails from different sources: CloudSim Team members and CLOUDS Lab
members not involved with CloudSim. To avoid it to happen again, we
invite users to use the issue tracking system on Google code. These
tool enables users to report bugs and other issues in the project
site, what will help us to provide timely solutions to new issues.
Finally, we would like to thank all the users around the world for
using the tool, providing us feedbacks and suggestions, and discussing
in our mailing list. Your participation enables us to further improve
CloudSim.
Yours sincerely,
The CloudSim Team
