[Haizea] Dissertation now available online

[Borja Sotomayor]

Hi everyone,

As many of you know, I have been developing Haizea as part of my PhD 
dissertation work. I am happy to announce that I successfully defended 
my dissertation last July, and will have a PhD as of this Friday :-) You 
can download my dissertation here:

	http://people.cs.uchicago.edu/~borja/dissertation/

The text itself includes an appendix with detailed instructions on how 
to reproduce all the results in the dissertation using Haizea. This may 
be of use to those of you who are interested in running simulations with 
Haizea, as these instructions can give you a good starting point for 
setting up your own experiments. All the scripts I used, along with all 
the experimental data I produced in my own run of the experiments, is 
also available at the above URL.

In case you're wondering, even though my dissertation is over, 
development of Haizea is going to continue for the foreseeable future. 
I'm aiming for a 1.2 release sometime in the fall, incorporating the 
more recent stuff I developed for my dissertation (including lease 
pricing and deadline scheduling), and the work our Summer of Code 
student, Enrique Alvarez, has been doing to improve the integration 
between Haizea and OpenNebula.

Cheers!
