Markov Decision

Artificial Intelligence allows to create engines that are able to explore, learn environments and therefore create policies that permit to control them in real time with no human intervention. It can be applied, through its Reinforcement Learning techniques component, using frameworks such as temporal differences, State-Action-Reward-State-Action (SARSA), Q Learning to name a few, to systems that are be perceived as a Markov Decision Process, this opens door in front of applying Reinforcement Learning to Cloud Load Balancing to be able to dispatch load dynamically to a given Cloud System. The authors will describe different techniques that can used to implement a Reinforcement Learning based engine in a cloud system.

Explicit Communication

We study the process of multi-agent reinforcement learning in the context ofload balancing in a distributed system, without use of either centralcoordination or explicit communication. We first define a precise frameworkin which to study adaptive load balancing, important features of which are itsstochastic nature and the purely local information available to individualagents. Given this framework, we show illuminating results on the interplaybetween basic adaptive behavior parameters and their effect on systemefficiency. We then investigate the properties of adaptive load balancing inheterogeneous populations, and address the issue of exploration vs.exploitation in that context. Finally, we show that naive use ofcommunication may not improve, and might even harm system efficiency.
