The branches of this repository are orginazed as follows:

• rubis: service-level-aware extension of RUBiS and its local controller;
• rubbos: service-level-aware extension of RUBBoS and its local controller.

To conduct the experiments, we used Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS. Other software has been installed from the official repositories, specifically:

• Linux 3.2.0
• Xen 4.1.2
• GNU compiler collection 4.6.3
• GNU make 3.81

• libcurl 7.22.0
• Python 2.7.3
• Apache 2.2.22
• PHP 5.3.10
• MySQL 5.5.31

Installing this software on top of Ubuntu can be achieved using the following commands:

sudo apt-get install xen-hypervisor-4.1-amd64 build-essential \
	libboost1.48-all-dev libvirt-dev libtinyxml-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev \
