For the environmental artistic design, the traditional mode of environmental artistic design is broken through after the emergence of computer technology and virtual reality technique, which makes the scheme and application of virtual reality technique in environmental artistic design to own more practical value. In this paper, the virtual reality technique and its practical application in environmental artistic design are set forth, and the profound influence on the actual design by the virtual reality technique is studied with expectation of enlightenment for broadening the thought of environmental artistic design.展开更多

Virtual machines （VMs） have been widely used in iVCE to isolate different users/jobs and ensure trustworthiness, but traditionally VMs require a long period of time for booting, which cannot meet the requirement of iVCE＇s large-scale and highly dynamic applications. To address this problem, in this paper we design and implement VirtMan, a fast booting system for a large number of virtual machines in iVCE. VirtMan uses the Linux Small Computer System Interface （SCSI） target to remotely mount to the source image in a scalable hierarchy, and leverages the homogeneity of a set of VMs to transfer only necessary image data at runtime. We have implemented VirtMan both as a standalone system and for OpenStack. In our 100-server testbed, VirtMan boots up 1000 VMs （with a 15 CB image of Windows Server 2008） on 100 physical servers in less than 120 s, which is three orders of magnitude lower than current public clouds.展开更多
