The Liquid Execution (LIQUIDX) framework is a foundational step for enabling elastic computation in High-Performance Computing clouds. We mainly perform two parallel research: i) LIQUID-CPU: A new resource broker that codifies application elasticity requirements and provides better predictability of resource needs; ii) LIQUID-IO: A new technique that uses data and computes interactions to predict resource requirement of distributed applications​.
