Most cloud platforms currently rely on each application to provide its own fault tolerance. A uniform mechanism within the cloud itself serves two purposes: (a) direct support for long-running jobs, which would otherwise require a custom fault-tolerant mechanism for each application; and (b) the administrative capability to manage an over-subscribed cloud by temporarily swapping out jobs when higher priority jobs arrive. An advantage of this uniform approach is that it also supports parallel and distributed computations, over both TCP and InfiniBand, thus allowing traditional HPC applications to take advantage of an existing cloud infrastructure. Additionally, an integrated health-monitoring mechanism detects when longrunning jobs either fail or incur exceptionally low performance, perhaps due to resource starvation, and proactively suspends the job. The cloud-agnostic feature is demonstrated by applying the implementation to two very different cloud platforms: Snooze and OpenStack. The use of a cloud-agnostic architecture also enables, for the first time, migration of applications from one cloud platform to another.

We have had a small discussion on a few algorithms like PCA, support vector machine, ID3, etc. and we have also discussed about some of the existing work done by my fellow researchers. We have also proposed a method for face detection using 3D modeling of image. We will produce a 3D face model then we do the refinement of 3D face we receive by editing of points and finally we perform a smoothing process. Smoothing of image is a performed to get the more realistic 3D face model for the person.
