Abstract
Cloud gaming is a promising approach to provide high-quality gaming services to mobile devices. However, existing cloud gaming systems fail to fully exploit hardware resources due to coarse-grained resource scheduling based on virtual machine migration. In this article, we propose a novel cloud gaming design, referred to as FGCG, with fine-grained scheduling to maximize resource utilization on a heterogeneous CPU-GPU cluster. Specifically, we decompose game workloads into small and independent render tasks that can be freely dispatched to different machines. Trace-driven simulation results show that FGCG can significantly improve resource utilization compared to existing cloud gaming systems.
