近來雲端運算提供給應用程式提供者一個很好的平台，再加上它還運用了虛擬化的技術；在使用者方面，他們可以在遠端使用資源。而在提供資源的這一方，他們在資源管理和建立起基礎環境的複雜度也降低了。在我的研究中，著重在雲端環境每台虛擬機器特性的探討，在執行每次使用者要求時，管理者必須去藉由一些管理系統去了解目前每台虛擬機器的狀況。 藉由我的研究，資源管理者可以輕鬆的了解每一台虛擬機器的特性，這樣雲上面的每一份資源都可以有效的被利用。

Recently, cloud computing has provided a well platform for application provider and it uses the virtualization. For user, they enable to control the remote resource. Moreover, for provider side, cloud computing has improved the effect on resource management as well as to achieve the cloud environment also becomes simple. In my research, I focus on understand the feature of each VMs and model them. When the requirement comes, resource supervisors have to check the condition of VMs by some supervised systems. According to my research, the resource supervisors can easily to understand each VMs feature so the resource of cloud environment would use effectively.
