deletion and migration of the virtual machine. Migration module helps to reduce the energy consumption using server consolidation which means multiple underutilized virtual machines can be deployed on a single physical machine. In such an environment

we have proposed a slot-based migration approach to manage the virtual infrastructure using space-sharing technology of virtualization with the solution of multiple hops problem. The experimental results showthat the migration module reduces considerable amount of power consumption.
