Given the scale of massively parallel systems, occurrence of faults is no longer an exception but a regular event. Periodic checkpointing is becoming increasingly important in the...
Simultaneous multithreading (SMT) represents a fundamental shift in processor capability. SMT's ability to execute multiple threads simultaneously within a single CPU offers ...
This paper investigates what it entails to provide I/O service differentiation and performance isolation for virtual machines on individual multicore nodes in cloud platforms. Sh...
An important goal of most empirical software engineering research is the transfer of research results to industrial applications. Two important obstacles for this transfer are the...
Distributed Hash Tables (DHTs) and Random Peer Sampling (RPS) provide important and complementary services in the area of P2P overlay networks. DHTs achieve efficient lookup whil...
