Clusters are the most common solutions for high performance computing at the present time. In this kind of systems, an important challenge is the I/O subsystem design. Typically, ...
In this paper we address the problem of managing heterogeneous workloads in a virtualized data center. We consider two different workloads: transactional applications and long-ru...

Hybrid chip multithreaded SMPs present new challenges as well as new opportunities to maximize performance. Our intention is to discover the optimal operating configuration of suc...
ALPS is a per-application user-level proportional-share scheduler that operates with low overhead and without any special kernel support. ALPS is useful to a range of applications...
Recently, under a fixed power budget, asymmetric multiprocessors (AMP) have been proposed to improve the performance of multi-threaded applications compared to symmetric multiproc...
