This paper presents a comprehensive characterization of a multi-cluster supercomputer1 workload using twelvemonth scientific research traces. Metrics that we characterize include...
We are developing Virtuoso, a system for distributed computing using virtual machines (VMs). Virtuoso must be able to mix batch and interactive VMs on the same physical hardware, ...
In order to be efficient with selfish programmers, a multicore transactional memory (TM) system must be designed such that it is compatible with good programming incentives (GPI),...
—We propose a steepest descent method to compute optimal control parameters for balancing between multiple performance objectives in stateless stochastic scheduling, wherein the ...
