We propose a companion solution to iSCSI that is more suited for virtualization of local computer bus architectures, such as PCI/PCI-X and PCI Express. We explore the architecture ...
Aggressive software speculation holds significant potential, because it enables program transformations to reduce the program’s critical path. Like any form of speculation, how...
Protocols that solve agreement problems are essential building blocks for fault tolerant distributed systems. While many protocols have been published, little has been done to ana...
To expand the Scalable Coherent Interface's (SCI) capabilities so it can be used to efficiently handle sharing in systems of hundreds or even thousands of processors, the SCI...
