Beating the I/O Bottleneck: A Case for Log-Structured Virtual Disks

Vojtech Aschenbrenner

With the increasing dominance of SSDs for local storage, today's network mounted virtual disks can no longer offer competitive performance. We propose a Log-Structured Virtual Disk (LSVD) that couples log-structured approaches at both the cache and storage ...

HPCache: Memory-Efficient OLAP Through Proportional Caching

Anastasia Ailamaki, Periklis Chrysogelos, Hamish Mcniece Hill Nicholson

Analytical engines rely on in-memory caching to avoid disk accesses and provide timely responses by keeping the most frequently accessed data in memory. Purely frequency- & time-based caching decisions, however, are a proxy of the expected query execution ...

Dynamic Byzantine Reliable Broadcast

Rachid Guerraoui, Jovan Komatovic, Dragos-Adrian Seredinschi, Andrei Tonkikh

Reliable broadcast is a communication primitive guaranteeing, intuitively, that all processes in a distributed system deliver the same set of messages. The reason why this primitive is appealing is twofold: (i) we can implement it deterministically in a co ...

Micro-architectural analysis of in-memory OLTP: Revisited

Anastasia Ailamaki, Danica Porobic, Utku Sirin

Micro-architectural behavior of traditional disk-based online transaction processing (OLTP) systems has been investigated extensively over the past couple of decades. Results show that traditional OLTP systems mostly under-utilize the available micro-archi ...

On Calculating the Minimum Rate for the Cooperative Data Exchange Problem Over Fully Connected Networks

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Su Li

We study the cooperative data exchange problem for fully connected networks. In this problem, nodes make broadcast transmissions to recover a file consisting of K independent packets. Each node initially only possesses a subset of the packets. We propose ( ...

The Hidden Complexity of Distributed Systems

Karolos Antoniadis

The field of distributed computing has a long history, of more than fifty years. During that time, our understanding of the field has improved immensely and a certain body of folklore beliefs has formed. However, such folklore beliefs are not necessarily a ...

Application of data reconciliation methods for performance monitoring of power-to-gas plants

François Maréchal, Jonas Schnidrig, Tuong-Van Nguyen, Alessio Santecchia

Power-to-gas plants have recently gained more attraction as these storage systems can be deployed in the European energy grid to ease the integration of renewable energy sources. Most studies in this field address several aspects, from their technical perf ...

Underground Pumped Storage Hydropower Case Studies in Belgium: Perspectives and Challenges

Elena Vagnoni, Alessandro Morabito

To avoid the geographical and topographical prerequisites of the conventional pumped hydro energy storage, the use of underground cavities as water reservoirs allows countries without steep topography, such as Belgium, to increase the potential of the ener ...
