Quantifying the Mismatch between Emerging Scale-Out Applications and Modern Processors

Anastasia Ailamaki, Babak Falsafi, Michael Ferdman, Mohammad Alisafaee, Yusuf Onur Koçberber, Stavros Volos, Ilknur Cansu Kaynak, Adrian Daniel Popescu, Al Mutaz Adileh, Dorde Jevdic

Emerging scale-out workloads require extensive amounts of computational resources. However, data centers using modern server hardware face physical constraints in space and power, limiting further expansion and calling for improvements in the computational ...

RouteBricks: Exploiting Parallelism to Scale Software Routers

Mihai Dobrescu

We revisit the problem of scaling software routers, motivated by recent advances in server technology that enable high-speed parallel processing---a feature router workloads appear ideally suited to exploit. We propose a software router architecture that p ...

Dynamic Resource Allocation for Database Servers Running on Virtual Storage

Adrian Daniel Popescu, Daniel Lupei, Jin Chen

We introduce a novel multi-resource allocator to dynamically allocate resources for database servers running on virtual storage. Multi-resource allocation involves proportioning the database and storage server caches, and the storage bandwidth between appl ...

Evaluating and Repairing Write Performance on Flash Devices

Anastasia Ailamaki, Frederick Ryan Johnson, Manoussos Gavriil Athanassoulis, Radu Ioan Stoica

In the last few years NAND flash storage has become more and more popular as price per GB and capacity both improve at exponential rates. Flash memory offers significant benefits compared to magnetic hard disk drives (HDDs) and DBMSs are highly likely to u ...

Peer Sharing Behaviour in the eDonkey Network, and Implications for the Design of Server-less File Sharing Systems

Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Sidath Handurukande

In this paper we present an empirical study of a workload gathered by crawling the eDonkey network - a dominant peer-to-peer file sharing system - for over 50 days. We first confirm the presence of some known features, in particular the prevalence of free- ...

Distributed Sender-Driven Video Streaming

Pascal Frossard

A system for sender-driven video streaming from multiple servers to a single receiver is considered in this paper. The receiver monitors incoming packets on each network path and returns, to the senders, estimates of the available bandwidth on all the netw ...

Optimizing Streaming Applications with Self-Interested Users using MDPOP

Boi Faltings, Adrian Petcu

In this paper we deal with the problem of optimally placing a set of query operators in an overlay network. Each user is interested in performing a query on streaming data and each query has an associated set of in-network operators that filter, aggregate ...

Advanced Peer-to-Peer Networking: The P-Grid System and its Applications

Karl Aberer, Manfred Hauswirth, Philippe Cudré-Mauroux, Anwitaman Datta, Roman Schmidt, Jie Wu, Zoran Despotovic

The limitations of client/server systems become evident in an Internet-scale distributed environment. Peer-topeer (P2P) systems offer an interesting alternative to traditional client/server systems: Every node acts both as a client and a server and “ ...

Parallel file striping on optical jukebox servers

Roger Hersch

In the near future, large digital media servers are expected to offer storage capacities in the order of petabytes. Servers made of clusters of PCs connected to jukeboxes may represent an interesting alternative compared with servers made of arrays of magn ...
