Caching All Plans with Just One Optimizer Call

Anastasia Ailamaki, Ioannis Alagiannis, Debabrata Dash, Cristina Ileana Maier

Modern database management systems (DBMS) answer a multitude of complex queries on increasingly larger datasets. Given the complexities of the queries and the numerous design features, manual design is no longer an option. Instead, automatically designing ...

Flash in a DBMS: Where and How?

Anastasia Ailamaki, Manoussos Gavriil Athanassoulis, Radu Ioan Stoica

Over the past decade, new solid state storage technologies, with flash being the most mature one, have become increasingly popular. Such technologies store data durably, and can alleviate many handicaps of hard disk drives (HDDs). Nonetheless, they have ve ...

Reputation-Based Content Dissemination for User Generated Wireless Podcasting

Jean-Yves Le Boudec

User-generated podcasting service over human-centric opportunistic network can facilitate user-generated content sharing while humans are on the move beyond the coverage of infrastructure networks. We focus on the aspects of designing efficient forwarding ...

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 ...

Query-driven indexing in large-scale distributed systems

Gleb Skobeltsyn

Efficient and effective search in large-scale data repositories requires complex indexing solutions deployed on a large number of servers. Web search engines such as Google and Yahoo! already rely upon complex systems to be able to return relevant query re ...

Temporal instruction fetch streaming

Anastasia Ailamaki, Babak Falsafi, Michael Ferdman

L1 instruction-cache misses pose a critical performance bottleneck in commercial server workloads. Cache access latency constraints preclude L1 instruction caches large enough to capture the application, library, and OS instruction working sets of these wo ...

Last-touch correlated data streaming

Babak Falsafi, Michael Ferdman

Recent research advocates address-correlating predictors to identify cache block addresses for prefetch. Unfortunately, address-correlating predictors require correlation data storage proportional in size to a program's active memory footprint. As a result ...

Rendering massive real-time crowds

Pablo Stanislaw De Heras Ciechomski

This thesis presents how to visualize a large crowd of virtual human characters in real time on a standard issue personal computer. The virtual humans are distributed into rendering fidelities such that the humans closer to the viewer are detailed and expr ...

Improving instruction cache performance in OLTP

Anastasia Ailamaki

Instruction-cache misses account for up to 40%; of execution time in online transaction processing (OLTP) database workloads. In contrast to data cache misses, instruction misses cannot be overlapped with out-of-order execution. Chip design limitations do ...

A case for asymmetric-cell cache memories

Babak Falsafi

In this paper, we make the case for building high-performance asymmetric-cell caches (ACCs) that employ recently-proposed asymmetric SRAMs to reduce leakage proportionally to the number of resident zero bits. Because ACCs target memory value content (indep ...
