Midas: Systematic Kernel TOCTTOU Protection

Mathias Josef Payer, Atri Bhattacharyya, Uros Tesic

Double-fetch bugs are a plague across all major operating system kernels. They occur when data is fetched twice across the user/kernel trust boundary while allowing concurrent modification. Such bugs enable an attacker to illegally access memory, cause den ...

Hardware and Software Support for RPC-Centric Server Architecture

Mark Johnathon Sutherland

Online services have become ubiquitous in technological society, the global demand for which has driven enterprises to construct gigantic datacenters that run their software. Such facilities have also recently become a substrate for third-party organizatio ...

Hardware-Software Co-Design of an RPC Processor

Arash Pourhabibi Zarandi

The booming popularity of online services has led to a major evolution in the way these services are built and deployed. To cope with such online data-intensive services, service providers deploy several massive-scale datacenters, also referred to as wareh ...

A system design for elastically scaling transaction processing engines in virtualized servers

Anastasia Ailamaki, Angelos Christos Anadiotis, Raja Appuswamy, Hillel Avni

Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) deployments are migrating from on-premise to cloud settings in order to exploit the elasticity of cloud infrastructure which allows them to adapt to workload variations. However, cloud adaptation comes at the cost of re ...

Efficient Workload Colocation in Modern Data Centers

Calin Iorgulescu

Despite the high costs of acquisition and maintenance of modern data centers, machine resource utilization is often low. Servers running online interactive services are over-provisioned to support peak load (which only occurs for a fraction of the time), d ...

Optimistic Causal Consistency for Geo-Replicated Key-Value Stores

Willy Zwaenepoel, Diego Didona, Kristina Spirovska

Causal consistency is an attractive consistency model for geo-replicated data stores because it hits a sweet spot in the ease of programmability vs performance trade-off. In this paper we propose a new approach to causal consistency, which we call Optimist ...

VNToR: Network Virtualization at the Top-of-Rack Switch

Edouard Bugnion, Georgios Ioannidis, Sam David Whitlock, Jonas Fietz

Cloud providers typically implement abstractions for net- work virtualization on the server, within the operating sys- tem that hosts the tenant virtual machines or containers. Despite being flexible and convenient, this approach has funda- mental problems ...

A randomised primal-dual algorithm for distributed radio-interferometric imaging

Yves Wiaux, Rafael Eduardo Carrillo Rangel, Jason Douglas McEwen

Next generation radio telescopes, like the Square Kilometre Array, will acquire an unprecedented amount of data for radio astronomy. The development of fast, parallelisable or distributed algorithms for handling such large-scale data sets is of prime impor ...

Computing in social networks

Rachid Guerraoui, Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Kévin Clément Huguenin, Andrei Giurgiu

This paper defines the problem of Scalable Secure computing in a Social network: we call it the S-3 problem. In short, nodes, directly reflecting on associated users, need to compute a symmetric function f : V-n -> U of their inputs in a set of constant si ...

Approximation schemes for many-objective query optimization

Christoph Koch, Immanuel Trummer

The goal of multi-objective query optimization (MOQO) is to find query plans that realize a good compromise between conicting objectives such as minimizing execution time and minimizing monetary fees in a Cloud scenario. A previously proposed exhaustive MO ...
