Hybrid, Job-Aware, and Preemptive Datacenter Scheduling

Pamela Isabel Delgado Borda

Scheduling in datacenters is an important, yet challenging problem. Datacenters are composed of a large number, typically tens of thousands, of commodity computers running a variety of data-parallel jobs. The role of the scheduler is to assign cluster reso ...

Don't cry over spilled records: Memory elasticity of data-parallel applications and its application to cluster scheduling

Willy Zwaenepoel, Calin Iorgulescu, Syed Mohammad Aunn Raza, Florin Dinu, Wajih Ul Hassan

Understanding the performance of data-parallel workloads when resource-constrained has significant practical importance but unfortunately has received only limited attention. This paper identifies, quantifies and demonstrates memory elasticity, an intrinsi ...

Reconstruction of recurrent synaptic connectivity of thousands of neurons from simulated spiking activity

Moritz Deger

Dynamics and function of neuronal networks are determined by their synaptic connectivity. Current experimental methods to analyze synaptic network structure on the cellular level, however, cover only small fractions of functional neuronal circuits, typical ...

PAI: A lightweight mechanism for single-node memory recovery in DSM servers

Babak Falsafi

Several recent studies identify the memory system as the most frequent source of hardware failures in commercial servers. Techniques to protect the memory system from failures must continue to service memory requests, despite hardware failures. Furthermore ...

Evaluating scheduling policies for fine-grain communication protocols on a cluster of SMPs

Babak Falsafi, David Wood

Distributed-memory parallel computers and networks of workstations (NOWs) both rely on efficient communication over increasingly high-speed networks. Software communication protocols are often the performance bottleneck. Several current and proposed parall ...

Sirocco: cost-effective fine-grain distributed shared memory

Babak Falsafi, James Richard Larus, David Wood

Software fine-grain distributed shared memory (FGDSM) provides a simplified shared-memory programming interface with minimal or no hardware support. Originally software FGDSMs targeted uniprocessor-node parallel machines. This paper presents Sirocco, a fam ...

Comparing multimedia storage architectures

Roger Hersch

Multimedia interfaces increase the need for large image databases, capable of storing and reading streams of data with strict synchronicity and isochronicity requirements. In order to fulfil these requirements, we use a parallel image server architecture w ...
