Distributed applications tend to have a complex design due to issues such as concurrency, synchronization and communication. Researchers in the past have proposed abstractions to ...
Current operating systems offer basic support for network interface controllers (NICs) supporting remote direct memory access (RDMA). Such support typically consists of a device d...
