Large-scale applications require the efficient exchange of data across their distributed components, including data from heterogeneous sources and to widely varying clients. Inher...
This paper investigates what it entails to provide I/O service differentiation and performance isolation for virtual machines on individual multicore nodes in cloud platforms. Sh...
Disk performance is increasingly limited by its head positioning latencies, i.e., seek time and rotational delay. To reduce the head positioning latencies, we propose a novel tech...
Performance non-determinism in computer systems complicates evaluation, use, and even development of these systems. In performance evaluation via benchmarking and simulation, nond...
The emergence of standards for programming real-time systems in Java has encouraged many developers to consider its use for systems previously only built using C, Ada, or assembly...
