Database system architectures are undergoing revolutionary changes. Most importantly, algorithms and data are being unified by integrating programming languages with the database ...
Advances in virtualization technology have focused mainly on strengthening the isolation barrier between virtual machines (VMs) that are co-resident within a single physical machi...
Modern transactional response-time sensitive applications have run into practical limits on the size of garbage collected heaps. The heap can only grow until GC pauses exceed the ...
This paper presents a technique called “workload decomposition” in which the CPU workload is decomposed in two parts: on-chip and off-chip. The on-chip workload signifies the ...
