The increasing use of high-bandwidth and low-latency networks make possible the use of remote (network) memory as an alternative to disk means of storing an application's dat...
New high-speed networks greatly encourage the use of network memory as a cache for virtual memory and file pages, thereby reducing the need for disk access. Becausepages are the f...
Previous studies indicate that I/O could become a performance bottleneck in commodity PC-based cluster Web servers. Current local native file systems do not work well for expensiv...
The aIOLi project aims at optimizing the I/O accesses within the cluster by providing a simple POSIX API, thus avoiding the constraints to use a dedicated parallel I/O library. Th...
As CMP platforms are widely adopted, more and more cores are integrated on to the die. To reduce the off-chip memory access, the last level cache is usually organized as a distribu...
