This paper proposes a novel method of achieving fast networking in hosted virtual machine (VM) environments. This method, called socket-outsourcing, replaces the socket layer in a...
This paper presents the design and implementation of XenSocket, a UNIX-domain-socket-like construct for high-throughput interdomain (VM-to-VM) communication on the same system. The...
Virtualization provides the possibility of whole machine migration and thus enables a new form of fault tolerance that is completely transparent to applications and operating syst...
User-level network interfaces (UNIs) have reduced the overheads of communication by exposing the buffers used by the network interface DMA engine to the applications. This removes...
Latency tolerance is essential in achieving high performance on parallel computers for remote function calls and fine-grained remote memory accesses. EM-X supports interprocessor ...
