This paper reports our experimentation results with TCP Selective Acknowledgments TCP-Sack, which became an Internet Proposed Standard protocol recently. To understand the perfo...
Securing data is more important than ever, yet cryptographic file systems still have not received wide use. One barrier to the adoption of cryptographic file systems is that the...
Left unchecked, the fundamental drive to increase peak performance using tens of thousands of power hungry components will lead to intolerable operating costs and failure rates. R...
This paper investigates helper threads that improve performance by prefetching data on behalf of an application’s main thread. The focus is data prefetch helper threads that lac...
