This paper examines NFS sensitivity to performance characteristics of emerging networks. We adopt an unusual method of inserting controlled delays into live systems to measure sen...
In this paper we extend a previously introduced method for optimizing the arbitration policy employed by ServerNet routers and we evaluate the method's effect on scalability....

This paper describes an implementation of parallel LU factorization. The focus is to achieve high performance on non-dedicated clusters, where the number of available computing re...
Access latency to secondary storage devices is frequently a limiting factor in computer system performance. New storage technologies promise to provide greater storage densities a...

We propose, and justify, an economic theory to guide memory system design, operation, and analysis. Our theory treats memory random-access latency, and its cost per installed mega...
