Abstract— Packet delay and bandwidth are two important metrics for measuring quality of service (QoS) of Internet services. Traditionally, packet delay differentiation and fair b...
We have studied DRAM-level prefetching for the fully buffered DIMM (FB-DIMM) designed for multi-core processors. FB-DIMM has a unique two-level interconnect structure, with FB-DIM...
Virtualization is increasingly being used to address server management and administration issues like flexible resource allocation, service isolation and workload migration. In a...
