SR-IOV capable network devices offer the benefits of direct I/O throughput and reduced CPU utilization while greatly increasing the scalability and sharing capabilities of the devi...
Abstract—Cloud systems provide a cost-effective service hosting infrastructure for application service providers (ASPs). However, cloud systems are often shared by multiple tenan...
I/O intensive workloads running in virtual machines can suffer massive performance degradation. Direct assignment of I/O devices to virtual machines is the best performing I/O vir...
Machine learning techniques are applicable to computer system optimization. We show that shared memory multiprocessors can successfully utilize machine learning algorithms for mem...
