TreadMarks: Distributed Shared Memory on Standard Workstations and Operating Systems
- P. Keleher, A. Cox, S. Dwarkadas, W. Zwaenepoel
- Computer Science
- USENIX Winter
- 17 January 1994
TreadMarks is a distributed shared memory (DSM) system for standard Unix systems such as SunOS and Ultrix. This paper presents a performance evaluation of TreadMarks running on Ultrix using… Expand
ThreadMarks: Shared Memory Computing on Networks of Workstations
- C. Amza, A. Cox, +5 authors W. Zwaenepoel
- Computer Science
- Computer
- 1 February 1996
Shared memory facilitates the transition from sequential to parallel processing. Since most data structures can be retained, simply adding synchronization achieves correct, efficient programs for… Expand
Lazy release consistency for software distributed shared memory
- P. Keleher, A. Cox, W. Zwaenepoel
- Computer Science
- ISCA '92
- 1 May 1992
Relaxed memory consistency models, such as release consistency, were introduced in order to reduce the impact of remote memory access latency in both software and hardware distributed shared memory… Expand
The Hadoop distributed filesystem: Balancing portability and performance
- Jeffrey Shafer, S. Rixner, A. Cox
- Computer Science
- IEEE International Symposium on Performance…
- 28 March 2010
Hadoop is a popular open-source implementation of MapReduce for the analysis of large datasets. To manage storage resources across the cluster, Hadoop uses a distributed user-level filesystem. This… Expand
Characterization of peptides bound to the class I MHC molecule HLA-A2.1 by mass spectrometry.
- D. Hunt, R. A. Henderson, +6 authors V. Engelhard
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Science
- 6 March 1992
Antigens recognized by T cells are expressed as peptides bound to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules. Microcapillary high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray… Expand
Maestro: A System for Scalable OpenFlow Control
The fundamental feature of an OpenFlow network is that the controller is responsible for the initial establishment of every flow by contacting related switches. Thus the performance of the controller… Expand

Scheduling I/O in virtual machine monitors
This paper explores the relationship between domain scheduling in avirtual machine monitor (VMM) and I/O performance. Traditionally, VMM schedulers have focused on fairly sharing the processor… Expand
Optimizing network virtualization in Xen
- A. Menon, A. Cox, W. Zwaenepoel
- Computer Science
- 30 May 2006
In this paper, we propose and evaluate three techniques for optimizing network performance in the Xen virtualized environment. Our techniques retain the basic Xen architecture of locating device… Expand

Adaptive cache coherency for detecting migratory shared data
Parallel programs exhibit a small number of distinct data-sharing patterns. A common data-sharing pattern, migratory access, is characterized by exclusive read and write access by one processor at a… Expand
Translation caching: skip, don't walk (the page table)
- Thomas W. Barr, A. Cox, S. Rixner
- Computer Science
- ISCA '10
- 19 June 2010
This paper explores the design space of MMU caches that accelerate virtual-to-physical address translation in processor architectures, such as x86-64, that use a radix tree page table. In particular,… Expand
