PerfIso: Performance Isolation for Commercial Latency-Sensitive Services

Sameh Mohamed Elnikety, Calin Iorgulescu

Large commercial latency-sensitive services, such as web search, run on dedicated clusters provisioned for peak load to ensure responsiveness and tolerate data center outages. As a result, the average load is far lower than the peak load used for provision ...

How to Measure the Killer Microsecond

Aikaterini Argyraki, Edouard Bugnion, Mia Primorac

Datacenter-networking research requires tools to both generate traffic and accurately measure latency and throughput. While hardware-based tools have long existed commercially, they are primarily used to validate ASICs and lack flexibility, e.g. to study n ...

Abstracting Multi-Core Topologies with MCTOP

Rachid Guerraoui, Vasileios Trigonakis, Georgios Chatzopoulos

Portability and efficiency are usually antagonists in multi-core computing. In order to develop efficient code, one needs to take into account the topology of the target multi-cores (e.g., for locality). This clearly hampers code portability. In this paper ...

Improved Utility-based Congestion Control for Low-Delay Communication

Pascal Frossard, Laura Toni, Sergio Mena, Stefano D'Aronco

Due to the presence of buffers in the inner network nodes, each congestion event leads to buffer queueing and thus to an increasing end-to-end delay. In the case of delay sensitive applications, a large delay might not be acceptable and a solution to prope ...

A 51.4 Mb/s FSK Transmitter Employing a Phase Domain Digital Synthesizer with 1.5 mu s Start-up for Energy Efficient Duty Cycling

Christian Enz, Nicola Scolari, David Ruffieux, Raghavasimhan Thirunarayanan

This paper presents a low start-up latency Transmitter (TX) that can achieve FSK data rates of upto 51.4 Mb/s for deployment in duty cycled microsensor nodes. Utilizing a Phase Domain Digital Synthesizer with an FBAR frequency reference, this TX has a star ...

Cheap Data Analytics using Cold Storage Devices

Anastasia Ailamaki, Raja Appuswamy, Renata Borovica-Gajic

Enterprise databases use storage tiering to lower capital and operational expenses. In such a setting, data waterfalls from an SSD-based high-performance tier when it is "hot" (frequently accessed) to a disk-based capacity tier and finally to a tape-based ...

The IX Operating System: Combining Low Latency, High Throughput, and Efficiency in a Protected Dataplan

Edouard Bugnion, Christos Kozyrakis, Georgios Prekas, Mia Primorac

The conventional wisdom is that aggressive networking requirements, such as high packet rates for small messages and μs-scale tail latency, are best addressed outside the kernel, in a user-level networking stack. We present ix, a dataplane operating system ...

PriFi: A Low-Latency and Tracking-Resistant Protocol for Local-Area Anonymous Communication

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Bryan Alexander Ford, Mahdi Zamani, Italo Ivan Dacosta Petrocelli, Ludovic Barman

Popular anonymity mechanisms such as Tor provide low communication latency but are vulnerable to traffic analysis attacks that can de-anonymize users. Moreover, known traffic-analysis-resistant techniques such as Dissent are impractical for use in latency- ...
