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 ...

Tracking Transmission of Details in Paintings

Frédéric Kaplan, Isabella Di Lenardo, Benoît Laurent Auguste Seguin

In previous articles (di Lenardo et al, 2016; Seguin et al, 2016), we explored how efficient visual search engines operating not on the basis of textual metadata but directly through visual queries, could fundamen- tally change the navigation in large data ...

Contextualized ranking of entity types based on knowledge graphs

Karl Aberer, Philippe Cudré-Mauroux, Michele Catasta, Roman Prokofyev

A large fraction of online queries targets entities. For this reason, Search Engine Result Pages (SERPs) increasingly contain information about the searched entities such as pictures, short summaries, related entities, and factual information. A key facet ...

A Reconfigurable Fabric For Accelerating Large-Scale Datacenter Services

James Richard Larus

To advance datacenter capabilities beyond what commodity server designs can provide, the authors designed and built a composable, reconfigurable fabric to accelerate large-scale software services. They deployed the reconfigurable fabric in a bed of 1,632 s ...

Stream Carving: an Adaptive Seam Carving Algorithm

Pierre Vandergheynst, Alexandre Massoud Alahi

We propose a new content-aware image resizing scheme, "Stream Carving", which is based on the well-known seam carving method. Our algorithm may introduce larger seams in the retargeted image, i.e. seams with a width larger than one pixel, that we call "str ...

ResIn: A Combination of Result Caching and Index Pruning for High-performance Web Search Engines

Gleb Skobeltsyn

Results caching is an efficient technique for reducing the query processing load, hence it is commonly used in real search engines. This technique, however, bounds the maximum hit rate due to the large fraction of singleton queries, which is an important l ...

A high-performance distributed hash table for peer-to-peer information retrieval

Fabius Klemm

This thesis describes our research results in the context of peer-to-peer information retrieval (P2P-IR). One goal in P2P-IR is to build a search engine for the World Wide Web (WWW) that runs on up to hundreds of thousands or even millions computers distri ...

Distributed link-based ranking in P2P Web retrieval

Jie Wu

One of the main differences between modern search engines and traditional ones is the adoption of link-based ranking algorithm in ordering Web documents. Google has claimed that it is its link-based ranking algorithm, PageRank that has made the quality of ...
