  2. 11. Accelerating Distributed Storage in Heterogeneous Settings

    Author : Waleed Reda; Dejan Kostic; Peter Van Roy; Marco Chiesa; Adam Morrison; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Distributed storage; File systems; Hardware offload; Persistent memory; Distribuerad lagring; Dilsystem; Maskinvaruavlastning; Beständigt minne; Computer Science; Datalogi;

    Abstract : Heterogeneity in cloud environments is a fact of life—from workload skews and network path changes, to the diversity of server hardware components, these are all factors that impact the performance of distributed storage. In this dissertation, we identify that heterogeneity can in fact be one of the primary causes of service degradation for storage systems. READ MORE

  4. 12. Towards Secure Synchronous Communication Architectures for Wireless Networks
