Symmetric Multi-Processing (SMP) virtual machine (VM), or virtual SMP for short, enables a single virtual machine to span multiple processors, thereby supporting the virtual machine to run resource-intensive applications. In addition to offering higher computing capacity, virtual SMP also offers the opportunity to alleviate the problem of unpredictable I/O responsiveness. To this end, we propose vINT...
Single-root I/O virtualization (SR-IOV) has become the de facto standard of network virtualization in cloud infrastructure. Owing to the high interrupt frequency and heavy cost per interrupt in high-speed network virtualization, the performance of network virtualization is closely correlated to the computing resource allocation policy in Virtual Machine Manager (VMM). Therefore, more sophisticated...
In recent years, desktop virtualization trends to be a new extension of virtualization framework. The existing desktop virtualization systems suffer performance degradation in terms of response time and video quality. However, previous remote access approaches are designed for standalone architectures and require semantic information which is not transparent to OS. So they are not feasible in desktop...
Memory failures are common in clusters, and their destructive effects (e.g., increasing downtime and losing data) make users suffer great loss. Current memory availability strategies mostly require extra expensive hardware. Software approaches based on check pointing technologies intend to reduce the expense, but their high overhead limits the practical usage. In this paper, we present a novel system...
Nowadays, one of the most important goals of data center management is to maximize their profit by minimizing power consumption and service-level agreement (SLA) violations of hosted applications. System dynamics make it difficult to implement optimization in both aspects on shared infrastructures. A majority of existing works either focused on one aspect or applied models that are trained offline...
Today's data center often employs virtualization to allow multiple enterprise applications to share a common hosting platform in order to improve resource and space utilization. It could be a greater challenge when the shared server becomes overloaded or enforces priority of the common resource among applications in such an environment. In this paper, we propose Apad, a feedback-based resource allocation...
System virtualization, which provides good isolation, is now widely used in server consolidation. Meanwhile, one of the hot topics in this field is to extend virtualization for embedded systems. However, current popular virtualization platforms do not support real-time operating systems such as embedded Linux well because the platform is not real-time ware, which will bring low-performance I/O and...
In Recent years embedded world has been undergoing a shift from traditional single-core processors to processors with multiple cores. However, this shift poses a challenge of adapting legacy uniprocessor-oriented real-time operating system (RTOS) to exploit the capability of multi-core processor. In addition, some embedded systems are inevitably going towards the direction of integrating real-time...
