Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) cloud computing offers customers (tenants) a scalable and
economical way to provision virtual machines (VMs) on demand while charging them only …

This paper discusses three techniques useful in relaxing the constraints imposed by control
flow on parallelism: control dependence analysis, executing multiple flows of control …

Cloud computing platforms enable users to rent computing and storage resources on-
demand to run their networked applications and employ virtualization to multiplex virtual …

Cloud computing enables users to perform their computation tasks in the public virtualized
cloud using a pay-as-you-go style. Current pay-as-you-go pricing schemes typically charge …

Ensuring stable performance for storage stacks is important, especially with the growth in

We investigate memory-management in hypervisors and propose Singleton, a KVM-based
system-wide page deduplication solution to increase memory usage efficiency. We address …

Virtualization allows computing resources to be utilized much more efficiently than those in
traditional systems, and it is a strong driving force behind commoditizing computing …

In virtualized environments, the customers who purchase virtual machines (VMs) from a third-
party cloud would expect that their VMs run in an isolated manner. However, the …

Abstract Network Attached Storage (NAS) and Virtual Machines (VMs) are widely used in
data centers thanks to their manageability, scalability, and ability to consolidate resources …
