Virtual machines (VMs) heavily rely on virtual CPUs (vCPUs) scheduling to achieve efficient
I/O performance. The vCPU scheduling interference can cause inconsistent scheduling …

To improve resource utilization and reduce costs many Cloud providers adopt virtual
machines (VMs) overcommitment. While effective, this strategy may lead to adverse …

The paper focuses on an under-studied yet fundamental issue on Simultaneous Multi-
Threading (SMT) processors—how to schedule I/O workloads, so as to improve I/O …

As the role of virtualization technology becomes more prevalent, the range of applications
deployed in virtualized systems is steadily growing. This increasingly includes applications …

Nowadays, there is a shift in the deployment model of Cloud and Edge applications.
Applications are now deployed as a set of several small units communicating with each …

In a virtualized computer system with shared resources, consolidated virtual services (VSs)
fiercely compete with each other to obtain the required capacity of resources, and this …

With the evolution of cloud technology, the number of user applications is increasing, and
computational workloads are becoming increasingly diverse and unpredictable. However …

The proliferation of system virtualization poses a new challenge for the coarse-grained time
sharing techniques for consolidation, since operating systems are running on virtual CPUs …

The development of IT technology in the 21st century has created a new paradigm for real-
time, data-intensive user services, such as connected cars, smart factories, and remote …

The GPU-accelerated cloud, enabled by maturing GPU virtualization techniques, has
become the most attractive platform for high-performance computing and machine learning …
