Information-Centric Networking (ICN) is an appealing architecture that has received a
remarkable interest from the research community thanks to its friendly structure. Several …

As a cache eviction algorithm, FIFO has a lot of attractive properties, such as simplicity,
speed, scalability, and flash-friendliness. The most prominent criticism of FIFO is its low …

The delivery of video content is expected to gain huge momentum, fueled by the popularity
of user-generated clips, growth of VoD libraries, and wide-spread deployment of IPTV …

The memory coherence problem in designing and implementing a shared virtual memory on
loosely coupled multiprocessors is studied in depth. Two classes of algorithms, centralized …

We consider cluster-based network servers in which a front-end directs incoming requests to
one of a number of back-ends. Specifically, we consider content-based request distribution …

Advances in network and processor technology have greatly changed the communication
and computational power of local-area workstation clusters. However, operating systems still …

This paper presents the design of a new Web server architecture called the asymmetric multi-
process eventdriven (AMPED) architecture, and evaluates the performance of an …

Modern high-end disk arrays often have several gigabytes of cache RAM. Unfortunately,
most array caches use management policies which duplicate the same data blocks at both …

The majority of the Internet population access the World Wide Web via dial-up modem
connections. Studies have shown that the limited modem bandwidth is the main contributor …

Remote memory techniques for datacenter applications have recently gained a great deal of
popularity. Existing remote memory techniques focus on the efficiency of a single application …
