Memory is the most contended and least elastic resource in datacenter servers today.
Applications can use only local memory—which may be scarce—even though memory …

Memory-intensive applications suffer large performance loss when their working sets do not
fully fit in memory. Yet, they cannot leverage otherwise unused remote memory when paging …

Resource-disaggregated architectures have risen in popularity for large datacenters.
However, prior disaggregation systems are designed for native applications; in addition, all …

Wedescribe a family of caching protocols for distrib-uted networks that can be used to
decrease or eliminate the occurrence of hot spots in the network. Our protocols are …

The sharing of caches among Web proxies is an important technique to reduce Web traffic
and alleviate network bottlenecks. Nevertheless it is not widely deployed due to the …

Memory disaggregation over RDMA can improve the performance of memory-constrained
applications by replacing disk swapping with remote memory accesses. However, state-of …

Analysis of technology and application trends reveals a growing imbalance in the peak
compute-to-memory-capacity ratio for future servers. At the same time, the fraction …

The present invention is a network architecture or frame work that Supports hosting and
content distribution on a truly global scale. The inventive framework allows a Con tent …

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 …

A content delivery network has at least a first tier of servers. A content delivery method
includes, at a first server in the first tier of servers, obtaining a request from a client for a …
