Modern On-Line Data Intensive (OLDI) applications have evolved from monolithic systems to
instead comprise numerous, distributed microservices interacting via Remote Procedure …

Interactive services, such as Web search, recommendations, games, and finance, must
respond quickly to satisfy customers. Achieving this goal requires optimizing tail (eg, 99th+ …

With high-end systems featuring multicore/multithreaded processors and high component
density, power-aware high-performance multithreading libraries become a critical element of …

It is often assumed that to maximize the performance of a multithreaded application, the
number of threads created should equal the number of cores. While this may be true for …

Extracting performance from modern parallel architectures requires that applications be
divided into many different threads of execution. Unfortunately selecting the appropriate …

Future multicore processors will be heterogeneous, be increasingly less reliable, and
operate in dynamically changing operating conditions. Such environments will result in a …

Computing has recently reached an inflection point with the introduction of multi-core
processors. On-chip thread-level parallelism is doubling approximately every other year …

Efficiently exploiting thread-level parallelism has been challenging for software developers.
As many parallel applications do not scale with the number of cores, the task of rightly …

This paper presents ELASTIN, a stagnation-free intermittent computing system for energy-
harvesting devices that ensures forward progress in the presence of frequent power outages …

Non-volatile memory (NVM) enables intermittent systems without batteries because of the
persistence of NVM. However, the persistence presents a new challenge to memory …
