A distributed shared buffer space for data-intensive applications
2005
CCGrid 2005. IEEE International Symposium on Cluster Computing and the Grid, 2005.
A prototype, implemented in the context of a distributed storage system, has been validated with several networking technologies, showing that such a framework can combine performance and flexibility. ...
We propose separating control and data transfer traffic by accessing data through a DSM-like cluster-wide shared buffer space and only including buffer references in the control messages. ...
Efficient buffer handling within a single networked system has been attacked by IO-Lite [17] -a unified buffering and caching infrastructure. ...

2008
ACM SIGOPS Operating Systems Review
PipesFS extends the pipeline model to kernel I/O and communicates with applications through a Linux virtual filesystem (VFS), where directory nodes represent operations and pipe nodes export live kernel ...
This paper presents PipesFS, an I/O architecture for Linux 2.6 that increases I/O throughput and adds support for heterogeneous parallel processors by (1) collapsing many I/O interfaces onto one: the Unix ...

TPF: TCP Plugged File System for Efficient Data Delivery over TCP
2007
IEEE transactions on computers
As a consequence, TPF provides minimal context switching overhead, high buffer utilization, and highly effective disk access utilization. We have implemented and tested the mechanisms in Linux 2.4. ...
The second is the inefficient uniform data prefetching for TCP connections, irrespective of their characteristics such as bandwidth, latency, and the status of a send buffer. ...

Measurement, analysis and performance improvement of the Apache Web server
1999
1999 IEEE International Performance, Computing and Communications Conference (Cat. No.99CH36305)
In this paper we measure and analyze the behavior of the popular Apache Web server on a uniprocessor system and a 4-CPU SMP (Symmetric Multi-Processor) system running the IBM AIX operating system. ...
Finally, our results suggest that operating system support for directly sending data from the file system cache to the TCP/IP network can further improve the Web server performance dramatically. £ A preliminary ...
Acknowledgments Erich Nahum at IBM Watson read an early draft of this paper and gave many constructive comments and suggestions that greatly improved this paper. ...
