The Impact of Operating System Structure on Memory System Performance
, 1993
"... 1. Introduction In this paper we quantitatively evaluate the memory In this paper we evaluate the memory system behavior of system behavior of two different implementations of the two distinctly different implementations of the UNIX UNIX operating system. One system, DEC's Ultrix, has a operat ..."

The Impact of Operating System Structure on Memory System Performance
"... In this paper we evaluate the memory system behavior of two distinctly different implementations of the UNIX operating system: DEC’s Ultrix, a monolithic system, and Mach 3.0 with CMU’s UNIX server, a microkernel-based system. In our evaluation we use combined system and user memory reference traces ..."

TreadMarks: Distributed Shared Memory on Standard Workstations and Operating Systems
- IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE 1994 WINTER USENIX CONFERENCE
, 1994
"... TreadMarks is a distributed shared memory (DSM) system for standard Unix systems such as SunOS and Ultrix. This paper presents a performance evaluation of TreadMarks running on Ultrix using DECstation-5000/240's that are connected by a 100-Mbps switch-based ATM LAN and a 10-Mbps Ethernet. Ou ..."

Scale and performance in a distributed file system
- ACM Transactions on Computer Systems
, 1988
"... The Andrew File System is a location-transparent distributed tile system that will eventually span more than 5000 workstations at Carnegie Mellon University. Large scale affects performance and complicates system operation. In this paper we present observations of a prototype implementation, motivat ..."

Exokernel: An Operating System Architecture for Application-Level Resource Management
, 1995
"... We describe an operating system architecture that securely multiplexes machine resources while permitting an unprecedented degree of application-specific customization of traditional operating system abstractions. By abstracting physical hardware resources, traditional operating systems have signifi ..."

significantly limited the performance, flexibility, and functionality of applications. The exokernel architecture removes these limitations by allowing untrusted software to implement traditional operating system abstractions entirely at application-level. We have implemented a prototype exokernel-based system
Transactional Memory: Architectural Support for Lock-Free Data Structures
"... A shared data structure is lock-free if its operations do not require mutual exclusion. If one process is interrupted in the middle of an operation, other processes will not be prevented from operating on that object. In highly concurrent systems, lock-free data structures avoid common problems asso ..."

The CNS language allows the user to perform operations on data structures, such as structure factors, electron density maps, and atomic
The nesC language: A holistic approach to networked embedded systems
- In Proceedings of Programming Language Design and Implementation (PLDI
, 2003
"... We present nesC, a programming language for networked embedded systems that represent a new design space for application developers. An example of a networked embedded system is a sensor network, which consists of (potentially) thousands of tiny, lowpower “motes, ” each of which execute concurrent, ..."
