The Amoeba Distributed Operating System

by Andrew S. Tanenbaum, Gregory J. Sharp, De Boelelaan A , 1992
"... INTRODUCTION Roughly speaking, we can divide the history of modern computing into the following eras: d 1970s: Timesharing (1 computer with many users) d 1980s: Personal computing (1 computer per user) d 1990s: Parallel computing (many computers per user) Until about 1980, computers were huge, e ..."

people's computers or share files in various (often ad hoc) ways. Nowadays some systems have many processors per user, either in the form of a parallel computer or a large collection of CPUs shared by a small user community. Such systems are usually called parallel or distributed computer systems

Disconnected Operation in the Coda File System

by James J. Kistler, M. Satyanarayanan - ACM Transactions on Computer Systems , 1992
"... Disconnected operation is a mode of operation that enables a client to continue accessing critical data during temporary failures of a shared data repository. An important, though not exclusive, application of disconnected operation is in supporting portable computers. In this paper, we show that di ..."

that disconnected operation is feasible, efficient and usable by describing its design and implementation in the Coda File System. The central idea behind our work is that caching of data, now widely used for performance, can also be exploited to improve availability.

Monitors: An Operating System Structuring Concept

The Skyline Operator

by Stephan Börzsönyi, Donald Kossmann, Konrad Stocker - IN ICDE , 2001
"... We propose to extend database systems by a Skyline operation. This operation filters out a set of interesting points from a potentially large set of data points. A point is interesting if it is not dominated by any other point. For example, a hotel might be interesting for somebody traveling to Nass ..."

K-theory for operator algebras

by Bruce Blackadar - Mathematical Sciences Research Institute Publications , 1998
"... p. XII line-5: since p. 1-2: I blew this simple formula: should be α = −〈ξ, η〉/〈η, η〉. p. 2 I.1.1.4: The Riesz-Fischer Theorem is often stated this way today, but neither Riesz nor Fischer (who worked independently) phrased it in terms of completeness of the orthogonal system {e int}. If [a, b] is a ..."

Exokernel: An Operating System Architecture for Application-Level Resource Management

by Dawson R. Engler, M. Frans Kaashoek, James O’toole , 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 ..."

TreadMarks: Distributed Shared Memory on Standard Workstations and Operating Systems

by Pete Keleher , Alan L. Cox, Sandhya Dwarkadas, Willy Zwaenepoel - 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 ..."
Abstract - Cited by 526 (17 self) - Add to MetaCart
. Our objective is to determine the efficiency of a user-level DSM implementation on commercially available workstations and operating systems. We achieved good speedups on the 8-processor ATM network for Jacobi (7.4), TSP (7.2), Quicksort (6.3), and ILINK (5.7). For a slightly modified version

Real-Time Dynamic Voltage Scaling for Low-Power Embedded Operating Systems

by Padmanabhan Pillai, Kang G. Shin , 2001
"... In recent years, there has been a rapid and wide spread of nontraditional computing platforms, especially mobile and portable computing devices. As applications become increasingly sophisticated and processing power increases, the most serious limitation on these devices is the available battery lif ..."
Abstract - Cited by 501 (4 self) - Add to MetaCart

However, for a large class of applications in embedded real-time systems like cellular phones and camcorders, the variable operating frequency interferes with their deadline guarantee mechanisms, and DVS in this context, despite its growing
