Managing Energy and Server Resources in Hosting Centers

by Jeffrey S. Chase, Darrell C. Anderson, Prachi N. Thakar, Amin M. Vahdat - In Proceedings of the 18th ACM Symposium on Operating System Principles (SOSP , 2001
"... Interact hosting centers serve multiple service sites from a common hardware base. This paper presents the design and implementation of an architecture for resource management in a hosting center op-erating system, with an emphasis on energy as a driving resource management issue for large server cl ..."

Resource Containers: A New Facility for Resource Management in Server Systems

by Gaurav Banga, Peter Druschel, Jeffrey C. Mogul - In Operating Systems Design and Implementation , 1999
"... General-purpose operating systems provide inadequate support for resource management in large-scale servers. Applications lack sufficient control over scheduling and management of machine resources, which makes it difficult to enforce priority policies, and to provide robust and controlled service. ..."

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 ..."

A framework for information systems architecture.

by J A Zachman - IBM Syst. J., , 1987
"... With increasing size and complexity of the implementations of information systems, it is necessary to use some logical construct (or architecture) for defining and controlling the interfaces and the integration of all of the components of the system. This paper defines information systems architect ..."

in complexity in information systems. The inherent limitations of the then-available 4K machines, for example, constrained design and necessitated suboptimal approaches for automating a business. Current technology is rapidly removing both conceptual and financial constraints. It is not hard to speculate about

Coda: A Highly Available File System for a Distributed Workstation Environment

by Mahadev Satyanarayanan, James J. Kistler, Puneet Kumar, Maria E. Okasaki, Ellen H. Siegel, David C. Steere - IN IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON COMPUTERS , 1990
"... Coda is a file system for a large-scale distributed computing environment composed of Unix workstations. It provides resiliency to server and network failures through the use of two distinct but complementary mechanisms. One mechanism, server replication,stores copies of a file at multiple servers ..."
