  Teaching operating systems using virtual appliances and distributed version control
Laadan O., Nieh J., Viennot N.  SIGCSE 2010 (Proceedings of the 41st ACM Technical Symposium on Computer Science Education, Milwaukee, WI, Mar 10-13, 2010) 480-484, 2010.  Type: Proceedings

This practical experience report is based on systems courses at Columbia University. The authors explain that dedicated computing resources, such as course server farms and time-sharing systems, are no longer necessary for many practic...

  Replica selection strategies in data grid
Rahman R., Alhajj R., Barker K. Journal of Parallel and Distributed Computing 68(12): 1561-1574, 2008.  Type: Article

Grid computing brings huge computational power to bear on large-scale datasets. The computational resources can be spread across multiple data centers. In many cases, the dataset must be retrieved from elsewhere in the system. When dat...

  AWOL: an adaptive write optimizations layer
Batsakis A., Burns R., Kanevsky A., Lentini J., Talpey T.  File and storage technologies (Proceedings of the 6th USENIX Conference on File and Storage Technologies, San Jose, California, Feb 26-29, 2008) 67-80, 2008.  Type: Proceedings

Dynamic policies are usually better than static policies if decisions can be made efficiently using relevant information. AWOL uses dynamic file input/output (I/O) data to adaptively allocate memory between read and write buffers, resu...

  Scalable performance of the Panasas parallel file system
Welch B., Unangst M., Abbasi Z., Gibson G., Mueller B., Small J., Zelenka J., Zhou B.  File and storage technologies (Proceedings of the 6th USENIX Conference on File and Storage Technologies, San Jose, CA, Feb 26-29, 2008) 1-17, 2008.  Type: Proceedings

Building a production-quality high-performance file system is not easy. This paper shows that such systems are complicated, both to implement and to describe. The Panasas parallel file system is a highly capable file system that utiliz...

  Consistent and compact data management in distributed storage systems
Awerbuch B., Scheideler C.  Parallelism in algorithms and architectures (Proceedings of the 16th Annual ACM Symposium on Parallelism in Algorithms and Architectures, Barcelona, Spain, Jun 27-30, 2004) 44-53, 2004.  Type: Proceedings

This paper proves theorems, and describes an algorithm for improving the efficient mapping of data objects to memory modules. Objects are composed of data blocks. Insert, delete, or update requests of objects are insert or delete reque...
