Dynamic instrumentation of production systems
TL;DR: DTrace features the ability to dynamically instrument both user-level and kernel-level software in a unified and absolutely safe fashion and features a C-like high-level control language to describe the predicates and actions at a given point of instrumentation.

Systems, Methods, and Media for Generating Multidimensional Heat Maps
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a set of methods for generating heat maps of event data, which can be classified into three categories: discrete decomposition, at least one constraint, and heat map generation.

Versioning schemes for compute-centric object stores
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a versioning scheme for compute-centric object stores, where the metadata of the first object is stored in the object store on a first path, and a copy on write link between the first path and a second path is established for the metadata clone.

Compute-centric object stores and methods of use
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a method for providing a compute-centric object store, where the first user requests a compute operation on at least a portion of an object store from a first user, the request identifying parameters of the compute operation, assigning virtual operating system containers to the objects of the object store.
