Achieving convergence-free routing using failure-carrying packets
Karthik Lakshminarayanan,Matthew Caesar,Murali Rangan,Thomas Anderson,Scott Shenker,Ion Stoica +5 more
TL;DR: This work proposes a technique called Failure-Carrying Packets (FCP), a technique that allows data packets to autonomously discover a working path without requiring completely up-to-date state in routers, and shows that it provides better routing guarantees under failures despite maintaining lesser state at the routers.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Privacy-preserving P2P data sharing with OneSwarm
TL;DR: This paper describes the design and implementation of a new P2P data sharing protocol, called OneSwarm, that provides users much better privacy than BitTorrent and much better performance than Tor or Freenet.
Journal ArticleDOI
The performance implications of thread management alternatives for shared-memory multiprocessors
TL;DR: An Ethernet-style backoff algorithm is presented that largely eliminates the effect of normal methods of critical resource waiting, and can be used to to improve throughput, and in some circumstances to avoid locking, improving latency as well.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Seattle: a platform for educational cloud computing
TL;DR: A free, educational research platform called Seattle that is community-driven, a common denominator for diverse platform types, and is broadly deployed, which is invited to the computer science education community to employ Seattle in their courses.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Strata: A Cross Media File System
TL;DR: Strata is presented, a cross-media file system that leverages the strengths of one storage media to compensate for weaknesses of another, and has 20-30% better latency and throughput, compared to file systems purpose-built for each layer, while providing synchronous and unified access to the entire storage hierarchy.
