Improving file system performance with adaptive methods
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present modifications to the log-structured file system that allow it to provide robust write performance in a wide range of environments and also present a dynamic reorganization algorithm that makes disk layout responsive to read patterns.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Rack-level Congestion Control
TL;DR: This paper argues for rack-level congestion control in which all connections are tunneled through rack-to-rack JumboFlows, which allows an entire rack’s connections to cooperate with one another for better fairness and performance, particularly for short flows.

RAIL: A Case for Redundant Arrays of Inexpensive Links in Data Center Networks.
Danyang Zhuo,Monia Ghobadi,Ratul Mahajan,Amar Phanishayee,Xuan Kelvin Zou,Hang Guan,Arvind Krishnamurthy,Thomas Anderson +7 more
TL;DR: RAIL, a system to ensure that in a data center networks, applications only use paths that meet their performance needs, can reduce the network cost by up to 10% for 10 Gbps networks and 44% for 40Gbps networks, without affecting the applications’ performance.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A Vision for Runtime Programmable Networks
Jiarong Xing,Yiming Qiu,Kuo-Feng Hsu,Hongyi Liu,Matty Kadosh,Alan Lo,Aditya Akella,Thomas Anderson,Arvind Krishnamurthy,T. S. Eugene Ng,Ang Chen +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors lay out a vision for runtime programmable networks, building upon device-level features to provide live, network-wide, runtime reprogramming, and outline a research agenda as a call to arms.
An information plane for internet applications
TL;DR: This dissertation designs, builds, and evaluates an information plane for the Internet, called iPlane, that enables distributed applications to discover information about Internet paths without explicit measurement, and uses information fromiPlane to drive path selection in three representative distributed applications.
