Grid computing is a collection of computer resources that are gathered together from various areas to give computational resources such as storage, data or application services. This is to permit clients to access this huge measure of…

High-performance computing (HPC) requires resilience techniques such as checkpointing in order to tolerate failures in supercomputers. As the number of nodes and memory in supercomputers keeps on increasing, the size of checkpoint data also…

CheckSync provides applications with high availability via runtime-integrated checkpointing. This allows CheckSync to take checkpoints of a process running in a memory-managed language (Go, for now), which can be resumed on another machine…

Load balancing is critical for distributed storage to meet strict service-level objectives (SLOs). It has been shown that a fast cache can guarantee load balancing for a clustered storage system. However, when the system scales out to…

Grid Computing is a type of parallel and distributed systems that is designed to provide reliable access to data and computational resources in wide area networks. These resources are distributed in different geographical locations, however…

One of the major challenges in using extreme scale systems efficiently is to mitigate the impact of faults. Application-level checkpoint/restart (CR) methods provide the best trade-off between productivity, robustness, and performance.…

The single-chip crosspoint-queued (CQ) switch is a compact switching architecture that has all its buffers placed at the crosspoints of input and output lines. Scheduling is also performed inside the switching core, and does not rely on…

In order to efficiently use the future generations of supercomputers, fault tolerance and power consumption are two of the prime challenges anticipated by the High Performance Computing (HPC) community. Checkpoint/Restart (CR) has been and…

Systematic checkpointing of the machine state makes restart of execution from a safe state possible upon detection of an error. The time and energy overhead of checkpointing, however, grows with the frequency of checkpointing. Amortizing…

Caching is crucial for enabling high-throughput networks for data intensive applications. Traditional caching technology relies on DRAM, as it can transfer data at a high rate. However, DRAM capacity is subject to contention by most system…

Spot instances offer a cost-effective solution for applications running in the cloud computing environment. However, it is challenging to run long-running jobs on spot instances because they are subject to unpredictable evictions. Here, we…

Iterative methods are commonly used approaches to solve large, sparse linear systems, which are fundamental operations for many modern scientific simulations. When the large-scale iterative methods are running with a large number of ranks…

The storage stack in the traditional operating system is primarily optimized towards improving the CPU utilization and hiding the long I/O latency imposed by the slow I/O devices such as hard disk drivers (HDDs). However, the emerging…

We consider the problem of checkpointing a distributed application efficiently in Content Centric Networks so that it can withstand transient failures. We present CCNCheck, a system which enables a sender optimized way of checkpointing…

State-of-the-art stream processing platforms make use of checkpointing to support fault tolerance, where a "checkpoint tuple" flows through the topology to all operators, indicating a checkpoint and triggering a checkpoint operation. The…

The success of Google's Pregel framework in distributed graph processing has inspired a surging interest in developing Pregel-like platforms featuring a user-friendly "think like a vertex" programming model. Existing Pregel-like systems…

Although every individual invented storage technology made a big step towards perfection, none of them is spotless. Different data store essentials such as performance, availability, and recovery requirements have not met together in a…

The growing demand for efficient cloud storage solutions has led to the widespread adoption of Solid-State Drives (SSDs) for caching in cloud block storage systems. The management of data writes to SSD caches plays a crucial role in…

This paper presents an empirical study on the feasibility of using Checkpoint/Restore In Userspace (CRIU) for run-time application migration between hosts, with a particular focus on edge computing and cloud infrastructures. The paper…

The state of the art in Grid style data management is to achieve increased resilience of data via multiple complete replicas of data files across multiple storage endpoints. While this is effective, it is not the most space-efficient…
