Serverless computing is growing in popularity by virtue of its lightweight and simplicity of
management. It achieves these merits by reducing the granularity of the computing unit to …

Public cloud providers seek to meet stringent performance requirements and low hardware
cost. A key driver of performance and cost is main memory. Memory pooling promises to …

User-facing latency-sensitive web services include numerous distributed,
intercommunicating microservices that promise to simplify software development and …

Efficiently scheduling data processing jobs on distributed compute clusters requires complex
algorithms. Current systems use simple, generalized heuristics and ignore workload …

Cloud services have recently started undergoing a major shift from monolithic applications,
to graphs of hundreds or thousands of loosely-coupled microservices. Microservices …

This paper analyzes a newly-published trace that covers 8 different Borg [35] clusters for the
month of May 2019. The trace enables researchers to explore how scheduling works in …

In many public and private Cloud systems, users need to specify a limit for the amount of
resources (CPU cores and RAM) to provision for their workloads. A job that exceeds its limits …

Specialized accelerators such as GPUs, TPUs, FPGAs, and custom ASICs have been
increasingly deployed to train deep learning models. These accelerators exhibit …

The amount of CO emitted per kilowatt-hour on an electricity grid varies by time of day and
substantially varies by location due to the types of generation. Networked collections of …
