Energy-Efficient Transaction Scheduling in Data Systems
(University of Waterloo, 2021-03-30)Natural short term fluctuations in the load of transactional data systems present an opportunity for power savings. For example, a system handling 1000 requests per second on average can expect more than 1000 requests in ... -
An Improved Algorithm for Tor Circuit Scheduling
(University of Waterloo, 2010-07-08)Tor is a popular anonymity-preserving network, consisting of routers run by volunteers all around the world. It protects Internet users’ privacy by relaying their network traffic through a series of routers, thus concealing ... -
Learning Energy-Aware Transaction Scheduling in Database Systems
(University of Waterloo, 2021-09-20)Servers are typically sized to accommodate peak loads, but in practice, they remain under-utilized for much of the time. During periods of low load, there is an opportunity to save power by quickly adjusting processor ... -
Tuning and Predicting Consistency in Distributed Storage Systems
(University of Waterloo, 2017-09-27)Distributed storage systems are constrained by the finite speed of propagation of information. The CAP (which stands for consistency, availability, and partition tolerance) theorem states that in the presence of network ...
