Hoard: A Scalable Memory Allocator for Multithreaded ApplicationsEmery Berger
Fast and effective memory management is crucial for many applications, including web servers, database managers, and scientific codes. However, current memory managers do not provide adequate support for these applications on modern architectures, severely limiting their performance, scalability, and robustness.
In this talk, I describe how to design memory managers that support high-performance applications. I first address the software engineering challenges of building efficient memory managers. I then show how current general-purpose memory managers do not scale on multiprocessors, cause false sharing of heap objects, and systematically leak memory. I describe a fast, provably scalable general-purpose memory manager called Hoard (available at www.hoard.org) that solves these problems, improving performance by up to a factor of 60.
The document discusses Talkbits' use of Apache Cassandra in Amazon EC2, including deploying Cassandra across 3 availability zones with a replication factor of 3 for strong consistency, as well as performing periodic full backups, incremental backups on SSTable changes, and continuous transaction log backups to Amazon S3 using tools like TableSnap. It also covers Cassandra consistency options and semantics for different read and write quorum settings.
Storm is an open source distributed real-time processing system. It allows real-time processing of streaming data through spouts that emit tuples into streams, which are then processed by bolts. A Storm cluster has a master node called Nimbus that coordinates task assignment, and worker nodes called supervisors that execute the tasks. All state is stored in a ZooKeeper cluster for fault tolerance. Topologies define the graph of computation through spouts, streams, and bolts.
To exchange data between processes without the overhead of locking/syscall, shared memory can be used. libshdata/telemetry offers a lock free circular buffer with timestamped data chunks to handle some typical uses cases found in drones:
One process for flying stack, and one a more processes for video computing.
Video processing can access drone attitude precisely with the frame
Logging of all the telemetry exchanged in shared memory is easily written in a file or to a remote ground station
Also work in AMP configurations
This document summarizes findings from testing the bandwidth and power capabilities of the Single Chip Cloud (SCC) framework. Key findings include:
- The SCC framework achieved maximum bandwidth by using one channel per core-pair with a large 1MB window size and fast polling of incoming data.
- External monitoring of the SCC's voltage and current was used to keep the chip under safe power conditions. The backend power API allows setting frequency and voltage levels.
- Internal synchronization of clock cycles across cores was needed since cores start at different cycle counts after reset. Frequency changes also require updating time calculations.
- Testing found issues with voltage readings from the baseboard management controller and contention when too many cores polled
Presentation from the Boulder/Denver Big Data Meetup on 2/20/2020 in Boulder, CO. Topics covered: Troubleshooting Spark jobs (groupby, shuffle) for big data, tuning AWS EMR Spark clusters, EMR cluster resource utilization, writing scaleable Scala for scanning S3 metadata.

Vibration in IC engines is a significant factor to be considered while designing IC engine as it can have a negative impact on various engine components. This happens when the natural frequency of component coincides with the forced frequency produce by the engine leading to the phenomenon of resonance.
STRENGTH AND PERMEABILITY STUDIES ON CONCRETE WITH NANO-CEMENTIAEME Publication
This document summarizes a study on the strength and permeability of concrete with nano-cement. Nano-cement was produced by grinding regular Portland cement in a high-energy ball mill to reduce particle size to the nano scale. Concrete mixtures with 0-50% replacement of cement with nano-cement were tested. Testing found that compressive strength increased with higher nano-cement content. Permeability decreased with nano-cement content, indicating nano-cement produces a denser, less permeable concrete. The nano-cement particles filled pores and reduced permeability compared to regular cement concrete.
AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON PARTIAL REPLACEMENT OF CEMENT WITH BAGASSE ASH IN CO...IAEME Publication
Objectives: There is an increase in demand and utilization of cement and many scientists are in search for developing alternative binding materials that can be eco-friendly and helps towards waste management. The use of agricultural and industrial waste produced can help in reduction of waste is in focus. Methods: In this work one of the agro waste named sugarcane bagasse ash (SCBA) has been used as partial replacement of cement. SCBA is produced by burning of sugarcane bagasse which is left after extraction of juice from sugarcane. At high temperature under controlled condition bagasse is burned to obtain ash which contains high amorphous silica. In this paper the cement by weight is replaced by 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 25% by SCBA in concrete. Findings: A comparison is made for 0% and other percentages by conducting different tests named compressive strength test, flexural strength test and split tensile strength test for 7 days and 28 days. Improvements: The test results shows that Sugarcane Bagasse Ash can be utilized for partial replacement of cement up to 15% by weight of cement without any major loss in strength.

Linux containers (LXC) provide operating system-level virtualization using features of the Linux kernel such as cgroups, namespaces, and chroot. This allows for the creation of lightweight isolated environments called containers that share the kernel of the host system. Containers offer many advantages over traditional virtual machines such as near-native performance, flexibility, and lightweight resource usage. The document discusses the key building blocks and technologies that underpin LXC such as cgroups for resource control and namespaces for process isolation. It also covers the benefits of using LXC and how container images are realized on Linux.
The document presents Factored Operating Systems (FOS), a new operating system designed for multicore and cloud systems. FOS addresses the scalability and fault tolerance challenges of these environments by factoring the OS into distributed, message-passing services like file system, scheduling, and memory management. It provides a single system image across cores and machines using naming and messaging. Evaluation shows FOS improves performance and scalability over traditional OSes for applications and filesystem operations in multicore and cloud deployments.
This document summarizes a lecture on the Google File System (GFS). Some key points:
1. GFS was designed for large files and high scalability across thousands of servers. It uses a single master and multiple chunkservers to store and retrieve large file chunks.
2. Files are divided into 64MB chunks which are replicated across servers for reliability. The master manages metadata and chunk locations while clients access chunkservers directly for reads/writes.
3. Atomic record appends allow efficient concurrent writes. Snapshots create instantly consistent copies of files. Leases and replication order ensure consistency across servers.

Windows is a popular operating system that runs on both PCs and servers. It provides a large collection of software solutions due to its popularity. While early versions of Windows were not true operating systems, modern versions like Windows Server provide stable and secure platforms for business applications and services. Failover clustering allows applications to remain highly available by failing over from one node to another in the case of hardware or software failures. The performance of an operating system depends on the underlying hardware, application load, and OS configuration.
The document discusses five main types of operating systems: batch, time-sharing, distributed, network, and real-time. Batch operating systems group similar jobs into batches to be processed when the computer is idle. Time-sharing systems allow multiple users to access a single system simultaneously by rapidly switching between tasks. Distributed systems connect independent computers over a network to share resources. Network operating systems run on servers to manage shared access to files, printers, and other resources over a private network. Real-time systems have very strict time constraints to process inputs and require fast response times, such as for robots, air traffic control, and medical devices.

Advanced control scheme of doubly fed induction generator for wind turbine us...IJECEIAES
This paper describes a speed control device for generating electrical energy on an electricity network based on the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) used for wind power conversion systems. At first, a double-fed induction generator model was constructed. A control law is formulated to govern the flow of energy between the stator of a DFIG and the energy network using three types of controllers: proportional integral (PI), sliding mode controller (SMC) and second order sliding mode controller (SOSMC). Their different results in terms of power reference tracking, reaction to unexpected speed fluctuations, sensitivity to perturbations, and resilience against machine parameter alterations are compared. MATLAB/Simulink was used to conduct the simulations for the preceding study. Multiple simulations have shown very satisfying results, and the investigations demonstrate the efficacy and power-enhancing capabilities of the suggested control system.
Electric vehicle and photovoltaic advanced roles in enhancing the financial p...IJECEIAES
Climate change's impact on the planet forced the United Nations and governments to promote green energies and electric transportation. The deployments of photovoltaic (PV) and electric vehicle (EV) systems gained stronger momentum due to their numerous advantages over fossil fuel types. The advantages go beyond sustainability to reach financial support and stability. The work in this paper introduces the hybrid system between PV and EV to support industrial and commercial plants. This paper covers the theoretical framework of the proposed hybrid system including the required equation to complete the cost analysis when PV and EV are present. In addition, the proposed design diagram which sets the priorities and requirements of the system is presented. The proposed approach allows setup to advance their power stability, especially during power outages. The presented information supports researchers and plant owners to complete the necessary analysis while promoting the deployment of clean energy. The result of a case study that represents a dairy milk farmer supports the theoretical works and highlights its advanced benefits to existing plants. The short return on investment of the proposed approach supports the paper's novelty approach for the sustainable electrical system. In addition, the proposed system allows for an isolated power setup without the need for a transmission line which enhances the safety of the electrical network
Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoringIJECEIAES
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.

LSF @ AMD – History
•We’ve used LSF for 7 years, from K6 to the
Opteron and beyond
•My group has 3 large clusters-the largest with
several thousand systems—mostly Athlon Linux.
3. 3
Large LSF Clusters = Hard Work!
•How do we do it?
•A Great LSF Team
•Finding and using good tools
•I’ll talk about types of tools and some specific
examples
28 May 2003
4. 4
Tools by Example
•These examples are from our large environment
•They should be useful anywhere people want to
work smartr.

Grim Reality: Thousands of Systems
•System Database
–MySQL + Perl + local programs
–Updated daily, automatically
•Trouble Ticket Database
–RT - Request Tracker
–Used by sysadmins and customers
28 May 2003
6. 6
Coordination: Large Systems Team,
Large Customer Base
•RT: trouble ticket system
•We use RT to track:
–Track customer problems
–Track bugs in vendor software
–Schedule and control changes to the LSF cluster
•You need one of these, unless you like to work too
hard.

Test or Change Many or All!
Systems?
•We use clsh (the cluster shell) to run programs on
many systems serially or in parallel.
•Clsh can execute programs in our cluster at over
600 systems/minute.
•Example: run `uname –a’ on all systems in the
tx_linux netgroup:
–$ clsh –ng tx_linux ‘uname –a’
•Scared yet?
–$ sudo clsh –ng tx_linux ‘halt’

Programs Crashing or Hanging?
•Trace a running program
–# strace -p <PID>
•Run a program while tracing it
–$ strace –t –v –f /bin/hostname
•Everything is a file, find the files
–$ lsof -p <PID>

The Tool for Tools - Perl
•Obvious facts (?)
–Cross-platform
–Great software library (CPAN)
–Well known in the EDA and Unix world
–Fun to use (for some strange folks, anyway)
–The strong attractive force

The Second Law / Entropy
•Entropy is
•Misteaks happen
•RCS/CVS/SCCS/…
–You must use revision control, or chaos will win
•Sudo
–Use sudo for root access, for logging and assigning limited
privilege

Acute vs Chronic Trouble
•How do we diagnose and fix symptoms that are not
easily reproduced?
•Lsfbug-a program for users
– Saves Unix environment
– Saves LSF environment
– Submits a test job to LSF
– Emails the output to the LSF team
28 May 2003

Cross-Platform Compatibility
•Use similar paths for similar tools – regardless of
the OS or OS version
– Perl should always be at the same place – even for AIX and Linux
and HP-UX and …
•Install user tools on NFS servers
•Use package management software (opt_depot,
stow)
•Install systems w/Kickstart/Jumpstart/Ignite
