General queuing model for optimal seamless delivery of payload processing in multi-core processors

Parallel Packet Processing on Multi-core and Many- core Processors

The Service-oriented Router (SoR), a highly functional router based on a novel router architecture, enables unprecedented web services traditional routers were unable to provide. The SoR performs Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) to analyze Layer 7 information, which is becoming increasingly difficult due to the substantial increase in Internet traffic. Meanwhile, multi-core processors and general-p...

Optimal Scheduling for Asymmetric Multi-core Server Processors

The arrival rate of jobs at servers in a data-center can vary significantly over time. The servers in data-centers are typically multi-core processors, which allow jobs to be processed at different degrees of parallelism (DoPs), i.e., the number of threads spawned by a job. In this thesis, we show analytically as well as empirically that the DoP which minimizes the service time of jobs varies w...

Embedded Multi-core Processors

Designing multi-threaded and multi-core processor architectures has become one of the most challenging projects for computer scientists in the last few years. But not only the design of such architectures for desktop computers, servers, or high performance computing (HPC) clusters has been investigated in a sophisticated manner, also in the area of embedded systems, researchers have started to ...
