Paravirtualized Paging
نویسندگان
چکیده
Conceptually, fast server-side page cache storage could dramatically reduce paging I/O. In this workshop extended abstract, we speculate how such a device might be used, then show how it can be implemented virtually in a hypervisor. We then introduce hcache (pronounced “aitch-cash”), our prototype implementation built on the Xen hypervisor and utilized by slightly modified Linux paravirtualized domains. We discuss the implementation and the current status of hcache, present some performance results, compare it to related work, and conclude with some speculation of other possible uses for hcache.

Towards Paravirtualized Network File Systems
The virtualized storage stack used in enterprise data centers provides two mechanisms to enable virtualized applications to store and retrieve data, namely, virtual disks and network file systems. In this paper, we examine the pros and cons of using these two mechanisms to integrate emerging non-volatile memory devices, and show how neither of them provide low-overhead access to data without sa...
متن کاملUser Independent Paging Scheme for Mobile IP
Multi-step paging has been widely proposed in personal communications services (PCS) systems to reduce the signaling overheads. Similar ideas can be applied to Mobile IP to provide IP paging services. However, current proposed multi-step paging schemes are user dependent under which the partition of paging areas and the selection of paging sequence are different for each user. The performance o...
متن کاملA cost-effective approach to selective IP paging scheme using explicit multicast
In this paper, we propose a cost effective IP paging protocol, which can be used for terminal paging in next-generation wireless IP networks. In the existing IP paging protocols, a paging request packet is delivered to access routers belonging to a paging area by unicast or multicast. However, unicast and multicast result in higher cost, so that we present a selective paging algorithm utilizing...
متن کاملBloom Filter- Cost Effective Paging Mechanism
In a high-capacity cellular network with limited spectral resources, it is desirable to minimize the radio bandwidth costs associated with paging while locating mobile users. Reduction of communication overhead has become a burning issue of today. It induces the intellects to innovate some means which are cost reducing by nature. Location management aims to reduce this overhead through predicti...
متن کاملOn Reducing Paging Cost in IP-Based Wireless/Mobile Networks
For more scalable mobile services, it is important to reduce the signaling cost for location management. In this paper, we propose a cost effective IP paging scheme utilizing explicit multicast (xcast). Xcast is a new kind of multicast scheme for small sized groups which uses unicast with low maintenance overhead. In terms of the paging algorithm, we use a selective paging scheme to minimize th...
