Clearing the Clouds: A Study of Emerging Workloads on Modern Hardware. The emergence of global-scale online services has galvanized scale-out software, characterized by splitting vast datasets and massive computation across many independent servers. In a paper appearing in ASPLOS 2012, Profs. Ailamaki (DIAS - Data-Intensive Applications and Systems Laboratory ) and Falsafi (PARSA - Parallel Systems Architecture Laboratory ) and their teams identify the inefficiencies in modern server processors and memory system when running emerging scale-out workloads (e.g., analytics, data serving, debugging as a service, video streaming and web) and advocate server chip architectures and hardware mechanisms that maximize silicon efficiency for these workloads. see, Clearing the Clouds: A Study of Emerging Workloads on Modern Hardware by Ferdman et al., available as an EPFL Tech. Report. EcoCloud : research center targeting energy-efficient and environmentally friendly cloud techonologies.
