Numerous blockchain systems with various consensus protocols have emerged to achieve high transaction rates (2∼10K tps). However, their underlying P2P network primitives constrain further improvements due to two problems (i) high message redundancy …
Last-level cache (LLC) and memory bandwidth partitioning are commonly used in existing work to meet QoS requirements of all co-scheduled latency-critical applications consolidated on a physical server. With the increasing popularity of cloud microservices and Function-as-a-Service paradigm, the number of containers consolidated together increases significantly. However, due to the limitation of hardware features, existing work fails to support such number of applications. To bridge this gap, this project proposes CoCo, coordinated container scheduling with LLC and Memory bandwidth partitioning. Our quantitative evaluation shows that CoCo outperforms no-partitioning and baseline approaches by up to 920% and 9.4% respectively.
Just like bugs in single-threaded programs can lead to vulnerabilities, bugs in multithreaded programs can also lead to concurrency attacks. We studied 31 real-world concurrency attacks, including privilege escalations, hijacking code executions, and …
