The Study of Fast Virtual Memory Systems for Massive data Processing

本研究通过在具有10GbE和Infiniband等高速网络的集群中使用分布在节点上的远程存储器来实现快速和大容量的虚拟存储器。它使我们能够使用集群作为一个巨大的内存资源的顺序和多线程的应用程序需要大量的内存超出可用的本地内存。它实现了更稳定和更高的性能相比，传统的页面交换系统纳入操作系统内核使用本地硬盘。

This research realized the fast and large virtual memory by using remote memory distributed over nodes in a cluster, which has a high-speed network such as 10GbE and Infiniband. It enables us to use a cluster as a huge memory resource for sequential and multi-threaded applications requiring a larger amount of memory beyond available local memory. It achieved more stable and much higher performance compared to the traditional page swap system incorporated in OS kernel using local hard disks.
