Cloud Formation, Evolution and Destruction
We now begin to trace the journey towards a star. How long does this take? The answer is surprisingly short: a good many clouds already contain new stars and these stars tend to be young. The typical cloud cannot spend long, if any time at all, in a dormant state. The first challenge is to accumulate gas into a molecular cloud. One dilemma is to decide what occurred first: the production of the...
متن کاملRealistic and Fast Cloud Rendering
Clouds are an important aspect of rendering outdoor scenes. This paper describes a cloud system that extends texture splatting on particles to model a dozen cloud types (e.g., stratus, cumulus congestus, cumulonimbus), an improvement over earlier systems that modeled only one type of cumulus. We also achieve fast real-time rendering, even for scenes of dense overcast coverage, which was a limit...
متن کاملBlizzard: Fast, Cloud-scale Block Storage for Cloud-oblivious Applications
Blizzard is a high-performance block store that exposes cloud storage to cloud-oblivious POSIX and Win32 applications. Blizzard connects clients and servers using a network with full-bisection bandwidth, allowing clients to access any remote disk as fast as if it were local. Using a novel striping scheme, Blizzard exposes high disk parallelism to both sequential and random workloads; also, by d...
متن کاملFast and Cautious Evolution of Cloud Storage
When changing a storage system, the stakes are high. Any modification can undermine stability, causing temporary downtime, a permanent loss of data, and still worse a loss of user confidence. This results in a cautious conservatism among storage developers. On one hand, the risks do justify taking great care with storage system changes. On the other hand, this slow and cautious deployment attit...
متن کاملScalable, Fast Cloud Computing with Execution Templates
Today, data analytics frameworks adopt one of two strategies to schedule their computations across workers. In the first strategy, systems such as Spark [3] use a centralized control plane, with a single node that dispatches small computations to worker nodes. Centralization allows a framework to quickly reschedule, respond to faults, and mitigate stragglers. However, the centralized controller...
