Human-Centered Scheduling of Interactive and Multimedia Applications on a Loaded Desktop
Desktop operating systems such as Windows or Linux base scheduling decisions on the CPU usage of competing processes. Processes that exhibit low CPU usage are given priority, under the assumption that they are interactive and spend most of their time waiting for user input. However, this doesn’t work for modern multimedia applications, which require significant CPU resources, so playing a DVD m...
متن کاملA Scalable Bandwidth Guaranteed Distributed Multimedia File System Using Network Attached Autonomous Disks
Repository for multimedia data differs from that of the traditional text-based data both in storage space and streaming bandwidth requirements. The file systems used in multimedia environment need to support large volumes and high bandwidth. In this paper, we propose a novel scalable distributed file system built using Autonomous Disks. Autonomous disks are attached directly to the network and ...
متن کاملRump File Systems: Kernel Code Reborn
When kernel functionality is desired in userspace, the common approach is to reimplement it for userspace interfaces. We show that use of existing kernel file systems in userspace programs is possible without modifying the kernel file system code base. Two different operating modes are explored: 1) a transparent mode, in which the file system is mounted in the typical fashion by using the kerne...
متن کاملNizza: A Framework for Developing Real-time Streaming Multimedia Applications
Real-time multimedia applications require processing of multiple data streams while maintaining responsiveness. Development of such applications can be greatly accelerated by the use of a middleware framework that abstracts operating system dependencies and provides optimized implementations of frequently used components. In this paper we present the Nizza multimedia framework which enables rap...
متن کاملImplementing a User-Mode Linux with Minimal Changes from Original Kernel
This paper presents some aspects of implementing a User-Mode Linux with as few changes to the original Linux kernel as possible. To port a Linux kernel to a User-Mode environment, basically all parts of the kernel directly interacting with the hardware must be changed. To accomplish this, we need an environment which simulates some hardware parts. This includes simulation of interfaces to devic...
