Abstract: Techniques are provided to allow more sophisticated operations to be performed remotely by machines that are not fully functional. Operations that can be performed reliably by a machine that has experienced a hardware and/or software error are referred to herein as Remote Direct Memory Operations or “RDMOs”. Unlike RDMAs, which typically involve trivially simple operations such as the retrieval of a single value from the memory of a remote machine, RDMOs may be arbitrarily complex. The techniques described herein can help applications run without interruption when there are software faults or glitches on a remote system with which they interact.

Abstract: An object is to provide a communication device, a communication method, and a program that make it possible to suppress an increase in the communication band due to communication via a GWR when Dual Connectivity is implemented, without making an additional setting on base stations. A communication device according to the present invention enables a communication packet to be transferred through a path that is shorter than conventional paths, and can therefore suppress an increase in the communication band. Also, this short cut of the communication path need only be set on the communication device, and need not be additionally set on the base stations.

Abstract: A network device (PE), a network control method and program which can reduce a BUM traffic packet loss even when a time is taken for route recalculation according to a routing protocol due to a malfunction in a network infrastructure are provided. A network device according to the present invention requests each PE connected to the same ES as that of the network device to perform DF reelection on the basis of a redundant PE list from which the network device has been deleted when cease of a BGP session is detected. In addition, the PE requested to perform the DF reelection executes the DF reelection based on the redundant PE list from which the aforementioned PE has been deleted. In the present invention, BUM traffic can be immediately forwarded from a PE that has become a new DF even when a time is taken for route recalculation according to the routing protocol because another PE connected to the same ES is caused to serve as a DF when the BGP session is ceased.

Abstract: In example implementations, a method include receiving a request for a lock in a Mellor-Crummey Scott (MCS) lock protocol from a guest user that is context free (e.g., a process that does not bring a queue node). The lock determines that it contains a null value. The lock is granted to the guest user. A pi value is received from the guest user to store in the lock. The pi value notifies subsequent users that the guest user has the lock.

Abstract: Example implementations disclosed herein can be used to build, maintain, and access databases built database in multi-core computing systems with large VRAM and huge NVRAM. The database with optimistic concurrency control can be built on a transactional key-value data store that includes logically equivalent data pages stored in both VRAM and VRAM. Data records in volatile data pages in the VRAM represent the most recent version of the data. Data records in the NVRAM immutable and are organized in a stratified composite snapshot. A distributed log gleaner process is used to process entries corresponding to transactions on the volatile data pages and construct the snapshot. The log gleaner sorts the log entries by epoch, key range, and most recent use to partition the snapshot across multiple nodes.

Abstract: Techniques are described for offloading remote direct memory operations (RDMOs) to “execution candidates”. The execution candidates may be any hardware capable of performing the offloaded operation. Thus, the execution candidates may be network interface controllers, specialized co-processors, FPGAs, etc. The execution candidates may be on a machine that is remote from the processor that is offloading the operation, or may be on the same machine as the processor that is offloading the operation. Details for certain specific RDMOs, which are particularly useful in online transaction processing (OLTP) and hybrid transactional/analytical (HTAP) workloads, are provided.

Abstract: Hybrid concurrency control in a database transaction is disclosed. A contention value associated with a database object is read. The contention value is dynamically updated based on access patterns of the database object. If the contention value indicates the database object is under high contention, a pessimistic concurrency control mechanism is applied to the database object. An optimistic concurrency control mechanism is applied to the database object if the contention value does not indicate the database object is under high contention.
