`Quality of Service (QoS?. Several authors have advocated the construction of an "oracle"(cid:173)

`we propose a radically different approach that attempts to address the underlying issues in a

`• Xenoservers: accountable execution of untrusted code
`Dickon Reed, Ian Pratt, Paul Menage, Stephen Early, Neil Stratford
`IEEE Hot Topics in Operating Systems (HotOS) VII, March 1999
`[online][gzipped postscript 57.30 KB]
`Many networked applications could benefit from executing closer to the data or services with
`which they interact. By doing this they may be able to circumvent long communication
`latencies or avoid transferring data over congested or expensive network links. However, no
`public infrastructure currently exists that enables this. We propose a system that can execute
`code supplied by an untrusted user, yet can charge this user for all resources consumed by
`the computation. Such servers could be deployed at strategic locations throughout the
`Internet, enabling network users such as content providers to distribute components of their
`applications in a manner that is both efficient and economical. We call such a server a
`Xenoserver. This paper discusses the construction of such a system, examining how
`accounting, billing, and quality of service provision can be achieved.
`
`• Self-Paging in the Nemesis Operating System
`Steven Hand
`Usenix Third Symposium on Operating Systems Design and Implementation, February 1999
`[online][gzipped postscript 150.84 KB]
`In contemporary operating systems, continuous media (CM) applications are sensitive to the
`behaviour of other tasks in the system. This is due to contention in the kernel (or in servers)
`between these applications. To properly support CM tasks, we require "Quality of Service
`Firewalling" between different applications. This paper presents a memory management
`system supporting Quality of Service (QoS) within the Nemesis operating system. It combines
`application-level paging techniques with isolation, exposure and responsibility in a manner we
`call self-paging. This enables rich virtual memory usage alongside (or even within) continuous
`media applications.

`Timothy Harris
`IEEE Workshop on Programming Languages for Real-Time Industrial Applications, December
`1998
`[gzipped postscript 43.20 KB]
`This paper describes a technique for integrating run-time compilation which is effectively
`pause free and for which the worst-case impact can be bounded. Three extensions to a JVM
`implementation are used. Firstly, a new scheduler allows the allocation of CPU time to threads
`to be controlled. Secondly, a code generator provides a mechanism for run-time compilation.
`Finally, a control interface allow application-specific compilation policies to be specified. By
`defining a compilation policy in which native code is generated in a designated compiler thread
`with a limited CPU allocation, it is possible to bound the worst-case impact of the compiler.

`Dicken Reed
`IEEE NOSSDAV98, July 1998
`[online][gzipped postscript 55.68 KB]
`Traditional audio device drivers are unable to provide low latency audio services and often do
`not provide audio mixing services. High quality audio has, compared to other media types,
`relatively low bandwidth, but is very sensitive to latency and errors. This paper presents a
`device driver abstraction that exploits the low bandwidth and constant bit rate of audio to
`provide multiple channels of low latency audio efficiently. It provides applications with a great
`deal of flexibility with regards to latency, blocking behaviour and mixing.

`IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications, 16(3), April 1998
`[gzipped postscript 117.20 KB]
`The concept of a Service Specific Control Architecture (SSCA) in an ATM environment is
`presented. Here a Control Architecture denotes the out-of-band control and management
`mechanisms operation in a network or virtual network (or part thereof). An SSCA can use
`knowledge about the application it serves to make better use of network resources and thus
`provide a more efficient service. Such a control architecture can be designed to provide only
`the subset of control functions required by the applications it serves, thereby greatly reducing
`its complexity. The switch/et mechanism, which allows more than one control architecture to
`be operational simultaneously within the same network, enables the use of service specific
`control architectures. Implementation work is presented to illustrate the use of switchlets and
`SSCAs. This includes both an environment which uses switchlets to dynamically create virtual
`networks, and an SSCA used to provide video and audio conferencing facilities in an A TM
`environment

`Richard Black, Paul Barham, Austin Donnelly, and Neil Stratford
`Proceedings of IEEE Conference on Computer Networks, November 1997
`[online][gzipped postscript 51.24 KB]
`A vertically structured Operating System is one in which neither the · 'kernel" nor · ·servers"
`perform work on behalf of applications - the former because it exists only to multiplex the CPU,
`and the latter in order to avoid Quality of Service interference between the applications.
`Instead, wherever possible, the applications perform all of their own processing. Such a
`vertical structure provides many advantages for applications but leads to some interesting
`problems and opportunities for protocol stack implementation. This paper describes the
`techniques we used in our protocol implementation and the benefits that the vertical structure
`provided.

`• A Fresh Approach to File System Quality of Service
`Paul Barham
`IEEE NOSSDAV 97, May 1997.
`[online][gzipped postscript 115.99 KB]
`This paper describes a file system structure for supporting Quality of Service (QoS)
`guarantees. The device driver model clearly separates control and data path operations and
`presents a low level of abstraction. The data path module provides translation and protection
`of 1/0 requests enabling the file system layers to be executed as unprivileged code within
`shared libraries. Scheduling of low level operations within the device driver is used to provide

`Support for multimedia applications by general purpose computing platforms has been the
`subject of considerable research. Much of this work is based on an evolutionary strategy in
`which small changes to existing systems are made. The approach adopted here is to start ab
`initio with no backward compatibility constraints. This leads to a novel structure for an
`operating system. The structure aims to decouple applications from one another and to
`provide multiplexing of all resources, not just the CPU, at a low level. The motivation for this
`structure, a design based on the structure, and its implementation on a number of hardware
`platforms is described.

`Timothy Roscoe
`ACM Operating Systems Review 29(2), April 1995
`[online][gzipped postscript 54.21 KB]
`CLANGER is a powerful, yet simple, command language for the Nemesis operating system. It
`uses runtime type information to interface directly with operating system components.
`CLANGER is a combination of command-line interpreter, scripting language, debugger and
`prototyping tool. This paper describes why such a language is possible, how it is being
`implemented, and outlines the language as it currently stands.

`• Linkage in the Nemesis Single Address Space Operating System
`Timothy Roscoe
`ACM Operating Systems Review 28(4 ), October 1994
`[online][gzipped postscript 61.17 KB]
`The recent interest in single address space operating systems has resulted in a number of
`papers, most of which gloss over the issues of linking programs to run in multiple protection
`domains. Some of the confusion about 64-bit address spaces is due to the almost pervasive
`use of UNIX and UNIX-like operating systems (such as Mach, Chorus and Amoeba) and
`languages with poor enforcement of abstraction like C and C++. This paper describes some of
`the linkage structure of Nemesis, a multi-service operating system being developed as part of
`the Pegasus project. Nemesis provides a simple and efficient mechanism for program linkage
`which provides rich sharing of text at a level of individual object classes.

`systems. While some network designers, through ATM for example, hae considered
`revolutionary approaches to supporting multimedia, the same cannot be said for operating
`systems designers. Most work is evolutionary in nature attempting to identify additional
`features that can be added to existing systems to support multimedia. Here we describe the
`Pegasus project's attempt to buil an operating system from the ground up with multimedia
`support as a prime objective.
