This is the first post in a series of posts on different approaches to systems security especially as they apply to hardware and architectural security. The class of techniques described in this blog post, which we broadly refer to as applied hardware and architecture cryptography, apply proven cryptographic techniques to strengthen systems.

It enables the user to measure database performance and make comparative judgements about database hardware and software. These factors meant that often when looking for database performance information, the results for a particular combination of software and hardware were not available. What is HammerDB? Why HammerDB was developed.

Wasm functions contain native codes compiled at runtime, so they should not be directly migrated as normal JavaScript objects. These use their regression models to estimate processing time (which will depend on the hardware available, current load, etc.). The MWW System prototype is implemented in Chrome for the browser, and Node.js

Today, I’d like to share with you these tools so that you too can increase your efficiency and your comfort in your daily job. Even if it was never really proved, I also believe that staying on the keyboard makes us more efficient. That being said, efficiency is not the main goal here. But first, a bit of theory.

Introduction: In December 2017, my colleague Damon McDougall (now at AMD) asked for help in porting the fused multiply-add example code from a Colfax report ( [link] ) to the Xeon Phi x200 (Knights Landing) processors here at TACC. Instead, we found puzzle after puzzle. Instead, we found puzzle after puzzle.

Have we optimized enough with tree-shaking, scope hoisting, code-splitting, and all the fancy loading patterns with intersection observer, progressive hydration, clients hints, HTTP/3, service workers and — oh my — edge workers? It’s much easier to reach performance goals when the code base is fresh or is just being refactored.

Although modern iOS hardware is powerful enough to handle many intensive and complex tasks, the device could still feel unresponsive if you are not careful about how your app performs.

It uses a Solaris Porting Layer (SPL) to provide a Solaris-kernel interface on Linux, so that unmodified ZFS code can execute. There's also a ZFS send/recv code path that should try to use the TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE flag (as suggested by a coworker), to avoid a kernel hang (can't kill -9 the process). LTS (April 2016).

” Each step has been a twist on “what if we could write code to interact with a tamper-resistant ledger in real-time?” Hadoop’s value—being able to crunch large datasets—often paled in comparison to its costs. Doubly so as hardware improved, eating away at the lower end of Hadoop-worthy work.

We can also expect QUIC-specific hardware to become available.
