Quantifying the Effects of Shared Resource Contention on Performance in Virtualiazed Systems
Abstract
This study explores the use of hardware performance counters to capture correlation between shared resource usage and performance of the system, in a virtualized computer system.This thesis found hardware events that can be used in different scheduling scenarios to capture the correlation between contention for shared resource and overall system performance. Schedulers in virtualized systems need to be studied and modified to leverage these hardware events for better scheduling decisions.
