      Haghi, Abbas; Álvarez Martí, Lluc; Polo Bardés, Jorda; Diamantopoulos, Dionysios; Hagleitner, Christoph; Moretó Planas, Miquel (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020)
      Conference report
      Open Access
      Advances in Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies have caused the proliferation of genomic applications to detect DNA mutations and guide personalized medicine. These applications have an enormous computational ...
    • Burst-aware predictive autoscaling for containerized microservices 

      Abdullah, Muhammad; Iqbal, Waheed; Berral García, Josep Lluís; Polo Bardés, Jorda; Carrera Pérez, David (2022-05-01)
      Article
      Open Access
      Autoscaling methods are used for cloud-hosted applications to dynamically scale the allocated resources for guaranteeing Quality-of-Service (QoS). The public-facing application serves dynamic workloads, which contain bursts ...
    • DRMaestro: orchestrating disaggregated resources on virtualized data-centers 

      Carneiro do Amaral, Marcelo; Polo Bardés, Jorda; Carrera Pérez, David; González, Nelson; Yang, Chih-Chieh; Morari, Alessandro; D'Amora, Bruce; Youssef, Alaa; Steinder, Malgorzata (Springer, 2021-03-06)
      Article
      Open Access
      Modern applications demand resources at an unprecedented level. In this sense, data-centers are required to scale efficiently to cope with such demand. Resource disaggregation has the potential to improve resource-efficiency ...
    • Enabling genomics pipelines in commodity personal computers with flash storage 

      Cadenelli, Nicola; Jun, Sang-Woo; Polo Bardés, Jorda; Wright, Andrew J.; Carrera Pérez, David; Mithal, Arvind (Frontiers Media SA, 2021-04)
      Article
      Open Access
      Analysis of a patient’s genomics data is the first step toward precision medicine. Such analyses are performed on expensive enterprise-class server machines because input data sets are large, and the intermediate data ...
    • Large-scale video analytics through object-level consolidation 

      Rivas Barragan, Daniel; Guim Bernat, Francesc; Polo Bardés, Jorda; Berral García, Josep Lluís; Carrera Pérez, David (Springer, 2022)
      Conference report
      Open Access
      As the number of installed cameras grows, so do the compute resources required to process and analyze all the images captured by these cameras. Video analytics enables new use cases, such as smart cities or autonomous ...
    • Performance characterization of video analytics workloads in heterogeneous edge infrastructures 

      Rivas Barragan, Daniel; Guim Bernat, Francesc; Polo Bardés, Jorda; Carrera Pérez, David (Wiley (John Wiley & Sons), 2023-06-25)
      Article
      Open Access
      Powered by deep learning, video analytic applications process millions of camera feeds in real-time to extract meaningful information from their surroundings. And this number grows by the minute. To avoid saturating the ...
    • Performance evaluation of data-centric workloads in serverless environments 

      Nestorov, Anna Maria; Polo Bardés, Jorda; Misale, Claudia; Carrera Pérez, David; Youssef, Alaa (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2021)
      Conference report
      Open Access
      Serverless computing is a cloud-based execution paradigm that allows provisioning resources on-demand, freeing developers from infrastructure management and operational concerns. It typically involves deploying workloads ...
    • Towards automatic model specialization for edge video analytics 

      Rivas Barragan, Daniel; Guim Bernat, Francesc; Polo Bardés, Jorda; Silva, Pubudu Madhawa; Berral García, Josep Lluís; Carrera Pérez, David (Elsevier, 2022-09)
      Article
      Open Access
      The number of cameras deployed to the edge of the network increases by the day, while emerging use cases, such as smart cities or autonomous driving, also grow to expect images to be analyzed in real-time by increasingly ...
    • Workload-aware placement strategies to leverage disaggregated resources in the datacenter
