• Design and Implementation of a Consolidated Middlebox Architecture (2012, result): “Second, CoMb exhibits a reasonable scaling property similar to prior results on multicore platforms [14].”
• Scaling up matrix computations on shared-memory manycore systems with 1000 CPU cores (2014, methodology): “The main idea is to identify the data that is, either read a number of times or written once by a thread res­ident on a remote NUMA node, then utilize the runtime system to conduct data caching and movement between dif­ferent NUMA nodes.”
• Scaling Memcache at Facebook (2013, unknown): “Improving single server cache performance is an active research area [9, 10, 28, 25].”
