Discover how Chameleon's testbed capabilities have been enhanced with the introduction of the FABRIC Layer 3 connection in our new blog post. Learn about the powerful and flexible networking options it offers, how it simplifies the process of routing to FABRIC resources, and how it enables low-latency and high-bandwidth traffic routing between CHI@UC and CHI@TACC.
This month, we have a packed changelog, we have a lot of exciting updates with FABRIC connectivity, and we’ve added a second interface to nodes on CHI@UC that did not have one. Additionally, for Edge users, we have improvements to interacting with containers and using Jetson Nano GPUs. Lastly, there are updates to our lease stacking policies.
File systems are a fundamental part of computer systems, which organize and protect the files and data on assorted devices, including computers, smartphones, and enterprise servers. Due to its crucial role, vulnerabilities and bugs in the file system can lead to severe consequences such as data loss and system crashes. After decades of development, file systems have become increasingly complex, yet bugs continue to emerge. Meanwhile, many new file systems are invented to support new hardware or features, often without undergoing comprehensive testing. To address these gaps, we develop a checking framework (Metis) that can thoroughly and efficiently test file …

The REPETO project (an initiative funded by the NSF FAIROS RCN to build a network for practical reproducibility in experimental computer science) invites FAST’24 attendees to join our BoF sessions planned for February 27th and February 28th to learn about packaging storage research experiments on Chameleon. Pre-register with us for the BoF sessions by February 20, 2024 (link to interest form is in the blog!).
