OLS presentation

I just finished my first OLS presentation on Containers: Challenges with Memory Resource Controller and Its Performance

The presentation went well, it's all been recorded. Hopefully the proceedings will show up soon.

Off to Ottawa Linux Symposium

I am off to the Linux Symposium in Ottawa, I was supposed to travel to Linux Symposium Japan, but could not (unfortunately!)

You can catch me at the following events

1. Generic Process Containers
2. Where is your application stuck
3. Containers: Challenges with the memory controller
4. Resource Management BOFs

M.S. Thesis

M.S.Thesis available

I've finished my M.S. Thesis and you can find it here NOTE: The thesis might still have errors and I do not have any immediate plans of fixing the errors. The thesis was typeset using LaTeX. Hopefully, you'll enjoy reading it.

The figures require some fixing, hopefully, I'll redo them in MetaPost later.

MS (Software Systems)

I received my MS degree from BITS Pilani today. Wow! I am now qualified to do more, I feel so energized. As I am writing this blog, I look at the pile of books of my M.S. curriculum and the dissertation report of the final semester. Flashing in front of my eyes are my last minute attempts to read up a whole book in a week, my stupidity in believing that an open book examination can be passed by carrying along enough books.

Anyhow, that is the past and I learnt a lot from it. As I sit here and examine the past, I know that the process of learning never ends, but learning the same thing is rarely fun (a.k.a repeating your mistakes). But as my copy of Don Knuth's The Art of Computer Programming tells me, I'll never learn anything at once, I'll need to learn somethings during the next reading; I realize that I've just completed a small milestone in a long journey.
