Title
SLIM: Mmap from the cloud to device, and back
Abstract
In the era of cloud computing, mobile applications often need to leverage a new storage hierarchy that includes not only the traditional main memory and secondary storage on devices, but also storage and computation capabilities from the cloud. In this paper we propose a new data structure library called SLIM. SLIM provides familiar STL-like interfaces and abstractions while accommodates the storage hierarchy that transcends device/cloud boundary. Initial evaluation shows that using SLIM can greatly simplify application development and reduce network and energy cost compared with traditional approaches.
