No worries, I relinquish any and all claims I might have had for this
thread.

So, it occurs to me that Haifux hasn't met in ages. Would there by
interest in a talk about a new profit-maximizing operating system I
built called nom?

Here's the abstract:

  In the near future, cloud providers will sell their users virtual
  machines with CPU, memory, network, and storage resources whose
  prices constantly change according to market-driven supply and
  demand conditions. Running traditional operating systems in these
  virtual machines is a poor fit: traditional operating systems are
  not aware of changing resource prices and their sole aim is to
  maximize performance with no consideration of costs. Consequently,
  they yield low profits.

  We present nom,  a profit-maximizing operating system designed for
  cloud computing platforms with dynamic resource prices. Applications
  running on nom aim to maximize profits by optimizing for both
  performance and resource costs. The nom kernel provides them with
  direct access to the underlying hardware and full control over their
  private software stacks. Since nom applications know there is no
  single “best” software stack, they adapt their stacks’ behavior on
  the fly according to the current price of available resources and
  their private valuations of them.  We show that in addition to
  achieving up to 3.9x better throughput and up to 9.1x better
  latency, nom applications yield up to 11.1x higher profits when
  compared with the same applications running on Linux and OSv.

ObLinux: yes, there is a Linux angle.

Cheers,
Muli

Diego, if you refer to the "sender-picture", than Kmail simply match the sender 
with your addressbook.
That's why you see one picture, I may see another and Muli doesn't know what 
you are talking about ;-)

Nope, that's related to DKIM signature used to help some spam-filters.

Sending HTML mail to this list was an accident, but you found something 
interesting.

Here are the details:
 * Sometime I communicate with corporate users and in the beginning I used
   the same text/plain format as always.

 * However, unlike modern mail clients, their mail clients display quoted
   and unquoted text exactly the same (yes, Outlook. I'm looking at you).

 * The result is that it's very hard for them to read a mix of
   quoted/unquoted text. Which explains why top-posting is so common
   among users of that legacy mail client :-(

 * As a workaround, I started sending them HTML mail and apply a different
   visual style to the quoted text before mixing my reply text.
   The style I used was: green text (as in kmail), small font and ITALICS.
   This way they get a reasonable rendering of the intermixed text.

 * As Baruch just observed, in the text/plain version, kmail convert the italics
   to: /text-text-text/

Conclusions:
 * Re-check non-HTML mail before sending (IIRC, kmail used to have non-HTML/HTML
   settings per-corespondent or per-folder -- but maybe I'm wrong).

 * When replying to corporate users, don't mark the quoted text with italics,
   only with color+size, so the visual rendering of text/plain would be more
   consistent with text/html.

Thanks for the heads-up,

[Haifux] Fwd: compiler/tools/architecture conference

2015-08-04 Thread Muli Ben-Yehuda
Might interest some of you. Apologies if you receive multiple copies.

CALL FOR PAPERS

Compiler, Architecture and Tools Conference (CATC) 
Intel Development Center, Haifa, Israel 
November 23rd, 2015

http://software.intel.com/compilerconf2015

Endorsed by the HiPEAC Network of Excellence


IMPORTANT DATES

* Paper Submission deadline: August 6th, 2015

* Author Notification: September 10th, 2015

* Conference date: November 23rd, 2015



OVERVIEW

The interaction among advanced compilation techniques, modern
processor and computing architectures, and associated tools continues
to face new challenges and opportunities. Traditional demands to
increase performance, reduce power consumption, and reduce time to
market now apply to heterogeneous, virtualized and diverse
user-experience environments.

Extensive data and task parallelism are being exposed by new
programming environments such as Halide, Swift, and OpenMP version
4.0, relying on innovative architectures, compilers, binary
translation and runtime tools.

This conference will focus on these exciting new directions and how
they are influencing the architecture and compilation domain. The
conference will be held in a format similar to that held last year
leaving time for networking and presentations.

TOPICS

The main focus of this conference is the interaction of compiler
technologies, processor and computing architectures and tools to
address the latest programming environments and demands. The topics of
interest for this conference include, but are not limited to:

* Compilers, runtime and tools for modern server, client, mobile and
  embedded systems

* Compiler/hardware support for hiding memory and I/O latencies

* Compilation to hardware

* Dynamic translation and optimization

* Heterogeneous parallel architectures and computational models

* GPU, accelerator and coprocessor architectures

* Power/Performance/Monitoring tools for application behavior
  understanding

* Parallel programming languages, algorithms and applications

* Internet of Things

INVITED SPEAKERS

We are delighted to have Dr. Youfeng Wu, Principal Research Scientist
at Intel and Prof. Mooly (Shmuel) Sagiv from Tel-Aviv University as
our keynote speakers.

VENUE

The conference will take place at Intel Development Center
(bldg. IDC9) in Matam Industrial Park, Haifa, Israel. Lunch and light
refreshments will be served. Participation in the conference is free
of charge, but registration is required. The official language of the
conference is English.

SUBMISSION

Authors should submit an abstract of their contributions by email to
Gadi Haber (gadi.ha...@intel.com). Submissions must include an
abstract of 100-300 words and contact information. The authors are
encouraged to provide related documents with additional details on
their research work, such as an extended abstract, paper, and/or
links. Abstracts and eventually presentations will be provided online
at the conference webpage. The conference does not include
proceedings, however, with author approval, papers may appear online
and extended versions of the best papers may be included in a special
issue of IJPP.

In addition, authors may submit papers recently presented in (or
accepted to) top-tier conferences in the areas of interest.

ORGANIZERS

Ayal Zaks, Dorit Nuzman, Gadi Haber, Leeor Peled, Michal Nir; Intel
Development Center, Haifa (first.last at intel.com) Erez Petrank;
