Abstract: An architecture to perform resource management among multiple network nodes and associated resources is disclosed. Example resource management techniques include those relating to: proactive reservation of edge computing resources; deadline-driven resource allocation; speculative edge QoS pre-allocation; and automatic QoS migration across edge computing nodes. In a specific example, a technique for service migration includes: identifying a service operated with computing resources in an edge computing system, involving computing capabilities for a connected edge device with an identified service level; identifying a mobility condition for the service, based on a change in network connectivity with the connected edge device; and performing a migration of the service to another edge computing system based on the identified mobility condition, to enable the service to be continued at the second edge computing apparatus to provide computing capabilities for the connected edge device with the identified service level.

Abstract: Embodiments for memory bandwidth monitoring extensible counters are described. In embodiments, an apparatus includes memory bandwidth monitoring hardware to monitor an event, a shared cache to be shared by multiple cores. At least one of the cores is to execute multiple threads and includes at least three registers. The first register is programmable by software to store a thread identifier of one of threads and an event identifier of the event during execution of the thread. At least one value of the event identifier corresponds to a shared cache miss. The second register is to provide to the software a second value corresponding to a number of bits available to represent the count. The third register is to provide to the software a count of occurrences of the event and an indicator to indicate whether the count reached a maximum count representable by the number of bits.

Abstract: Method and system for performing data movement operations is described herein. One embodiment of a method includes: storing data for a first memory address in a cache line of a memory of a first processing unit, the cache line associated with a coherency state indicating that the memory has sole ownership of the cache line; decoding an instruction for execution by a second processing unit, the instruction comprising a source data operand specifying the first memory address and a destination operand specifying a memory location in the second processing unit; and responsive to executing the decoded instruction, copying data from the cache line of the memory of the first processing unit as identified by the first memory address, to the memory location of the second processing unit, wherein responsive to the copy, the cache line is to remain in the memory and the coherency state is to remain unchanged.

Abstract: A processor of an aspect includes a decode unit to decode an aperture access instruction, and an execution unit coupled with the decode unit. The execution unit, in response to the aperture access instruction, is to read a host physical memory address, which is to be associated with an aperture that is to be in system memory, from an access protected structure, and access data within the aperture at a host physical memory address that is not to be obtained through address translation. Other processors are also disclosed, as are methods, systems, and machine-readable medium storing aperture access instructions.

Abstract: Technologies for analyzing and optimizing workloads (e.g., virtual network functions) executing on edge resources are disclosed. According to one embodiment disclosed herein, a compute device launches a virtualized system including a virtual network function and a performance manager, the performance manager to monitor a current resource usage of the virtual network function as a function of a performance profile. The compute device determines, in response to a determination that one or more quality-of-service (QoS) requirements is not satisfied, whether one or more resources from the platform are available for satisfying the QoS requirements. The compute device receives, in response to a determination that the one or more resources are available for satisfying the QoS requirements, the one or more resources and updates the performance profile as a function of the received resources.

Abstract: Examples may include techniques to live migrate a virtual machine (VM) using disaggregated computing resources including compute and memory resources. Examples include copying data between allocated memory resources that serve as near or far memory for compute resources supporting the VM at a source or destination server in order to initiate and complete the live migration of the VM.
