SUMMARY:GPU Acceleration in Unikernels Using Cricket GPU Virtualization
DESCRIPTION:Niklas Eiling, Martin Kröning, Jonathan Klimt, Philipp Fensch,
  Stefan Lankes, and Antonello Monti (RWTH Aachen University)\n\nTo achieve
  maximum performance on current heterogeneous architectures, applications 
 have to be tailored to the available hardware by using special APIs to int
 eract with the hardware resources, such as the CUDA APIs for NVIDIA GPUs. 
 Simultaneously, unikernels emerge as a solution for the increasing overhea
 d introduced by the complexity of modern operating systems and their inabi
 lity to optimize for specific application profiles. Despite this, there is
  a lack of support for using GPUs in unikernels. We propose using Cricket 
 GPU virtualization to introduce GPU support to the unikernels RustyHermit 
 and Unikraft. To interface with Cricket, we implement a generic library fo
 r using ONC RPCs in Rust. With Cricket and our RPC library, unikernels are
  able to use GPU resources, even when they are installed in remote machine
 s. This way, we enable the use of unikernels for applications that require
  the high parallel performance of GPUs to achieve manageable execution tim
 es.\n\nTag: Middleware and System Software, Programming Frameworks and Sys
