note = "Funding Information: Partial funding for the Open Cirrus UIUC site was provided by NSF. Funding for the Open Cirrus CMU/PDL site was provided by Intel, NSF, ARO, and the PDL Consortium. Open Cirrus is a trademark of Yahoo! Inc. Several people made significant contributions to Open Cirrus, including A. Chien, R. Gass, K. Goswami, C. Hsiung, J. Kistler, M. Ryan, C. Whitney, and especially J. Wilkes, who was instrumental in formulating the original Open Cirrus vision as well as the concept of a management layer like Zoni. Funding Information: Open Cirrus (http://opencirrus.org) aims to address this problem by providing a single testbed of heterogeneous distributed data centers for systems, applications, services, and open source development research. The project is a joint initiative sponsored by Hewlett-Packard (HP), Intel, and Yahoo! in collaboration with the NSF, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC), the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), the Infocomm Development Authority (IDA) of Singapore, the Russian Academy of",
