19/11/06 – dealt with some of the less enjoyable by-products of work such as patent searches for two new disclosures. Also spent some time thinking about the IOMMU performance paper we want to put together for USENIX.
20/11/06 – watched Yael in the morning, then headed into work to listen to a very interesting talk by Yaron Weinsberg on his NIC operating system work. Yaron will also give the talk in Haifa at the lab in a few weeks, ping me if you’re local and would like to attend. Spent the rest of the day in various meetings. Came up with a Pretty Cool Idea in one of them (heresy, I know – a useful meeting?!), now to see if the rest of the team buys into it. Had some hopes that the CalIOC2 machine will come back up after a lab reorg in the evening, but alas, it didn’t happen. Hopefully I’ll be able to get back to the CalIOC2 bringup and the rest of the Xen IOMMU work tomorrow.
