So that the Star Student Project interrupt from a NIC can interrupt the corresponding VCPU and schedule threads to process network packets from dedicated queues or functions in time. Star Student Project implemented all three approaches and evaluated their performance. The experimental results (see Section 5) show that the multiple tasklet solution achieves the best performance in throughput. VRSS enables multiple CPUs to process packets in parallel.
