Safety applications in vehicle-to-everything communications and Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems rely on reliable and timely message exchange, which in turn depends on accurate modeling of wireless signal propagation. Simulation…
Adjacent GEMM problems that differ by a single 128-element step in N can show 30% different throughput on the same GPU. This pervasive performance ruggedness - invisible to roofline analysis and peak-FLOPs intuition, yet dominant for every…
Large Language Models (LLMs) have revolutionized AI applications, but deploying them at scale presents significant challenges. We present RTP-LLM, a high-performance inference engine for industrial-scale LLM deployment, successfully…
Large language models have achieved remarkable capabilities through scaling, and this paper does not challenge that. It instead investigates a different question: once large models already exist, can they become more accessible to…
Mathematical programming is widely employed across various sectors - such as logistics, energy, and workforce planning - to model and solve industrial optimisation problems, but its use requires substantial domain expertise. Large language…
Effective code optimization in compilers is crucial for computer and software engineering. The success of these optimizations primarily depends on the selection and ordering of the optimization passes applied to the code. While most…
Modern equality saturation systems excel at expression-level rewrites by exploring large spaces of equivalent programs without suffering from the phase-ordering problem. How- ever, these systems struggle to represent equivalence directly…
Half precision (FP16) promises to double FFT throughput on GPUs, but the prevailing view is that its 10-bit mantissa makes it unsuitable for radar-grade signal processing. We show this framing is wrong on Apple Silicon: the binding…
Markdown skill libraries for LLM agents ship as free-form prose, forcing the agent to re-derive both the input schema and the concrete invocation syntax on every retrieval. We observe that this often produces a "confused -> re-retrieve ->…
Despite rapid progress in LLM-based code generation, existing models are predominantly trained on imperative languages, leaving functional programming languages (FPLs) such as Haskell, OCaml, and Scala chronically underexplored, with even…
A real-time multicore system requires delay bounds on access to shared resources. These resources include the kernel, which has potentially many non-preemptible critical sections guarded by one or more different synchronization primitives.…
Specification synthesis, the task of automatically inferring formal specifications from program implementations and natural language, is important for refactoring, transpilation, optimization, and verification, yet remains an open challenge…
As Python is increasingly being adopted for large and complex programs, the importance of static analysis for Python (such as type inference) grows. Unfortunately, static analysis for Python remains a challenging task due to its dynamic…
Prolog is a well-known declarative programming language commonly used in introductory courses on logic and reasoning. However, many students find Prolog challenging because it lacks the familiar debugging mechanisms found in imperative…
In a computer system, multiple indispensable components-such as the CPU, memory, and others-work together with other essential components to produce an overall effect, which can only be measured on an independently running system. Since the…
Stream-based monitoring is a runtime verification approach where a monitor aggregates streams of input data from sensors and other sources to give real-time statistics and assessments of a system's health. One of the central challenges in…
Graph pattern mining is important for analyzing graph data. Graph mining systems typically require answering pattern matching queries, which involve solving the NP-complete subgraph isomorphism problem. To address this, domain experts often…
Linux is the foundation of the digital age, accounting for the majority of the cloud and mobile OS markets. Any device that runs Linux uses the Linux page cache, a central pillar in OS and application performance, serving to reduce…
AI systems increasingly synthesize executable structure at runtime: LLMs generate programs, agents construct workflows,self-improving systems modify their own behavior. In classical homoiconic and staged languages, the transition from code…
Just as the $\lambda$-calculus uses three primitives (abstraction, application, variable) as the foundation of functional programming, inheritance-calculus uses three primitives (record, definition, inheritance) as the foundation of…
