With the ongoing digitalisation of our everyday tasks, more and more eGovernment services make it possible for citizens to take care of their administrative obligations online. This type of services requires a certain assurance level for…
The MPI standard has long included one-sided communication abstractions through the MPI Remote Memory Access (RMA) interface. Unfortunately, the MPI RMA chapter in the 4.0 version of the MPI standard still contains both well-known and…
This paper investigates hardware-based memory compression designs to increase the memory bandwidth. When lines are compressible, the hardware can store multiple lines in a single memory location, and retrieve all these lines in a single…
Outsourced computation can put client data confidentiality at risk. Existing solutions are either inefficient or insufficiently secure: cryptographic techniques like fully-homomorphic encryption incur significant overheads, even with…
Multiplexed Rank DIMMs (MRDIMMs) have recently emerged as memory devices that enable higher bandwidth without increasing DRAM chip frequencies. This paper presents a detailed performance, power and energy evaluation of a production server…
Many high end and next generation computing systems to incorporated alternative memory technologies to meet performance goals. Since these technologies present distinct advantages and tradeoffs compared to conventional DDR* SDRAM, such as…
Deep neural network (DNN) inference is increasingly being executed on mobile and embedded platforms due to low latency and better privacy. However, efficient deployment on these platforms is challenging due to the intensive computation and…
In this article, we provide both analytical and numerical performance analysis of multi-service oriented multiple access (MOMA), a recently proposed non-orthogonal multiple-access scheme for scenarios with a massive number of concurrent…
Mobile phones are now widely adopted by most of the world population. Each time a call is made (or an SMS sent), a Call Detail Record (CDR) is generated by the telecom companies for billing purpose. These metadata provide information on…
Reducing network latency in mobile applications is an effective way of improving the mobile user experience and has tangible economic benefits. This paper presents PALOMA, a novel client-centric technique for reducing the network latency by…
In this work, we aim to evaluate different Distributed Lock Management service designs with Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA). In specific, we implement and evaluate the centralized and the RDMA-enabled lock manager designs for fast…
The erosion of trust put in traditional database servers, the growing interest for different forms of data dissemination and the concern for protecting children from suspicious Internet content are different factors that lead to move the…
We can use a hybrid memory system consisting of DRAM and Intel Optane DC Persistent Memory (We call it DCPM in this paper) as DCPM is now commercially available since April 2019. Even if the latency for DCPM is several times higher than…
The rapid adoption of Mobile Money Services (MMS) in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) offers a viable path to improve e-Government service accessibility in the face of persistent low internet penetration. However, existing Mobile Money…
The rise of intelligent autonomous systems, especially in robotics and autonomous agents, has created a critical need for robust communication middleware that can ensure real-time processing of extensive sensor data. Current robotics…
Recent data protection and data governance regulations have intensified the demand for interoperable, decentralized data ecosystems that can support not only access control but also legally-aligned governance over data use. Existing…
Multiple news sources over the years have reported on the problematic effects of Digital Rights Management, yet there are no reforms for DRM development, simply removal. The issues are well-known to the public, frequently repeated even when…
This work introduces, for the first time, non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) into short-packet communications to achieve low latency in wireless networks. Specifically, we address the optimization of transmission rates and power…
This dissertation rigorously characterizes many modern commodity DRAM devices and shows that by exploiting DRAM access timing margins within manufacturer-recommended DRAM timing specifications, we can significantly improve system…
The present work focus on the implementation and analyze of performance of a low-resolution OFDM system prototype with low-cost hardware. A software defined radio (SDR) system was chosen in this implementation due to its various advantages…
