Snel is a relational database engine featuring Just-In-Time (JIT) compilation of queries and columnar data representation. Snel is designed for fast on-line analytics by leveraging the LLVM compiler infrastructure. It also has custom…
Time-series data has an increasingly growing usage in Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and large-scale scientific experiments. Managing time-series data needs a storage engine that can keep up with their constantly growing volumes while…
The increasing demand for deep neural inference within database environments has driven the emergence of AI-native DBMSs. However, existing solutions either rely on model-centric designs requiring developers to manually select, configure,…
NL2SQL approaches have greatly benefited from the impressive capabilities of large language models (LLMs). In particular, bootstrapping an NL2SQL system for a specific domain can be as simple as instructing an LLM with sufficient contextual…
Database management systems (DBMSs) are notoriously complex, making them difficult to test effectively, especially during early development when many features are incomplete. Traditional testing tools like SQLancer and SQLSmith are highly…
We present a novel, hardware-agnostic implementation strategy for lattice Boltzmann (LB) simulations, which yields massive performance on homogeneous and heterogeneous many-core platforms. Based solely on C++17 Parallel Algorithms, our…
The web contains a vast corpus of HTML tables. They can be used to provide direct answers to many web queries. We focus on answering two classes of queries with those tables: those seeking lists of entities (e.g., `cities in california')…
Entity resolution (ER; also known as record linkage or de-duplication) is the process of merging noisy databases, often in the absence of unique identifiers. A major advancement in ER methodology has been the application of Bayesian…
Large language models (LLMs) have become essential for applications such as text summarization, sentiment analysis, and automated question-answering. Recently, LLMs have also been integrated into relational database management systems to…
We introduce Glinthawk, an architecture for offline Large Language Model (LLM) inference. By leveraging a two-tiered structure, Glinthawk optimizes the utilization of the high-end accelerators ("Tier 1") by offloading the attention…
There is growing interest in visual data management systems that support queries with specialized operations ranging from resizing an image to running complex machine learning models. With a plethora of such operations, the basic need to…
We present SwiftEmbed, a production-oriented serving system for static token embeddings that achieves 1.12\,ms p50 latency for single-text requests while maintaining a 60.6 MTEB average score across 8 representative tasks. Built around the…
We explore the effectiveness of an LLM-guided query refinement paradigm for extending the usability of embedding models to challenging zero-shot search and classification tasks. Our approach refines the embedding representation of a user…
Mixed-integer programming (MIP) extends linear programming by incorporating both continuous and integer decision variables, making it widely used in production planning, logistics scheduling, and resource allocation. However, MIP remains…
While long-context inference is crucial for advancing large language model (LLM) applications, its prefill speed remains a significant bottleneck. Current approaches, including sequence parallelism strategies and compute reduction through…
Recent successes in virtual screening have been made possible by large models and extensive chemical libraries. However, combining these elements is challenging: the larger the model, the more expensive it is to run, making ultra-large…
Entity resolution is the problem of reconciling database references corresponding to the same real-world entities. Given the abundance of publicly available databases that have unresolved entities, we motivate the problem of query-time…
This paper presents Hyper-VIB, a hypernetwork-enhanced information bottleneck (IB) approach designed to enable efficient task-oriented communications in 6G collaborative intelligent systems. Leveraging IB theory, our approach enables an…
In industrial recommendation systems on websites and apps, it is essential to recall and predict top-n results relevant to user interests from a content pool of billions within milliseconds. To cope with continuous data growth and improve…
Querying tables with unstructured data is challenging due to the presence of text (or image), either embedded in the table or in external paragraphs, which traditional SQL struggles to process, especially for tasks requiring semantic…
