High-performance computing (HPC) requires resilience techniques such as checkpointing in order to tolerate failures in supercomputers. As the number of nodes and memory in supercomputers keeps on increasing, the size of checkpoint data also…
The study of hashing is closely related to the analysis of balls and bins. It is well-known that instead of using a single hash function if we randomly hash a ball into two bins and place it in the smaller of the two, then this dramatically…
Hash tables are a ubiquitous class of dictionary data structures. However, standard hash table implementations do not translate well into the external memory model, because they do not incorporate locality for insertions. Iacono and…
As a part of the IRIS-HEP "Analysis Grand Challenge" activities, the Coffea-casa AF team executed a "200 Gbps Challenge". One of the goals of this challenge was to provide a setup for execution of a test notebook-style analysis on the…
Hash tables are ubiquitous and used in a wide range of applications for efficient probing of large and unsorted data. If designed properly, hash-tables can enable efficients look ups in a constant number of operations or commonly referred…
Consistent hashing is used in distributed systems and networking applications to spread data evenly and efficiently across a cluster of nodes. In this paper, we present MementoHash, a novel consistent hashing algorithm that eliminates known…
Many computer systems for calculating the proper organization of memory are among the most critical issues. Using a tier cache memory (along with branching prediction) is an effective means of increasing modern multi-core processors'…

We introduce PaCHash, a hash table that stores its objects contiguously in an array without intervening space, even if the objects have variable size. In particular, each object can be compressed using standard compression techniques. A…
We present an efficient lock-free algorithm for parallel accessible hash tables with open addressing, which promises more robust performance and reliability than conventional lock-based implementations. ``Lock-free'' means that it is…
Modern hash table designs strive to minimize space while maximizing speed. The most important factor in speed is the number of cache lines accessed during updates and queries. This is especially important on PMEM, which is slower than DRAM…
Distributed systems often serve dynamic workloads and resource demands evolve over time. Such a temporal behavior stands in contrast to the static and demand-oblivious nature of most data structures used by these systems. In this paper, we…

A minimal perfect hash function (MPHF) maps a set S of n keys to the first n integers without collisions. There is a lower bound of n*log(e)=1.44n bits needed to represent an MPHF. This can be reached by a brute-force algorithm that tries…
Robin Hood hashing is a variation on open addressing hashing designed to reduce the maximum search time as well as the variance in the search time for elements in the hash table. While the case of insertions only using Robin Hood hashing is…
