On the GPU, hash table operation speed is determined in large part by cache line efficiency, and state-of-the-art hashing schemes thus divide tables into cache line-sized buckets. This raises the question whether performance can be further…
In the past few years, General Purpose Graphics Processors (GPUs) have been used to significantly speed up numerous applications. One of the areas in which GPUs have recently led to a significant speed-up is model checking. In model…
Hash tables are an essential data-structure for numerous networking applications (e.g., connection tracking, firewalls, network address translators). Among these, cuckoo hash tables provide excellent performance by allowing lookups to be…
Cuckoo hashing [4] is a multiple choice hashing scheme in which each item can be placed in multiple locations, and collisions are resolved by moving items to their alternative locations. In the classical implementation of two-way cuckoo…
We consider space efficient hash tables that can grow and shrink dynamically and are always highly space efficient, i.e., their space consumption is always close to the lower bound even while growing and when taking into account storage…
Cuckoo hashing is a powerful primitive that enables storing items using small space with efficient querying. At a high level, cuckoo hashing maps $n$ items into $b$ entries storing at most $\ell$ items such that each item is placed into one…
Cuckoo hashing with a stash is a robust multiple choice hashing scheme with high memory utilization that can be used in many network device applications. Unfortunately, for memory loads beyond 0.5, little is known on its performance. In…
A Perfect Hash Function (PHF) is a hash function that has no collisions on a given input set. PHFs can be used for space efficient storage of data in an array, or for determining a compact representative of each object in the set. In this…
In this work, we aim to study when learned models are better hash functions, particular for hash-maps. We use lightweight piece-wise linear models to replace the hash functions as they have small inference times and are sufficiently general…
Hash tables are essential building blocks in data-intensive applications, yet existing GPU implementations often struggle with concurrent updates, high load factors, and irregular memory access patterns. We present Hive hash table, a…
We settle the question of tight thresholds for offline cuckoo hashing. The problem can be stated as follows: we have n keys to be hashed into m buckets each capable of holding a single key. Each key has k >= 3 (distinct) associated buckets…
Hash tables are ubiquitous in computer science for efficient access to large datasets. However, there is always a need for approaches that offer compact memory utilisation without substantial degradation of lookup performance. Cuckoo…
Although cuckoo hashing has significant applications in both theoretical and practical settings, a relevant downside is that it requires lookups to multiple locations. In many settings, where lookups are expensive, cuckoo hashing becomes a…
It is shown that for cuckoo hashing with a stash as proposed by Kirsch, Mitzenmacher, and Wieder (2008) families of very simple hash functions can be used, maintaining the favorable performance guarantees: with stash size $s$ the…
Cuckoo filters are space-efficient approximate set membership data structures with a controllable false positive rate (FPR) and zero false negatives, similar to Bloom filters. In contrast to Bloom filters, Cuckoo filters store multi-bit…
In this work, attempt is made to select three good hash functions which uniformly distribute hash values that permute their internal states and allow the input bits to generate different output bits. These functions are used in different…
Approximate Membership Query (AMQ) structures are essential for high-throughput systems in databases, networking, and bioinformatics. While Bloom filters offer speed, they lack support for deletions. Existing GPU-based dynamic alternatives,…
Hash functions like SHA-1 or MD5 are one of the most important cryptographic primitives, especially in the field of information integrity. Considering the fact that increasing methods have been proposed to break these hash algorithms, a…
Hash tables are used in a plethora of applications, including database operations, DNA sequencing, string searching, and many more. As such, there are many parallelized hash tables targeting multicore, distributed, and accelerator-based…
Hash tables are ubiquitous, and the choice of hash function, which maps a key to a bucket, is key to their performance. We argue that the predominant approach of fixing the hash function for the lifetime of the hash table is suboptimal and…
