With the growing scale of big data, probabilistic structures receive increasing popularity for efficient approximate storage and query processing. For example, Bloom filters (BF) can achieve satisfactory performance for approximate…
Implementing concurrent data structures is challenging and requires a deep understanding of concurrency concepts and careful design to ensure correctness, performance, and scalability. Further, composing operations on two or more concurrent…
Skiplists are used in a variety of applications for storing data subject to order criteria. In this article we discuss the design, analysis and performance of a concurrent deterministic skiplist on many-core NUMA nodes. We also evaluate the…
Parallel programming models can encourage performance portability by moving the responsibility for work assignment and data distribution from the programmer to a runtime system. However, analyzing the resulting implicit memory allocations,…
The binary-forking model is a parallel computation model, formally defined by Blelloch et al. very recently, in which a thread can fork a concurrent child thread, recursively and asynchronously. The model incurs a cost of $\Theta(\log n)$…
Ctrie is a scalable concurrent non-blocking dictionary data structure, with good cache locality, and non-blocking linearizable iterators. However, operations on most existing concurrent hash tries run in O(log n) time. In this technical…
Modern societies have developed insatiable demands for more computation capabilities. Exploiting implicit parallelism to provide automatic performance improvement remains a central goal in engineering future general-purpose computing…
There is an ongoing effort to provide programming abstractions that ease the burden of exploiting multicore hardware. Many programming abstractions (e.g., concurrent objects, transactional memory, etc.) simplify matters, but still involve…
Behavior Trees (BTs) have become a popular framework for designing controllers of autonomous agents in the computer game and in the robotics industry. One of the key advantages of BTs lies in their modularity, where independent modules can…
In this work, we present a new benchmarking suite with new real-life inspired skewed workloads to test the performance of concurrent index data structures. We started this project to prepare workloads specifically for self-adjusting data…
Maintaining a dynamic $k$-core decomposition is an important problem that identifies dense subgraphs in dynamically changing graphs. Recent work by Liu et al. [SPAA 2022] presents a parallel batch-dynamic algorithm for maintaining an…
We study the problem of constructing concurrent objects in a setting where $P$ processes run in parallel and interact through a shared memory that is subject to write contention. Our goal is to transform hardware primitives that are subject…
Modern high performance computing (HPC) systems exhibit a rapid growth in size, both "horizontally" in the number of nodes, as well as "vertically" in the number of cores per node. As such, they offer additional levels of hardware…
A key part of implementing high-level languages is providing built-in and default data structures. Yet selecting good defaults is hard. A mutable data structure's workload is not known in advance, and it may shift over its lifetime - e.g.,…
Modular trapped-ion quantum computing hardware, known as QCCDs require shuttling operations in order to maintain effective all-to-all connectivity. Each module or trap can perform only one operation at a time, resulting in low intra-trap…
Manual parallelization of code remains a significant challenge due to the complexities of modern software systems and the widespread adoption of multi-core architectures. This paper introduces OMPar, an AI-driven tool designed to automate…
Garbage Collection in concurrent data structures, especially lock-free ones, pose multiple design and consistency challenges. In this instance, we consider the case of concurrent sets. A set is a collection of elements, where the elements…
FIFO queues are a fundamental data structure used in a wide range of applications. Concurrent FIFO queues allow multiple execution threads to access the queue simultaneously. Maintaining strict FIFO semantics in concurrent queues leads to…
Control parallelism and data parallelism is mostly reasoned and optimized as separate functions. Because of this, workloads that are irregular, fine-grain and dynamic such as dynamic graph processing become very hard to scale. An…
This paper investigates approaches to parallelizing Bounded Model Checking (BMC) for shared memory environments as well as for clusters of workstations. We present a generic framework for parallelized BMC named Tarmo. Our framework can be…
