Recently, Large Language Models (LLMs) have rapidly evolved, approaching Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) while benefiting from large-scale reinforcement learning to enhance Human Alignment (HA) and Reasoning. Recent reward-based…

Many existing medium access control (MAC) protocols utilize past information (e.g., the results of transmission attempts) to adjust the transmission parameters of users. This paper provides a general framework to express and evaluate…

We address the problem of checking state reachability for programs running under Total Store Order (TSO). The problem has been shown to be decidable but the cost is prohibitive, namely non-primitive recursive. We propose here to give up…

Large language models (LLMs) have shown great potential in natural language processing tasks, but their application to machine translation (MT) remains challenging due to pretraining on English-centric data and the complexity of…

Desynchronization is one of the primitive services for complex networks because it arranges nodes to take turns accessing a shared resource. TDMA is a practical application of desynchronization because it allows node to share a common…

Mutual exclusion is one of the most commonly used techniques to handle contention in concurrent systems. Traditionally, mutual exclusion algorithms have been designed under the assumption that a process does not fail while…

Efficient spectrum management in massive-scale wireless networks is increasingly challenged by explosive action spaces and the computational intractability of traditional optimization. This study proposes a Large-Scale LLM-Driven Spectrum…

The performance gap between CPU and memory widens continuously. Choosing the best memory layout for each hardware architecture is increasingly important as more and more programs become memory bound. For portable codes that run across…

Developing concurrent software is challenging, especially if it has to run on modern architectures with Weak Memory Models (WMMs) such as ARMv8, Power, or RISC-V. For the sake of performance, WMMs allow hardware and compilers to…

Deductive verification of concurrent programs under weak memory has thus far been limited to simple programs over a monolithic state space. For scalability, we also require modular techniques with verifiable library abstractions. This paper…
