Information of many kinds is flowing in software projects and organizations. Requirements have to flow from the customer to the developers. Testers need to know the requirements as well. Boundary conditions and design decisions have to be…
We introduce Simulation Streams, a programming paradigm designed to efficiently control and leverage Large Language Models (LLMs) for complex, dynamic simulations and agentic workflows. Our primary goal is to create a minimally interfering…
Performance analysis is challenging as different components (e.g.,different libraries, and applications) of a complex system can interact with each other. However, few existing tools focus on understanding such interactions. To bridge this…
Several methods exist today to accelerate Machine Learning(ML) or Deep-Learning(DL) model performance for training and inference. However, modern techniques that rely on various graph and operator parallelism methodologies rely on search…
With the growing adoption of Large Language Models (LLMs) in automating complex, multi-agent workflows, organizations face mounting risks from errors, emergent behaviors, and systemic failures that current evaluation methods fail to…
This paper proposes a novel way to assist conventional data address translation. The approach, PC-Indexed Data Address Translation (PCAX), uses the PC of a load instruction, and not a data virtual address, to obtain the page table entry…
As the landscape of deep neural networks evolves, heterogeneous dataflow accelerators, in the form of multi-core architectures or chiplet-based designs, promise more flexibility and higher inference performance through scalability. So far,…
It is a notable trend to use Large Language Models (LLMs) to tackle complex tasks, e.g., tasks that require a sequence of actions and dynamic interaction with tools and external environments. In this paper, we propose StateFlow, a novel…
An abstract network approach is proposed for the description of the dynamics in reactive processes. The phase space of the variables (concentrations in reactive systems) is partitioned into a finite number of segments, which constitute the…
Shared memory multiprocessors come back to popularity thanks to rapid spreading of commodity multi-core architectures. As ever, shared memory programs are fairly easy to write and quite hard to optimise; providing multi-core programmers…
Large language model (LLM)-based systems are becoming increasingly popular for solving tasks by constructing executable workflows that interleave LLM calls, information retrieval, tool use, code execution, memory updates, and verification.…
OpenFlow is a protocol implementing Software Defined Networking, a new networking paradigm, which segregates packet forwarding and accounting (performed on switches) from the routing decisions and advanced protocols (executed on a central…
In this work, we present a family of operational semantics that gradually approximates the realistic program behaviors in the C/C++11 memory model. Each semantics in our framework is built by elaborating and combining two simple…
This paper presents a stream-oriented architecture for structuring cluster applications. Clusters that run applications based on this architecture can scale to tenths of thousands of nodes with significantly less performance loss or…

The vertex-centric programming model is an established computational paradigm recently incorporated into distributed processing frameworks to address challenges in large-scale graph processing. Billion-node graphs that exceed the memory…
Layout-Aware Data Scheduler (LADS) data transfer tool, identifies and addresses the issues that lead to congestion on the path of an end-to-end data transfer in the terabit network environments. It exploits the underlying storage layout at…
Applications are increasingly written as dynamic workflows underpinned by an execution framework that manages asynchronous computations across distributed hardware. However, execution frameworks typically offer one-size-fits-all solutions…
Monitoring continuous data for meaningful signals increasingly demands long-horizon, stateful reasoning over unstructured streams. However, today's LLM frameworks remain stateless and one-shot, and traditional Complex Event Processing (CEP)…
In daily life, there are many scenarios that people need to tackle data-related tasks, such as filling out forms, analyzing Excel files, and visualize data report. However, the tools available for these tasks often fragment, requiring users…
