The performance of data intensive applications is often dominated by their input/output (I/O) operations but the I/O stack of systems is complex and severely depends on system specific settings and hardware components. This situation makes…
Network designers, planners, and security professionals increasingly rely on large-scale virtual testbeds to emulate networks and make decisions about real-world deployments. However, there has been limited research on how well these…
Since being introduced in 2020, Vision Transformers (ViT) has been steadily breaking the record for many vision tasks and are often described as ``all-you-need" to replace ConvNet. Despite that, ViTs are generally computational,…
We present an application of Artificial Intelligence techniques to the field of Information Security. The problem of remote Operating System (OS) Detection, also called OS Fingerprinting, is a crucial step of the penetration testing…
We present remote Operating System detection as an inference problem: given a set of observations (the target host responses to a set of tests), we want to infer the OS type which most probably generated these observations. Classical…
Recent progress in image recognition has stimulated the deployment of vision systems at an unprecedented scale. As a result, visual data are now often consumed not only by humans but also by machines. Existing image processing methods only…
Detecting software vulnerabilities is critical to ensuring the security and reliability of modern computer systems. Deep neural networks have shown promising results on vulnerability detection, but they lack the capability to capture global…
Dynamism is common in AI computation, e.g., the dynamic tensor shapes and the dynamic control flows in models. Due to the long compilation time, existing runtime compilation damages the model efficiency, while the offline compilers either…
The Versatile Video Coding (VVC) standard has been finalized by Joint Video Exploration Team (JVET) in 2020. Compared to the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) standard, VVC offers about 50% compression efficiency gain, in terms of…
The future generation networks: Internet of things (IoT), in combination with the advanced computer vision techniques poses new challenges for securing videos for end-users. The visual devices generally have constrained resources in…
We attempt to reduce the computational costs in vision transformers (ViTs), which increase quadratically in the token number. We present a novel training paradigm that trains only one ViT model at a time, but is capable of providing…
In recent years, networked IoT systems have revolutionized connectivity, portability, and functionality, offering a myriad of advantages. However, these systems are increasingly targeted by adversaries due to inherent security…
With more applications moving to the cloud, cloud providers need to diagnose performance problems in a timely manner. Offline processing of logs is slow and inefficient, and instrumenting the end-host network stack would violate the…
Extremely efficient convolutional neural network architectures are one of the most important requirements for limited-resource devices (such as embedded and mobile devices). The computing power and memory size are two important constraints…
This paper presents pragmatic solutions for verifying complex mathematical algorithms implemented in hardware in an efficient and effective manner. Maximizing leverage of a known-answer-test strategy, based on predefined data scenarios…
This paper presents a comparative study of virtual machines (VMs) and containers for DevOps developers. The study explores the benefits and drawbacks of each technology in terms of their functionality, performance, security, and resource…
Transient gradual typing imposes run-time type tests that typically cause a linear slowdown in programs' performance. This performance impact discourages the use of type annotations because adding types to a program makes the program…
Virtualization plays an essential role in providing security to computational systems by isolating execution environments. Many software solutions, called hypervisors, have been proposed to provide virtualization capabilities. However, only…
As quantum devices become more complex and the requirements on these devices become more demanding, it is crucial to be able to verify the performance of such devices in a scalable and reliable fashion. A cornerstone task in this challenge…
In paravirtualization, the page table management components of the guest operating systems are properly patched for the security guarantees of the hypervisor. However, none of them pay enough attentions to the performance improvements,…
