Nowadays, the Hierarchical Storage System (HSS) is considered as an ideal model to meet the cost-performance demand. The data migration between storing tiers of HSS is the way to achieve the cost-performance goal. The bandwidth control is…

The scaling up of deep neural networks has been demonstrated to be effective in improving model quality, but also encompasses several training challenges in terms of training efficiency, programmability, and resource adaptability. We…

Federated Learning (FL) has been proposed as an appealing approach to handle data privacy issue of mobile devices compared to conventional machine learning at the remote cloud with raw user data uploading. By leveraging edge servers as…

Users of MapReduce often run into performance problems when they scale up their workloads. Many of the problems they encounter can be overcome by applying techniques learned from over three decades of research on parallel DBMSs. However,…

Edge computing faces unprecedented resource orchestration challenges from multi-dimensional heterogeneity across device architectures, diverse task requirements in CPU-intensive, GPU-intensive, I/O-intensive, and dynamic network conditions.…

The objective of this work was to utilize BigBench [1] as a Big Data benchmark and evaluate and compare two processing engines: MapReduce [2] and Spark [3]. MapReduce is the established engine for processing data on Hadoop. Spark is a…

The necessity for cooperation among intelligent machines has popularised cooperative multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) in AI research. However, many research endeavours heavily rely on parameter sharing among agents, which confines…

Advanced biological intelligence learns efficiently from an information-rich stream of stimulus information, even when feedback on behaviour quality is sparse or absent. Such learning exploits implicit assumptions about task domains. We…

Animals use a wide variety of strategies to reduce or avoid aggression in conflicts over resources. These strategies range from sharing resources without outward signs of conflict to the development of dominance hierarchies, in which…

Huge amounts of data being generated continuously by digitally interconnected systems of humans, organizations and machines. Data comes in variety of formats including structured, unstructured and semi-structured, what makes it impossible…

Recent years, the database committee has attempted to develop automatic database management systems. Although some researches show that the applying AI to data management is a significant and promising direction, there still exists many…

Depth-adaptive neural networks can dynamically adjust depths according to the hardness of input words, and thus improve efficiency. The main challenge is how to measure such hardness and decide the required depths (i.e., layers) to conduct.…

Training large language models (LLMs) increasingly relies on geographically distributed accelerators, causing prohibitive communication costs across regions and uneven utilization of heterogeneous hardware. We propose HALoS, a hierarchical…

Federated Learning is a well-researched approach for collaboratively training machine learning models across decentralized data while preserving privacy. However, integrating Homomorphic Encryption to ensure data confidentiality introduces…

Consider a sequential active learning problem where, at each round, an agent selects a batch of unlabeled data points, queries their labels and updates a binary classifier. While there exists a rich body of work on active learning in this…

Federated Learning (FL) provides a privacy-preserving framework for training machine learning models on mobile edge devices. Traditional FL algorithms, e.g., FedAvg, impose a heavy communication workload on these devices. To mitigate this…

Parallel computing is the fundamental base for MapReduce framework in Hadoop. Each data chunk is replicated over 3 servers for increasing availability of data and decreasing probability of data loss. Hence, the 3 servers that have Map task…

Human feedback can greatly accelerate robot learning, but in real-world settings, such feedback is costly and limited. Existing human-in-the-loop reinforcement learning (HiL-RL) methods often assume abundant feedback, limiting their…

Training LLMs as interactive agents for multi-turn decision-making remains challenging, particularly in long-horizon tasks with sparse and delayed rewards, where agents must execute extended sequences of actions before receiving meaningful…

Storing and processing massive small files is one of the major challenges for the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS). In order to provide fast data access, the NameNode (NN) in HDFS maintains the metadata of all files in its main-memory.…
