Dataflow architectures are growing in popularity due to their potential to mitigate the challenges posed by the memory wall inherent to the Von Neumann architecture. At the same time, high-level synthesis (HLS) has demonstrated its efficacy…

Cloud-based infrastructures have grown in popularity over the last decade leveraging virtualisation, server, storage, compute power and network components to develop flexible applications. The requirements for instantaneous deployment and…

Modern enterprises rely on data management systems to collect, store, and analyze vast amounts of data related with their operations. Nowadays, clusters and hardware accelerators (e.g., GPUs, TPUs) have become a necessity to scale with the…

Multi-Byzantine Fault Tolerant (Multi-BFT) consensus, which runs multiple BFT instances in parallel, has recently emerged as a promising approach to overcome the leader bottleneck in classical BFT protocols. However, existing designs rely…

We consider how underused computing resources within an enterprise may be harnessed to improve utilization and create an elastic computing infrastructure. Most current cloud provision involves a data center model, in which clusters of…

Emerging AI-enabled applications such as augmented/virtual reality (AR/VR) leverage multiple deep neural network (DNN) models for sub-tasks such as object detection, hand tracking, and so on. Because of the diversity of the sub-tasks, the…

High performance computing (HPC) and cloud have traditionally been separate, and presented in an adversarial light. The conflict arises from disparate beginnings that led to two drastically different cultures, incentive structures, and…

In a new effort to make our research transparent and reproducible by others, we developed a workflow to run and share computational studies on the public cloud Microsoft Azure. It uses Docker containers to create an image of the application…

Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) is a promising edge computing execution model but requires secure sandboxing mechanisms to isolate workloads from multiple tenants on constrained infrastructure. Although Docker containers are lightweight and…

Despite the multitude of excellent software components and tools available in the robotics and broader software engineering communities, successful integration of software for robotic systems remains a time-consuming and challenging task…

The rapid expansion of IoT devices and their real-time applications have driven a growing need for edge computing. To meet this need, efficient and secure solutions are required for running such applications on resource-constrained devices…

The increasing availability of cloud computing services for science has changed the way scientific code can be developed, deployed, and run. Many modern scientific workflows are capable of running on cloud computing resources. Consequently,…

Web3 applications require execution platforms that maintain confidentiality and integrity without relying on centralized trust authorities. While Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) offer promising capabilities for confidential computing,…

Containers are increasingly used as means to distribute and run Linux services and applications. In this paper we describe the architectural design and implementation of udocker, a tool which enables the user to execute Linux containers in…

Virtualization technology and cloud computing have brought a paradigm shift in the way we utilize, deploy and manage computer resources. They allow fast deployment of multiple operating system as containers on physical ma- chines which can…

Container-based technologies empower cloud tenants to develop highly portable software and deploy services in the cloud at a rapid pace. Cloud privacy, meanwhile, is important as a large number of container deployments operate on…

Virtualization started to gain traction in the domain of information technology in the early 2000s when managing resource distribution was becoming an uphill task for developers. As a result, tools like VMWare, Hyper V (hypervisor) started…

Virtualization is a very popular solution to many problems in datacenter management. It offers increased utilization of existing system resources through effective consolidation, negating the need for more servers and additional rack space.…

Cloud containers represent a new, light-weight alternative to virtual machines in cloud computing. A user job may be described by a container graph that specifies the resource profile of each container and container dependence relations.…

Cloud Computing has emerged as a successful computing paradigm for efficiently utilizing managed compute infrastructure such as high speed rack-mounted servers, connected with high speed networking, and reliable storage. Usually such…
