Silent Errors within hardware devices occur when an internal defect manifests in a part of the circuit which does not have check logic to detect the incorrect circuit operation. The results of such a defect can range from flipping a single…
Cyber-physical systems (CPS) integrate sensing, computing, communication and actuation capabilities to monitor and control operations in the physical environment. A key requirement of such systems is the need to provide predictable…
Nowadays, improving the energy efficiency of high-performance computing (HPC) systems is one of the main drivers in scientific and technological research. As large-scale HPC systems require some fault-tolerant method, the opportunities to…
This paper examines the value of storage in securing reliability of a system with uncertain supply and demand, and supply friction. The storage is frictionless as a supply source, but once used, it cannot be filled up instantaneously. The…
We present and evaluate Spectrum-Based Log Diagnosis (SBLD), a method to help developers quickly diagnose problems found in complex integration and deployment runs. Inspired by Spectrum-Based Fault Localization, SBLD leverages the…
Datacenter power demand has been continuously growing and is the key driver of its cost. An accurate mapping of compute resources (CPU, RAM, etc.) and hardware types (servers, accelerators, etc.) to power consumption has emerged as a…
The advent of renewable energy has huge implications for the design and control of power grids. Due to increasing supply-side uncertainty, traditional reliability constraints such as strict bounds on current, voltage and temperature in a…
This paper demonstrates that SSDs, which perform device-level versioning, can be exposed to data tampering attacks when the retention time of data is less than the malware's dwell time. To deal with that threat, we propose SGX-SSD, a…
Recent advancements in machine learning and reinforcement learning have brought increased attention to their applicability in a range of decision-making tasks in the operations of power systems, such as short-term emergency control,…
A wide variety of large-scale data has been produced in bioinformatics. In response, the need for efficient handling of biomedical big data has been partly met by parallel computing. However, the time demand of many bioinformatics programs…
The quality of industrial components is critical to the production of special equipment such as robots. Defect inspection of these components is an efficient way to ensure quality. In this paper, we propose a hybrid network, SSD-Faster Net,…
Timing and power consumption play an important role in the design of embedded systems. Furthermore, both properties are directly related to the safety requirements of many embedded systems. With regard to availability requirements, power…

In electric power systems delivering alternating current, it is essential to maintain its synchrony of the phase with the rated frequency. The synchronization stability that quantifies how well the power-grid system recovers its synchrony…
Achieving high performance in virtualized data centers requires both deploying high throughput storage clusters, i.e. based on Solid State Disks (SSDs), as well as optimally consolidating the workloads across storage nodes. Nowadays, the…
For many types of integrated circuits, accepting larger failure rates in computations can be used to improve energy efficiency. We study the performance of faulty implementations of certain deep neural networks based on pessimistic and…
In a power distribution network with energy storage systems (ESS) and advanced controls, traditional monitoring and protection schemes are not well suited for detecting anomalies such as malfunction of controllable devices. In this work, we…
