Serverless computing is increasingly popular because of the promise of lower cost and the convenience it provides to users who do not need to focus on server management. This has resulted in the availability of a number of proprietary and…
As communication networks are growing at a fast pace, the need for more scalable approaches to operate such networks is pressing. Decentralization and locality are key concepts to provide scalability. Existing models for which local…
Today's Cloud applications are dominated by composite applications comprising multiple computing and data components with strong communication correlations among them. Although Cloud providers are deploying large number of computing and…
Cloud resource management is often modeled by two-dimensional bin packing with a set of items that correspond to tasks having fixed CPU and memory requirements. However, applications running in clouds are much more flexible: modern…
Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are revolutionizing machine learning, but they present significant computational challenges. Recently, many FPGA-based accelerators have been proposed to improve the performance and efficiency of CNNs.…
Network latency severely impacts the performance of applications running on supercomputers. Adaptive routing algorithms route packets over different available paths to reduce latency and improve network utilization. However, if a switch…
By default, the Linux network stack is not configured for highspeed large file transfer. The reason behind this is to save memory resources. It is possible to tune the Linux network stack by increasing the network buffers size for…
Efficient execution of parameter sensitivity analysis (SA) is critical to allow for its routinely use. The pathology image processing application investigated in this work processes high-resolution whole-slide cancer tissue images from…
Modern web pages have complex structures comprised of up to hundreds of different resources, such as scripts and images. Server push is an HTTP/2 feature enabling servers to preemptively send resources to clients before they realize they…
In this letter, we propose a new routing strategy to improve the transportation efficiency on complex networks. Instead of using the routing strategy for shortest path, we give a generalized routing algorithm to find the so-called {\it…
Many state-of-the-art Segment Routing (SR) Traffic Engineering (TE) algorithms rely on Linear Program (LP)-based optimization. However, the poor scalability of the latter and the resulting high computation times impose severe restrictions…
Serverless computing simplifies deployment and scaling, yet cold-start latency remains a major performance bottleneck. Unlike prior work that treats mitigation as a black-box optimization, we study cold starts as a developer-visible design…
We consider load balancing in large-scale heterogeneous server systems in the presence of data locality that imposes constraints on which tasks can be assigned to which servers. The constraints are naturally captured by a bipartite graph…
Profiling techniques are used extensively at different parts of the computing stack to achieve many goals. One major goal is to make a piece of software execute more efficiently on a specific hardware platform, where efficiency spans…
Developing an efficient server-based real-time scheduling solution that supports dynamic task-level parallelism is now relevant to even the desktop and embedded domains and no longer only to the high performance computing market niche. This…
Microservice Architectures (MA) have the potential to increase the agility of software development. In an era where businesses require software applications to evolve to support software emerging requirements, particularly for Internet of…
Reducing network latency in mobile applications is an effective way of improving the mobile user experience and has tangible economic benefits. This paper presents PALOMA, a novel client-centric technique for reducing the network latency by…
Modern operating system schedulers employ a single, static policy, which struggles to deliver optimal performance across the diverse and dynamic workloads of contemporary systems. This "one-policy-fits-all" approach leads to significant…
Could information about future incoming packets be used to build more efficient CPU-based packet processors? Can such information be obtained accurately? This paper studies novel packet processing architectures that receive external hints…
Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) enables rich services in close proximity to the end users to provide high quality of experience (QoE) and contributes to energy conservation compared with local computing, but results in increased communication…
