Recommender Systems (RSs) in real-world applications often deal with billions of user interactions daily. To capture the most recent trends effectively, it is common to update the model incrementally using only the newly arrived data.…

In large-scale data processing scenarios, data often arrive in sequential streams generated by complex systems that exhibit drifting distributions and time-varying system parameters. This nonstationarity challenges theoretical analysis, as…

To balance the quality and inference cost of a Foundation Model (FM, such as large language models (LLMs)) powered software, people often opt to train a routing model that routes requests to FMs with different sizes and capabilities.…

It is commonly believed that datacenter networking software must sacrifice generality to attain high performance. The popularity of specialized distributed systems designed specifically for niche technologies such as RDMA, lossless…

Efficient scheduling is crucial for interactive Large Language Model (LLM) applications, where low request completion time directly impacts user engagement. Size-based scheduling algorithms like Shortest Remaining Process Time (SRPT) aim to…

Reinforcement Learning (RL) has achieved significant success in application domains such as robotics, games and health care. However, training RL agents is very time consuming. Current implementations exhibit poor performance due to…

Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) is a transformative technology with great potential in many applications in wireless communications and realizing the Internet of Everything at sixth generation (6G). In this study, we propose a…

Data replication is crucial in modern distributed systems as a means to provide high availability. Many techniques have been proposed to utilize replicas to improve a system's performance, often requiring expensive coordination or…

Serverless platforms essentially face a tradeoff between container startup time and provisioned concurrency (i.e., cached instances), which is further exaggerated by the frequent need for remote container initialization. This paper presents…

Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) is an efficient way to improve the performance of traditional client-server systems. Currently, there are two main design paradigms for RDMA-accelerated systems. The first allows the clients to directly…

This paper proposes Kudu, a distributed execution engine with a well-defined abstraction that can be integrated with existing single-machine graph pattern mining (GPM) systems to provide efficiency and scalability at the same time. The key…

We focus on the problem of checkpointing (or taking a snapshot) in fully replicated eventually consistent distributed databases. In particular, we consider the problem of taking Distributed Transaction-Consistent Snapshots (DTCS). A typical…

Repeat finding in strings has important applications in subfields such as computational biology. The challenge of finding the longest repeats covering particular string positions was recently proposed and solved by \.{I}leri et al., using a…

In the era of big data and cloud computing, large amounts of data are generated from user applications and need to be processed in the datacenter. Data-parallel computing frameworks, such as Apache Spark, are widely used to perform such…

Querying graph data with low latency is an important requirement in application domains such as social networks and knowledge graphs. Graph queries perform multiple hops between vertices. When data is partitioned and stored across multiple…

In the last few years, research and development on Deep Learning models and techniques for ultra-low-power devices in a word, TinyML has mainly focused on a train-then-deploy assumption, with static models that cannot be adapted to newly…

An existing approach for dealing with massive data sets is to stream over the input in few passes and perform computations with sublinear resources. This method does not work for truly massive data where even making a single pass over the…

Realistic simulations in engineering or in the materials sciences can consume enormous computing resources and thus require the use of massively parallel supercomputers. The probability of a failure increases both with the runtime and with…

Reference-based super-resolution (RefSR) has made significant progress in producing realistic textures using an external reference (Ref) image. However, existing RefSR methods obtain high-quality correspondence matchings consuming quadratic…

In this paper we introduce Creek, a low-latency, eventually consistent replication scheme that also enables execution of strongly consistent operations (akin to ACID transactions). Operations can have arbitrary complex (but deterministic)…
