Running data analytics queries on serverless (FaaS) workers has been shown to be cost- and performance-efficient for a variety of real-world scenarios, including intermittent query arrival patterns, sudden load spikes and management…

Existing serverless data analytics systems rely on external storage services like S3 for data shuffling and communication between cloud functions. While this approach provides the elasticity benefits of serverless computing, it incurs…

The event-driven and elastic nature of serverless runtimes makes them a very efficient and cost-effective alternative for scaling up computations. So far, they have mostly been used for stateless, data parallel and ephemeral computations.…

Serverless computing is an emerging cloud paradigm that offers an elastic and scalable allocation of computing resources with pay-as-you-go billing. In the Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) programming model, applications comprise short-lived…

Collaborative Data Sharing raises a fundamental issue in distributed systems. Several strategies have been proposed for making shared data consistent between peers in such a way that the shared part of their local data become equal. Most of…

We employ supervisory controllers to safely coordinate high-level discrete(-event) behavior of distributed components of complex systems. Supervisory controllers observe discrete-event system behavior, make a decision on allowed activities,…

Serverless computing is a promising approach for edge computing since its inherent features, e.g., lightweight virtualization, rapid scalability, and economic efficiency. However, previous studies have not studied well the issues of…

Serverless computing, with its operational simplicity and on-demand scalability, has become a preferred paradigm for deploying workflow applications. However, resource allocation for workflows, particularly those with branching structures,…

Fog computing can support IoT services with fast response time and low bandwidth usage by moving computation from the cloud to edge devices. However, existing fog computing frameworks have limited flexibility to support dynamic service…

Serverless computing has gained a strong traction in the cloud computing community in recent years. Among the many benefits of this novel computing model, the rapid auto-scaling capability of user applications takes prominence. However, the…

Serverless computing offers the potential to program the cloud in an autoscaling, pay-as-you go manner. In this paper we address critical gaps in first-generation serverless computing, which place its autoscaling potential at odds with…

Federated data processing (FDP) offers a promising approach for enabling collaborative analysis of sensitive data without centralizing raw datasets. However, real-world adoption remains limited due to the complexity of managing…

To process a large volume of data, modern data management systems use a collection of machines connected through a network. This paper looks into the feasibility of scaling up such a shared-nothing system while processing a compute- and…

Taskflow aims to streamline the building of parallel and heterogeneous applications using a lightweight task graph-based approach. Taskflow introduces an expressive task graph programming model to assist developers in the implementation of…

While many production-ready and robust algorithms are available for the task of recommendation systems, many of these systems do not take the order of user's consumption into account. The order of consumption can be very useful and matters…

Serverless functions provide elastic scaling and a fine-grained billing model, making Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) an attractive programming model. However, for distributed jobs that benefit from large-scale and dynamic parallelism, the…

Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) is an event-driven serverless cloud computing model in which small, stateless functions are invoked in response to events, such as HTTP requests, new database entries, or messages. Current FaaS platform assume…

Serverless clouds promise efficient scaling, reduced toil and monetary costs. Yet, serverless-ing a complex, legacy application might require major refactoring and thus is risky. As a case study, we use Airflow, an industry-standard…

Today's datacenters face important challenges for providing low-latency high-quality interactive services to meet user's expectation. For improving the application throughput, recent research works have embedded application deadline…

Function calling is a fundamental capability of today's large language models, but sequential function calling posed efficiency problems. Recent studies have proposed to request function calls with parallelism support in order to alleviate…
