Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) are hardware-enforced memory isolation units, emerging as a pivotal security solution for security-critical applications. TEEs, like Intel SGX and ARM TrustZone, allow the isolation of confidential code…

Hardware enclaves such as Intel SGX are a promising technology for improving the security of databases outsourced to the cloud. These enclaves provide an execution environment isolated from the hypervisor/OS, and encrypt data in RAM.…

Industries are recently considering the adoption of cloud computing for hosting safety critical applications. However, the use of multicore processors usually adopted in the cloud introduces temporal anomalies due to contention for shared…

The growth rate of the GPU memory capacity has not been able to keep up with that of the size of large language models (LLMs), hindering the model training process. In particular, activations -- the intermediate tensors produced during…

Homomorphic Encryption (HE) is an emerging encryption scheme that allows computations to be performed directly on encrypted messages. This property provides promising applications such as privacy-preserving deep learning and cloud…

With the proliferation of Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) such as Intel SGX, a number of cloud providers will soon introduce TEE capabilities within their offering (e.g., Microsoft Azure). Although the integration of SGX within the…

Sparse matrix multiplication operators (i.e., SpMM and SDDMM) are widely used in deep learning and scientific computing. Modern accelerators are commonly equipped with Tensor Core Units (TCUs) and CUDA cores to accelerate sparse operators.…

Recently, research communities highlight the necessity of formulating a scalability continuum for large-scale graph processing, which gains the scale-out benefits from distributed graph systems, and the scale-up benefits from…

Parallel programming models can encourage performance portability by moving the responsibility for work assignment and data distribution from the programmer to a runtime system. However, analyzing the resulting implicit memory allocations,…

Gain Cell memory (GCRAM) offers higher density and lower power than SRAM, making it a promising candidate for on-chip memory in domain-specific accelerators. To support workloads with varying traffic and lifetime metrics, GCRAM also offers…

In this work we present the Secure Machine, SeM for short, a CPU architecture extension for secure computing. SeM uses a small amount of in-chip additional hardware that monitors key communication channels inside the CPU chip, and only acts…

As core counts and heterogeneity rise in HPC, traditional hybrid programming models face challenges in managing distributed GPU memory and ensuring portability. This paper presents DiOMP, a distributed OpenMP framework that unifies OpenMP…

Efficient cloud computing relies on in-process isolation to optimize performance by running workloads within a single process. Without heavy-weight process isolation, memory safety errors pose a significant security threat by allowing an…

Continuous learning (CL) has emerged as one of the most popular deep learning paradigms deployed in modern cloud GPUs. Specifically, CL has the capability to continuously update the model parameters (through model retraining) and use the…

While many cloud storage systems allow users to protect their data by making use of encryption, only few support collaborative editing on that data. A major challenge for enabling such collaboration is the need to enforce cryptographic…

Domain specific accelerators present new challenges and opportunities for code generation onto novel instruction sets, communication fabrics, and memory architectures. In this paper we introduce an intermediate representation (IR) which…

The growing adoption of IoT devices in our daily life is engendering a data deluge, mostly private information that needs careful maintenance and secure storage system to ensure data integrity and protection. Also, the prodigious IoT…

A recent Graph Neural Network (GNN) approach for learning to branch has been shown to successfully reduce the running time of branch-and-bound algorithms for Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP). While the GNN relies on a GPU for…
