Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) have the potential to accelerate specific HPC codes. However even with the advent of High Level Synthesis (HLS), which enables FPGA programmers to write code in C or C++, programming such devices still…

Modern data centers suffer from a growing carbon footprint due to insufficient support for environmental sustainability. While hardware accelerators and renewable energy have been utilized to enhance sustainability, addressing Quality of…

Many-core accelerators are essential for high-performance deep learning, but their performance is undermined by widespread fail-slow failures. Detecting such failures on-chip is challenging, as prior methods from distributed systems are…

Hardware failures are a growing challenge for machine learning accelerators, many of which are based on systolic arrays. When a permanent hardware failure occurs in a systolic array, existing solutions include localizing and isolating the…

An MPC controller uses a model of the dynamical system to plan an optimal control strategy for a finite horizon, which makes its performance intrinsically tied to the quality of the model. When faults occur, the compromised model will…

Using FPGAs to accelerate ConvNets has attracted significant attention in recent years. However, FPGA accelerator design has not leveraged the latest progress of ConvNets. As a result, the key application characteristics such as…

Direct-attached accelerators, where application accelerators are directly connected to the datacenter network via a hardware network stack, offer substantial benefits in terms of reduced latency, CPU overhead, and energy use. However, a key…

Fault-tolerant complexes describe surface-code fault-tolerant protocols from a single geometric object. We first introduce fusion complexes that define a general family of fusion-based quantum computing (FBQC) fault-tolerant quantum…

It is commonly agreed that highly parallel software on Exascale computers will suffer from many more runtime failures due to the decreasing trend in the mean time to failures (MTTF). Therefore, it is not surprising that a lot of research is…

Modern DRAM modules are often equipped with hardware error correction capabilities, especially for DRAM deployed in large-scale data centers, as process technology scaling has increased the susceptibility of these devices to errors. To…

Tensors play a vital role in machine learning (ML) and often exhibit properties best explored while maintaining high-order. Efficiently performing ML computations requires taking advantage of sparsity, but generalized hardware support is…

DIFT (Dynamic Information Flow Tracking) has been a hot topic for more than a decade. Unfortunately, existing hardware DIFT approaches have not been widely used neither by research community nor by hardware vendors. It is due to two major…

Responding to the "datacenter tax" and "killer microseconds" problems for datacenter applications, diverse solutions including Smart NIC-based ones have been proposed. Nonetheless, they often suffer from high overhead of communications over…

Heterogeneous multi-core architectures combine on a single chip a few large, general-purpose host cores, optimized for single-thread performance, with (many) clusters of small, specialized, energy-efficient accelerator cores for…

On-device automatic speech recognition systems face several challenges compared to server-based systems. They have to meet stricter constraints in terms of speed, disk size and memory while maintaining the same accuracy. Often they have to…
