Serverless computing is increasingly popular because of its lower cost and easier deployment. Several cloud service providers (CSPs) offer serverless computing on their public clouds, but it may bring the vendor lock-in risk. To avoid this…

Serverless architectures, particularly the Function as a Service (FaaS) model, have become a cornerstone of modern cloud computing due to their ability to simplify resource management and enhance application deployment agility. However, a…

The advent of serverless computing has ushered in notable advancements in distributed machine learning, particularly within parameter server-based architectures. Yet, the integration of serverless features within peer-to-peer (P2P)…

Today's systems are overwhelmingly designed to move data to computation. This design choice goes directly against at least three key trends in systems that cause performance, scalability and energy bottlenecks: (1) data access from memory…

Cloud computing offers on-demand, scalable computing and storage, and has become an essential resource for the analyses of big biomedical data. The usual approach to cloud computing requires users to reserve and provision virtual servers.…

With the alarming rate of security advisories and privacy concerns on connected devices, there is an urgent need for strong isolation guarantees in resource-constrained devices that demand very lightweight solutions. However, the status quo…

In many machine learning applications, labeling datasets can be an arduous and time-consuming task. Although research has shown that semi-supervised learning techniques can achieve high accuracy with very few labels within the field of…

Serverless computing has attracted a broad range of applications due to its ease of use and resource elasticity. However, developing serverless applications often poses a dilemma -- relying on general-purpose serverless platforms can fall…

Today's cloud storage services must offer storage reliability and fast data retrieval for large amount of data without sacrificing storage cost. We present SEARS, a cloud-based storage system which integrates erasure coding and data…

Serverless computing with cloud functions is quickly gaining adoption, but constrains programmers with its limited support for state management. We introduce a shared file system for cloud functions. It offers familiar POSIX semantics while…

Thanks to the latest advances in containerization, the serverless edge computing model is becoming close to reality. Serverless at the edge is expected to enable low latency applications with fast autoscaling mechanisms, all running on…

Prompt-based models have demonstrated impressive prompt-following capability at image editing tasks. However, the models still struggle with following detailed editing prompts or performing local edits. Specifically, global image quality…

This work presents HotSwap, a novel provider-side cold-start optimization for serverless computing. This optimization reduces cold-start time when booting and loading dependencies at runtime inside a function container. Previous research…

The rise of LLMs has driven demand for private serverless deployments, characterized by moderate-sized models and infrequent requests. While existing serverless solutions follow exclusive GPU allocation, we take a step back to explore…

Stencil computation is one of the most used kernels in a wide variety of scientific applications, ranging from large-scale weather prediction to solving partial differential equations. Stencil computations are characterized by three unique…

In-storage computing with modern solid-state drives (SSDs) enables developers to offload programs from the host to the SSD. It has been proven to be an effective approach to alleviate the I/O bottleneck. To facilitate in-storage computing,…

Trusted execution environments (TEEs) protect the integrity and confidentiality of running code and its associated data. Nevertheless, TEEs' integrity protection does not extend to the state saved on disk. Furthermore, modern cloud-native…

Data processing systems are increasingly deployed in the cloud. While monolithic systems run fully on virtual servers, recent systems embrace cloud infrastructure and utilize the disaggregation of compute and storage to scale them…

Maintaining web-services is a mission-critical task where any down-time means loss of revenue and reputation (of being a reliable service provider). In the current competitive web services market, such a loss of reputation causes extensive…

This paper summarizes the ideas and key concepts in MISE (Memory Interference-induced Slowdown Estimation), which was published in HPCA 2013 [97], and examines the work's significance and future potential. Applications running concurrently…
