This paper demonstrates that adopting out-of-place writes is essential for database systems to fully leverage SSD performance and extend SSD lifespan. We propose a set of out-of-place optimizations that collectively reduce write…

Various constraints of Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) are leading to consider new memory technologies as candidates for building on-chip shared last-level caches (SLLCs). Spin-Transfer Torque RAM (STT-RAM) is currently postulated as the…

Bulk bitwise operations, i.e., bitwise operations on large bit vectors, are prevalent in a wide range of important application domains, including databases, graph processing, genome analysis, cryptography, and hyper-dimensional computing.…

The practical NAND flash memory suffers from various non-stationary noises that are difficult to be predicted. Furthermore, the data retention noise induced channel offset is unknown during the readback process. This severely affects the…

Solid-state drives (SSDs) have been widely deployed in desktops and data centers. However, SSDs suffer from bit errors, and the bit error rate is time dependent since it increases as an SSD wears down. Traditional storage systems mainly use…

In recent years, the performance of lightweight Single-Image Super-Resolution (SISR) has been improved significantly with the application of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Large Kernel Attention (LKA). However, existing…

In this work, we explore the Transcriptomics Atlas pipeline adapted for cost-efficient and high-throughput computing in the cloud. We propose a scalable, cloud-native architecture designed for running a resource-intensive aligner -- STAR --…

As the capacity of Solid-State Drives (SSDs) is constantly being optimised and boosted with gradually reduced cost, the SSD cluster is now widely deployed as part of the hybrid storage system in various scenarios such as cloud computing and…

Last level caches (LLCs) occupy a large chip-area and there size is expected to grow further to offset the limitations of memory bandwidth and speed. Due to high leakage consumption of SRAM device, caches designed with SRAM consume large…

Diffusion Language Models (DLMs) enable parallel decoding via iterative denoising, where remasking strategies play a critical role in balancing inference speed and output quality. Existing methods predominantly rely on static confidence…

Existing solid state drive (SSD) simulators unfortunately lack hardware and/or software architecture models. Consequently, they are far from capturing the critical features of contemporary SSD devices. More importantly, while the…

Online 3D reconstruction from streaming inputs requires both long-term temporal consistency and efficient memory usage. Although causal variants of VGGT address this challenge through a key-value (KV) cache mechanism, the cache grows…

Response time requirements for big data processing systems are shrinking. To meet this strict response time requirement, many big data systems store all or most of their data in main memory to reduce the access latency. Main memory…

Aligning large language models (LLMs) with human values is crucial for safe deployment. Inference-time techniques offer granular control over generation; however, they rely on model uncertainty, meaning an internal estimate of how likely…

Modern LiDAR-SLAM (L-SLAM) systems have shown excellent results in large-scale, real-world scenarios. However, they commonly have a high latency due to the expensive data association and nonlinear optimization. This paper demonstrates that…

In this paper, we conduct systematic measurement studies to show that the high memory bandwidth consumption of modern distributed applications can lead to a significant drop of network throughput and a large increase of tail latency in…

This paper studies the impact of DRAM writes on DDR5-based system. To efficiently perform DRAM writes, modern systems buffer write requests and try to complete multiple write operations whenever the DRAM mode is switched from read to write.…

Modern HTTPS mechanisms such as Encrypted Client Hello (ECH) and encrypted DNS improve privacy but remain vulnerable to website fingerprinting (WF) attacks, where adversaries infer visited sites from encrypted traffic patterns. Existing WF…

Dynamic memory management requires special attention in programming. It should be fast and secure at the same time. This paper proposes a new randomized dynamic memory management algorithm designed to meet these requirements. Randomization…

Recently, 3D SSDs are widely adopted in PCs, data centers, and cloud storage systems. To increase capacity, high bit-density cells, such as Triple-Level Cell (TLC), are utilized within 3D SSDs. However, due to the inferior performance of…
