Reuse has been proposed as a microarchitecture-level mechanism to reduce the amount of executed instructions, collapsing dependencies and freeing resources for other instructions. Previous works have used reuse domains such as memory…

Determining whether multiple instructions can access the same memory location is a critical task in binary analysis. It is challenging as statically computing precise alias information is undecidable in theory. The problem aggravates at the…

In modern cloud-native applications, microservices are commonly deployed in containerized environments to ensure scalability and flexibility. However, inter-process communication (IPC) between co-located microservices often suffers from…

Recent security vulnerabilities that target speculative execution (e.g., Spectre) present a significant challenge for processor design. The highly publicized vulnerability uses speculative execution to learn victim secrets by changing cache…

Modern LLM applications such as deep-research assistants, coding agents, and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems, repeatedly process long prompt histories containing shared document or code chunks, creating significant pressure on…

Personalized recommendation systems leverage deep learning models and account for the majority of data center AI cycles. Their performance is dominated by memory-bound sparse embedding operations with unique irregular memory access patterns…

High-performance computing developers are faced with the challenge of optimizing the performance of OpenCL workloads on diverse architectures. The Architecture-Independent Workload Characterization (AIWC) tool is a plugin for the Oclgrind…

Could information about future incoming packets be used to build more efficient CPU-based packet processors? Can such information be obtained accurately? This paper studies novel packet processing architectures that receive external hints…

The cloud model's dependence on massive parallelism and resource sharing exacerbates the security challenge of timing side-channels. Timing Information Flow Control (TIFC) is a novel adaptation of IFC techniques that may offer a way to…

The memory subsystem has always been a bottleneck in performance as well as significant power contributor in memory intensive applications. Many researchers have presented multi-layered memory hierarchies as a means to design energy and…

In-memory computing (IMC) has been shown to be a promising approach for solving binary optimization problems while significantly reducing energy and latency. Building on the advantages of parallel computation, we propose an IMC-compatible…

Sequential computation is well understood but does not scale well with current technology. Within the next decade, systems will contain large numbers of processors with potentially thousands of processors per chip. Despite this, many…

This work explores the feasibility of specialized hardware implementing the Cortical Learning Algorithm (CLA) in order to fully exploit its inherent advantages. This algorithm, which is inspired in the current understanding of the mammalian…

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,…

Continual learning is crucial for applying machine learning in challenging, dynamic, and often resource-constrained environments. However, catastrophic forgetting - overwriting previously learned knowledge when new information is acquired -…

This paper describes a new benchmark tool, Spatter, for assessing memory system architectures in the context of a specific category of indexed accesses known as gather and scatter. These types of operations are increasingly used to express…

Modern computing systems are limited in performance by the memory bandwidth available to processors, a problem known as the memory wall. Processing-in-Memory (PIM) promises to substantially improve this problem by moving processing closer…

Discrete optimization is a central problem in artificial intelligence. The optimization of the aggregated cost of a network of cost functions arises in a variety of problems including (W)CSP, DCOP, as well as optimization in stochastic…
