In recent years a large number of problems have been considered in external memory models of computation, where the complexity measure is the number of blocks of data that are moved between slow external memory and fast internal memory…

Data analytics applications transform raw input data into analytics-specific data structures before performing analytics. Unfortunately, such data ingestion step is often more expensive than analytics. In addition, various types of NVRAM…

Machine learning (ML) is probably the first and foremost used technique to deal with the size and complexity of the new generation of data. In this paper, we analyze one of the means to increase the performances of ML algorithms which is…

Specialized hardware accelerators are becoming important for more and more applications. Thanks to specialization, they can achieve high performance and energy efficiency but their design is complex and time consuming. This problem is…

Code localization is a fundamental challenge in repository-level software engineering tasks such as bug fixing. While existing methods equip language agents with comprehensive tools/interfaces to fetch information from the repository, they…

This paper proposes a novel solution: the elimination of paged virtual memory and partial outsourcing of memory page allocation and manipulation from the operating system kernel into the individual process' user space - a user mode page…

Software-defined networks (SDNs) are a huge evolution in simplifying implementation and network operation which have reduced costs and made the network programmable. Although SDNs are a suitable option for solving some of the previous…

Resource allocation problems in many computer systems can be formulated as mathematical optimization problems. However, finding exact solutions to these problems using off-the-shelf solvers is often intractable for large problem sizes with…

In many embedded systems, such as imaging sys- tems, the system has a single designated purpose, and same threads are executed repeatedly. Profiling thread behavior, allows the system to allocate each thread its resources in a way that…

Modern shared memory multiprocessors permit reordering of memory operations for performance reasons. These reorderings are often a source of subtle bugs in programs written for such architectures. Traditional approaches to verify weak…

Advance reservation is important to guarantee the quality of services of jobs by allowing exclusive access to resources over a defined time interval on resources. It is a challenge for the scheduler to organize available resources…

Cumulative memory -- the sum of space used per step over the duration of a computation -- is a fine-grained measure of time-space complexity that was introduced to analyze cryptographic applications like password hashing. It is a more…

Over the past few years, self-attention is shining in the field of deep learning, especially in the domain of natural language processing(NLP). Its impressive effectiveness, along with ubiquitous implementations, have aroused our interest…

Modern software executes a large amount of code. Previous techniques of code layout optimization were developed one or two decades ago and have become inadequate to cope with the scale and complexity of new types of applications such as…

In modern distributed systems, efficient resource allocation is a vital aspect to maintain scalability, reduce operational costs, and ensure fast execution even across heterogeneous workloads. Predictive models for resource usage are…

Neural networks, particularly Transformer-based architectures, have achieved significant performance improvements on several retrieval benchmarks. When the items being retrieved are documents, the time and memory cost of employing…

Current compilers implement security features and optimizations that require nontrivial semantic reasoning about pointers and memory allocation: the program after the insertion of the security feature, or after applying the optimization,…

Common implementations of core memory allocation components, like the Linux buddy system, handle concurrent allocation/release requests by synchronizing threads via spin-locks. This approach is clearly not prone to scale with large thread…

The rapid scaling of large language models (LLMs) has significantly increased GPU memory pressure, which is further aggravated by training optimization techniques such as virtual pipeline and recomputation that disrupt tensor lifespans and…

Memory latency, bandwidth, capacity, and energy increasingly limit performance. In this paper, we reconsider proposed system architectures that consist of huge (many-terabyte to petabyte scale) memories shared among large numbers of CPUs.…
