Stochastic algorithms are efficient approaches to solving machine learning and optimization problems. In this paper, we propose a general framework called Splash for parallelizing stochastic algorithms on multi-node distributed systems.…

In recent years, autonomous vehicles have attracted attention as one of the solutions to various social problems. However, autonomous driving software requires real-time performance as it considers a variety of functions and complex…

This paper proposes a control algorithm for stable implementation of asynchronous parallel quadratic programming (PQP) through dual decomposition technique. In general, distributed and parallel optimization requires synchronization of data…

Programs with constraints are hard to debug. In this paper, we describe a general architecture to help develop new debugging tools for constraint programming. The possible tools are fed by a single general-purpose tracer. A tracer-driver is…

This paper studies the application of the simulated annealing metaheuristic on the identical parallel machine scheduling problem, a variant of the broader optimal job scheduling problem. In the identical parallel machine scheduling problem,…

The focus of my PhD thesis is on exploring parallel approaches to efficiently solve problems modeled by constraints and presenting a new proposal. Current solvers are very advanced; they are carefully designed to effectively manage the…

In the modern world, we are permanently using, leveraging, interacting with, and relying upon systems of ever higher sophistication, ranging from our cars, recommender systems in e-commerce, and networks when we go online, to integrated…

Parametric linear programming is a central operation for polyhedral computations, as well as in certain control applications.Here we propose a task-based scheme for parallelizing it, with quasi-linear speedup over large problems.This type…

Spatial decomposition is a popular basis for parallelising code. Cast in the frame of task parallelism, calculations on a spatial domain can be treated as a task. If neighbouring domains interact and share results, access to the specific…

Debuggers are a popular reverse engineering and tampering tool. Self-debugging is an effective technique for applications to defend themselves against hostile debuggers. In penetration tests on state-of-the-art self-debugging, we observed…

Control parallelism and data parallelism is mostly reasoned and optimized as separate functions. Because of this, workloads that are irregular, fine-grain and dynamic such as dynamic graph processing become very hard to scale. An…

We present a novel class of methods to compute functions of matrices or their action on vectors that are suitable for parallel programming. Solving appropriate simple linear systems of equations in parallel (or computing the inverse of…

Automotive engineering makes extensive use of numerical simulation throughout the design process. The development of numerical models, their validation against experimental tests, and their updating during vehicle and engine projects…

This paper studies parallelization schemes for stochastic Vector Quantization algorithms in order to obtain time speed-ups using distributed resources. We show that the most intuitive parallelization scheme does not lead to better…

Modern program runtime is dominated by segments of repeating code called kernels. Kernels are accelerated by increasing memory locality, increasing data-parallelism, and exploiting producer-consumer parallelism among kernels - which…

A simple method for improving cache efficiency of serial and parallel explicit finite procedure with application to casting solidification simulation over three-dimensional complex geometries is presented. The method is based on division of…

Simulations of systems with quenched disorder are extremely demanding, suffering from the combined effect of slow relaxation and the need of performing the disorder average. As a consequence, new algorithms, improved implementations, and…

This paper investigates co-scheduling algorithms for processing a set of parallel applications. Instead of executing each application one by one, using a maximum degree of parallelism for each of them, we aim at scheduling several…

Asynchronous programming has appeared as a programming style that overcomes undesired properties of concurrent programming. Typically in asynchronous models of programming, methods are posted into a post list for latter execution. The order…

Recent years have witnessed the surge of asynchronous parallel (async-parallel) iterative algorithms due to problems involving very large-scale data and a large number of decision variables. Because of asynchrony, the iterates are computed…
