In this paper, we introduce the first machine learning framework for predicting optimal processing times in Single-Level Tree Network (SLTN) architectures for the Divisible Load Theory (DLT) paradigm. Using a feedforward neural network(FNN)…

Persistent Memory (PM) is a new storage technology thatbrings high performance, byte addressability, and persistency for a lesser cost than DRAM. Due to cache volatility and store reordering, developers must use explicit instructions (e.g.:…

The dominant data interchange formats encode integers using a variable number of bytes or represent floating-point numbers as variable-length UTF-8 strings. The decoder must inspect each byte for a continuation bit or parse each character…

The overhead of the kernel storage path accounts for half of the access latency for new NVMe storage devices. We explore using BPF to reduce this overhead, by injecting user-defined functions deep in the kernel's I/O processing stack. When…

High load latency that results from deep cache hierarchies and relatively slow main memory is an important limiter of single-thread performance. Data prefetch helps reduce this latency by fetching data up the hierarchy before it is…

In large-scale distributed file systems, efficient meta- data operations are critical since most file operations have to interact with metadata servers first. In existing distributed hash table (DHT) based metadata management systems, the…

PageRank is a well-known algorithm whose robustness helps set a standard benchmark when processing graphs and analytical problems. The PageRank algorithm serves as a standard for many graph analytics and a foundation for extracting graph…

The size of a data structure (i.e., the number of elements in it) is a widely used property of a data set. However, for concurrent programs, obtaining a correct size efficiently is non-trivial. In fact, the literature does not offer a…

This thesis concerns sequential-access data compression, i.e., by algorithms that read the input one or more times from beginning to end. In one chapter we consider adaptive prefix coding, for which we must read the input character by…

Linear recurrent neural networks enable powerful long-range sequence modeling with constant memory usage and time-per-token during inference. These architectures hold promise for streaming applications at the edge, but deployment in…

Profiling techniques are used extensively at different parts of the computing stack to achieve many goals. One major goal is to make a piece of software execute more efficiently on a specific hardware platform, where efficiency spans…

Efficient execution of deep learning workloads on dataflow architectures is crucial for overcoming memory bottlenecks and maximizing performance. While streaming intermediate results between computation kernels can significantly improve…

Nowadays, Linux file systems have to manage millions of tiny files for different applications, and face with higher metadata operations. So how to provide such high metadata performance with such enormous number of files and large scale…

Compiler phase ordering has a strong effect on program performance. Finding an effective sequence of passes is still a difficult task because the search space is large and execution time, code size and energy consumption often conflict.…

Flash memories intended for SSD and mobile applications need to provide high random I/O performance. This requires using efficient schemes for reading small chunks of data (e.g. 0.5KB - 4KB) from random addresses. Furthermore, in order to…

Data loading can dominate deep neural network training time on large-scale systems. We present a comprehensive study on accelerating data loading performance in large-scale distributed training. We first identify performance and scalability…

It has been proved that to implement a linearizable shared memory in synchronous message-passing systems it is necessary to wait for a time proportional to the uncertainty in the latency of the network for both read and write operations,…

Coded caching is used to reduce network congestion during peak hours. A single server is connected to a set of users through a bottleneck link, which generally is assumed to be error-free. During non-peak hours, all the users have full…

Data serialization is a common and crucial component in high performance computing. In this paper, I present a C++11 based serialization library for performance critical systems. It provides an interface similar to Boost but up to 150%…

Packet processing on Linux can be slow due to its complex network stack. To solve this problem, there are two main solutions: eXpress Data Path (XDP) and Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK). XDP and the AF XDP socket offer full…
