Silent Bugs Matter: A Study of Compiler-Introduced Security Bugs

Mathias Josef Payer

Compilers assure that any produced optimized code is semantically equivalent to the original code. However, even "correct" compilers may introduce security bugs as security properties go beyond translation correctness. Security bugs introduced by such corr ...

MOD2IR: High-Performance Code Generation for a Biophysically Detailed Neuronal Simulation DSL

Felix Schürmann, Pramod Shivaji Kumbhar, Omar Awile, Ioannis Magkanaris, Snehal Pramod Kumbhar

Advances in computational capabilities and large volumes of experimental data have established computer simulations of brain tissue models as an important pillar in modern neuroscience. Alongside, a variety of domain specific languages (DSLs) have been dev ...

Quantum mixed state compiling

Zoë Holmes

The task of learning a quantum circuit to prepare a given mixed state is a fundamental quantum subroutine. We present a variational quantum algorithm (VQA) to learn mixed states which is suitable for near-term hardware. Our algorithm represents a generaliz ...

DASS: Combining Dynamic & Static Scheduling in High-Level Synthesis

Paolo Ienne, Lana Josipovic

A central task in high-level synthesis is scheduling: the allocation of operations to clock cycles. The classic approach to scheduling is static, in which each operation is mapped to a clock cycle at compile-time, but recent years have seen the emergence o ...

Unleashing Parallelism in Elastic Circuits with Faster Token Delivery

Paolo Ienne, Andrea Guerrieri, Lana Josipovic, Ayatallah Ahmed Gamal Kamal Elakhras

High-level synthesis (HLS) is the process of automatically generating circuits out of high-level language descriptions. Previous research has shown that dynamically scheduled HLS through elastic circuit generation is successful at exploiting parallelism in ...

RetroWrite: Statically Instrumenting COTS Binaries for Fuzzing and Sanitization

Mathias Josef Payer

Analyzing the security of closed source binaries is currently impractical for end-users, or even developers who rely on third-party libraries. Such analysis relies on automatic vulnerability discovery techniques, most notably fuzzing with sanitizers enable ...

Semantics-preserving inlining for metaprogramming

Martin Odersky, Nicolas Alexander Stucki, Sébastien Jean Robert Doeraene, Angelos Bimpoudis

Inlining is used in many different ways in programming languages: some languages use it as a compiler-directive solely for optimization, some use it as a metaprogramming feature, and others lay their design in-between. This paper presents inlining through ...

An Optimizing Multi-platform Source-to-source Compiler Framework for the NEURON MODeling Language

Felix Schürmann, James Gonzalo King, Pramod Shivaji Kumbhar, Omar Awile, Jorge Blanco Alonso

Domain-specific languages (DSLs) play an increasingly important role in the generation of high performing software. They allow the user to exploit domain knowledge for the generation of more efficient code on target architectures. Here, we describe a new c ...

Compiler Generation for Performance-Oriented Embedded DSLs (Short Paper)

Christoph Koch, Amir Shaikhha, Vojin Jovanovic

In this paper, we present a framework for generating optimizing compilers for performance-oriented embedded DSLs (EDSLs). This framework provides facilities to automatically generate the boilerplate code required for building DSL compilers on top of the ex ...

Shrink It or Shed It! Minimize the Use of LSQs in Dataflow Designs

Paolo Ienne, Andrea Guerrieri, Lana Josipovic, Atri Bhattacharyya

When applications have unpredictable memory accesses or irregular control flow, dataflow circuits overcome the limitations of statically scheduled high-level synthesis (HLS). If memory dependences cannot be determined at compile time, dataflow circuits rel ...

A Practical Unification of Multi-stage Programming and Macros

Cross-Platform Language Design in Scala.js (Keynote)

Sébastien Jean Robert Doeraene

Have you ever wondered what is the secret sauce of Scala.js? What defines Scala.js, above all else, is the overarching will to make it cross-platform. A cross-platform language is both portable-most source code cross-compiles and behaves the same way on mu ...
