ACACIA: a new method to produce on-the-fly merger trees in the RAMSES code

Mladen Ivkovic

The implementation of ACACIA, a new algorithm to generate dark matter halo merger trees with the Adaptive Mesh Refinement code RAMSES, is presented. The algorithm is fully parallel and based on the Message Passing Interface. As opposed to most available me ...

A modular functional framework for the design and evaluation of multi-robot navigation

Alcherio Martinoli, Cyrill Silvan Baumann

In this work, we address the design of tightly integrated control, estimation, and allocation algorithms allowing a group of robots to move collectively. For doing so, we leverage a modular framework that allows us to define precisely the needed functional ...

DATASHARENETWORK A Decentralized Privacy-Preserving Search Engine for Investigative Journalists

Carmela González Troncoso, Wouter Lueks, Laurent Girod

Investigative journalists collect large numbers of digital documents during their investigations. These documents can greatly benefit other journalists' work. However, many of these documents contain sensitive information. Hence, possessing such documents ...

Operating System and Network Co-Design for Latency-Critical Datacenter Applications

Evangelos Marios Kogias

Datacenters are the heart of our digital lives. Online applications, such as social-networking and e-commerce, run inside datacenters under strict Service Level Objectives for their tail latency. Tight latency SLOs are necessary for such services to remain ...

Explicit dynamic approach for unbounded domains in frictional contact with Rate and State laws

Jean-François Molinari, Roozbeh Rezakhani

The paper explores the ability of an explicit time integration procedure to simulate the dynamics of shear rupture between unbounded elastic blocks on frictional interface, modeled with the finite element method. The behaviour of the interface is governed ...

What graph neural networks cannot learn: depth vs width

Andreas Loukas

This paper studies the expressive power of graph neural networks falling within the message-passing framework (GNNmp). Two results are presented. First, GNNmp are shown to be Turing universal under sufficient conditions on their depth, width, node attribut ...

The weakest failure detector for eventual consistency

Rachid Guerraoui

In its classical form, a consistent replicated service requires all replicas to witness the same evolution of the service state. If we consider an asynchronous messagepassing environment in which processes might fail by crashing, and assume that a majority ...

R2P2: Making RPCs first-class datacenter citizens

Edouard Bugnion, Evangelos Marios Kogias, Adrien Ghosn, Georgios Prekas, Jonas Fietz

Remote Procedure Calls are widely used to connect datacenter applications with strict tail-latency service level objectives in the scale of µs. Existing solutions utilize streaming or datagram-based transport protocols for RPCs that impose overheads and li ...

A Minimally Intrusive Low-Memory Approach to Resilience for Existing Transient Solvers

Allan Svejstrup Nielsen

We propose a novel, minimally intrusive approach to adding fault tolerance to existing complex scientific simulation codes, used for addressing a broad range of time-dependent problems on the next generation of supercomputers. Exascale systems have the pot ...

RPCValet: NI-Driven Tail-Aware Balancing of µs-Scale RPCs

Babak Falsafi, Alexandros Daglis, Mark Johnathon Sutherland

Modern online services come with stringent quality requirements in terms of response time tail latency. Because of their decomposition into fine-grained communicating software layers, a single user request fans out into a plethora of short, μs-scale RPCs, ...

Scalable Synchronization in Shared-Memory Systems: Extrapolating, Adapting, Tuning

Georgios Chatzopoulos

As hardware evolves, so do the needs of applications. To increase the performance of an application, there exist two well-known approaches. These are scaling up an application, using a larger multi-core platform, or scaling out, by distributing work to mul ...

Single-server Multi-user Private Information Retrieval with Side Information

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Su Li

In the problem of private information retrieval with side information, a single user wants to recover one of the K independent messages which are stored at one or multiple servers. The user initially has a subset of messages as side information. The goal o ...

The Complexity of Reliable and Secure Distributed Transactions

Jingjing Wang

The use of transactions in distributed systems dates back to the 70's. The last decade has also seen the proliferation of transactional systems. In the existing transactional systems, many protocols employ a centralized approach in executing a distributed ...
