Speculative execution attacks, such as Spectre, reuse code from the victim’s binary to access and leak secret information during speculative execution. Every variant of the attack requires very particular code sequences, necessitating elaborate gadget-sear ...

Speculative Dataflow Circuits

Paolo Ienne, Andrea Guerrieri, Lana Josipovic

With FPGAs facing broader application domains, the conversion of imperative languages into dataflow circuits has been recently revamped as a way to overcome the conservatism of statically scheduled high-level synthesis. Apart from the ability to extract pa ...

Gem5-X: A Gem5-Based System Level Simulation Framework to Optimize Many-Core Platforms

David Atienza Alonso, Marina Zapater Sancho, William Andrew Simon, Yasir Mahmood Qureshi

The rapid expansion of online-based services requires novel energy and performance efficient architectures to meet power and latency constraints. Fast architectural exploration has become a key enabler in the proposal of architectural innovation. In this p ...

Stretch: Balancing QoS and Throughput for Colocated Server Workloads on SMT Cores

Boris Robert Grot, Siddharth Gupta

In a drive to maximize resource utilization, today's datacenters are moving to colocation of latency-sensitive and batch workloads on the same server. State-of-the-art deployments, such as those at Google, colocate such diverse workloads even on a single S ...

Performance Contracts for Software Network Functions

George Candea, Solal Vincenzo Pirelli, Arseniy Zaostrovnykh, Rishabh Ramesh Iyer, Luis David Figueiredo Mascarenhas Moreira Pedrosa

Software network functions (NFs), or middleboxes, promise flexibility and easy deployment of network services but face the serious challenge of unexpected performance behaviour. We propose the notion of a performance contract, a construct formulated in ter ...

Privacy of Real-Time Pricing in Smart Grid

Maryam Kamgarpour, Christos Dimitrakakis

Installing smart meters to publish real-time electricity rates has been controversial while it might lead to privacy concerns. Dispatched rates include fine-grained data on aggregate electricity consumption in a zone and could potentially be used to infer ...

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 ...

Computational tools for the fatigue life modeling and prediction of composite materials and structures

Anastasios Vassilopoulos

Structural testing is probably the best and only way to reveal the actual performance of composite laminates, structural components, and complete composite structures under fatigue loading. Nevertheless, the high cost, and the multitude of loading cases a ...

In order to optimize the energy use of servers in Data Centers, techniques such as power capping or power budgeting are usually deployed. These techniques rely on the prediction of the power and execution time of applications. These data are obtained via d ...

Dynamically-scheduled elastic circuits generated by High-Level Synthesis (HLS) tools are inherently out-of-order, following the flow of data rather than the evolution of an instruction pointer. Components of the circuit which access memory need to be conne ...
