Forge: Generating a High Performance DSL Implementation from a Declarative Specification

Domain-specific languages provide a promising path to automatically compile high-level code to parallel, heterogeneous, and distributed hardware. However, in practice high performance DSLs still require considerable software expertise to develop and force ...

On Lock-Free Work-stealing Iterators for Parallel Data Structures

Martin Odersky, Aleksandar Prokopec, Dmytro Petrashko

With the rise of multicores, there is a trend of supporting data-parallel collection operations in general purpose programming languages. These operations are highly parametric, incurring abstraction performance penalties. Furthermore, data-parallel operat ...

Thermal-Hydraulic Analysis of LTS Cables for the DEMO TF Coil

Kamil Sedlák

Two preliminary design concepts for the low T-C. superconductor Toroidal Field coil system of the planned European fusion reactor DEMO were proposed in 2012 by EPFL-CRPP PSI Villigen and ENEA Frascati. The coil consists of eight double layers (DLs) wound u ...

Composing Relaxed Transactions

Rachid Guerraoui, Vincent Gramoli, Mihai Letia

As the classic transactional abstraction is sometimes considered too restrictive in leveraging parallelism, a lot of work has been devoted to devising relaxed transactional models with the goal of improving concurrency. Nevertheless, the quest for improvin ...

Cell Guidance on Nanogratings: A Computational Model of the Interplay between PC12 Growth Cones and Nanostructures

Silvestro Micera

Background: Recently, the effects of nanogratings have been investigated on PC12 with respect to cell polarity, neuronal differentiation, migration, maturation of focal adhesions and alignment of neurites. Methodology/Principal Findings: A synergistic proc ...

Bridging Islands of Specialized Code using Macros and Reified Types

Nicolas Alexander Stucki, Vlad Ureche

Parametric polymorphism in Scala suffers from the usual drawback of erasure on the Java Virtual Machine: primitive values are boxed, leading to indirect access, wasteful use of heap memory and lack of cache locality. For performance-critical parts of the c ...

Miniboxing: Improving the Speed to Code Size Tradeoff in Parametric Polymorphism Translations

Martin Odersky, Vlad Ureche, Cristian Talau

Parametric polymorphism enables code reuse and type safety. Underneath the uniform interface exposed to programmers, however, its low level implementation has to cope with inherently non-uniform data: value types of different sizes and semantics (bytes, in ...

What are the Odds? Probabilistic programming in Scala

Tiark Rompf, Nada Amin, Sandro Stucki, Manohar Jonnalagedda

Probabilistic programming is a powerful high-level paradigm for probabilistic modeling and inference. We present Odds, a small domain-specific language (DSL) for probabilistic programming, embedded in Scala. Odds provides first-class support for random var ...

Widget-Based Approach for Remote Control Labs

Denis Gillet, Christophe Salzmann, Evgeny Bogdanov

The paper presents a novel approach to conduct laboratory experiments in relation with the Control class taught at EPFL. The existing laboratory interface built as a Java applet, which allows students to access experimentation devices locally or remotely, ...
