Lightweight Snapshots and System-level Backtracking

George Candea, Edouard Bugnion, Vitaly Chipounov

We propose a new system-level abstraction, the lightweight immutable execution snapshot, which combines the immutable characteristics of checkpoints with the direct integration into the virtual memory subsystem of standard mutable address spaces. The abstr ...

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 ...

Scala Macros: Let Our Powers Combine!

Eugene Burmako

Compile-time metaprogramming has been proven immensely useful enabling programming techniques such as language virtualization, embedding of external DSLs, self-optimization, and boilerplate generation amongst many others. In the recent production release o ...

Optimizing Data Structures in High-Level Programs New Directions for Extensible Compilers based on Staging

Martin Odersky, Tiark Rompf, Nada Amin, Vojin Jovanovic, Manohar Jonnalagedda

High level data structures are a cornerstone of modern programming and at the same time stand in the way of compiler optimizations. In order to reason about user or library-defined data structures, compilers need to be extensible. Common mechanisms to exte ...

Relative Effect Declarations for Lightweight Effect-Polymorphism

Martin Odersky, Lukas Rytz

Type-and-effect systems are a well-studied approach for reasoning about the computational behavior of programs. A major roadblock in adopting effect systems in popular languages is the tradeoff between expressiveness and verbosity. In this technical report ...

A SOFT Way for OpenFlow Switch Interoperability Testing

Dejan Kostic, Marco Canini, Peter Peresini, Maciej Leszek Kuzniar

The increasing adoption of Software Defined Networking, and OpenFlow in particular, brings great hope for increasing extensibility and lowering costs of deploying new network functionality. A key component in these networks is the OpenFlow agent, a piece o ...

RRB-Trees: Efficient Immutable Vectors

Tiark Rompf

Immutable vectors are a convenient data structure for functional programming and part of the standard library of modern languages like Clojure and Scala. The common implementation is based on wide trees with a fixed number of children per node, which allow ...

Transaction Polymorphism

Rachid Guerraoui, Vincent Gramoli

Concurrent implementations of abstract types usually rely on lock-free primitives or locks and are highly tuned to support a finite set of efficient operations. However, it is very hard to extend such types for specific needs by adding new operations. The ...

Semantic Trajectories

Zhixian Yan

Thanks to the rapid development of mobile sensing technologies (like GPS, GSM, RFID, accelerometer, gyroscope, sound and other sensors in smartphones), the large-scale capture of evolving positioning data (called mobility data or trajectories) generated by ...
