uKharon: A Membership Service for Microsecond Applications

Rachid Guerraoui, Antoine Murat, Javier Picorel Obando, Athanasios Xygkis

Modern data center fabrics open the possibility of microsecond distributed applications, such as data stores and message queues. A challenging aspect of their development is to ensure that, besides being fast in the common case, these applications react fa ...

Electroadhesive gripping system and method for gripping an object

Herbert Shea, Vito Cacucciolo, Krishna Manaswi Digumarti

An electroadhesive gripping system and a method for gripping and manipulating an object are disclosed. The invention provides a novel approach particularly useful to pick fabrics or otherwise flat and flexible objects including a method relying on electroa ...

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, ...

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 ...

Constraint-Flow Nets: A Model for Building Constraints from Resource Dependencies

Simon Bliudze, Alena Simalatsar, Alina Zolotukhina

The major research in the resource management literature focuses primarily on two complementary sub-problems: (1) specification languages for formulating resource requests and (2) constraint problems modelling allocation and scheduling. Both directions ass ...

Modelling Resource Dependencies

Simon Bliudze, Alena Simalatsar, Alina Zolotukhina

The major research in the resource management literature focuses primarily on two directions: 1) specification languages for formulating resource requests and 2) constraint problems modelling allocation and scheduling. Both directions assume the knowledge ...

Learning to Segments Objects Candidates

Ronan Collobert, Pedro Henrique Oliveira Pinheiro

Recent object detection systems rely on two critical steps: (1) a set of object proposals is predicted as efficiently as possible, and (2) this set of candidate proposals is then passed to an object classifier. Such approaches have been shown they can be f ...

Speculative Linearizability

Rachid Guerraoui, Viktor Kuncak, Giuliano Losa

Linearizability is a key design methodology for reasoning about implementations of concurrent abstract data types in both shared memory and message passing systems. It provides the illusion that operations execute sequentially and fault-free, despite the a ...

A Data-oriented Transaction Execution Engine and Supporting Tools

Anastasia Ailamaki, Miguel Sérgio De Oliveira Branco, Frederick Ryan Johnson, Pinar Tözün, Ippokratis Pandis, Danica Porobic, Dimitrios Karampinas

Conventional OLTP systems assign each transaction to a worker thread and that thread accesses data, depending on what the transaction dictates. This thread-to-transaction work assignment policy leads to unpredictable accesses. The unpredictability forces e ...
