Ukrainian Literary Imaginaries of Past after 1991: From Substitution to Restoration?

Alexander Dmitriev

This chapter offers a new view of post-Soviet Ukrainain literary memory as expressed in varous texts, redefining the role of clashing narratives of the past under the divisive political and social conditions of upheavals, crises, and military conflicts. Th ...

Secure Interface Design Leveraging Hardware/Software Support

Atri Bhattacharyya

Computer systems rely heavily on abstraction to manage the exponential growth of complexity across hardware and software. Due to practical considerations of compatibility between components of these complex systems across generations, developers have favou ...

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 ...

Caching and Neutrality

Pavlos Nikolopoulos, Muhammad Abdullah, Aikaterini Argyraki

We are used to defining network neutrality as absence of traffic differentiation, like policing or shaping. These mechanisms, however, are often not what determines end-users’ quality of experience (QoE). Most content today is accessed through edge caches, ...

HPCache: memory-efficient OLAP through proportional caching revisited

Anastasia Ailamaki, Hamish Mcniece Hill Nicholson, Periklis Chrysogelos

Analytical engines rely on in-memory data caching to avoid storage accesses and provide timely responses by keeping the most frequently accessed data in memory. Purely frequency- and time-based caching decisions, however, are a proxy of the expected query ...

TiC-SAT: Tightly-coupled Systolic Accelerator for Transformers

David Atienza Alonso, Giovanni Ansaloni, Alireza Amirshahi, Joshua Alexander Harrison Klein

Transformer models have achieved impressive results in various AI scenarios, ranging from vision to natural language processing. However, their computational complexity and their vast number of parameters hinder their implementations on resource-constraine ...

A dynamic attractor network model of memory formation, reinforcement and forgetting

Wulfram Gerstner, Chiara Gastaldi, Marta Boscaglia

Empirical evidence shows that memories that are frequently revisited are easy to recall, and that familiar items involve larger hippocampal representations than less familiar ones. In line with these observations, here we develop a modelling approach to pr ...

Rebooting Virtual Memory with Midgard

Siddharth Gupta

Virtual Memory (VM) is a critical programming abstraction that is widely used in various modern computing platforms. With the rise of datacenter computing and birth of planet-scale online services, the semantic and capacity requirements from memory have ev ...
