Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.

On the Performance of Software Transactional Memory

Aleksandar Dragojevic

The recent proliferation of multi-core processors has moved concurrent programming into mainstream by forcing increasingly more programmers to write parallel code. Using traditional concurrency techniques, such as locking, is notoriously difficult and has ...

Approximation Algorithms for Modern Multi-Processor Scheduling Problems

Martin Niemeier

This thesis is devoted to the design and analysis of algorithms for scheduling problems. These problems are ubiquitous in the modern world. Examples include the optimization of local transportation, managing access to concurrent resources like runways at a ...

Obstruction degree: measuring concurrency in shared memory systems

Rachid Guerraoui, Mihai Letia

This paper presents the notion of obstruction degree, a new metric for reasoning about the scalability of concurrent algorithms. Essentially, this simple metric gives an indication as to which of two concurrent algorithms is expected to scale better, as we ...

High-Performance RMA-Based Broadcast on the Intel SCC

André Schiper, Thomas Ropars, Omid Shahmirzadi, Darko Petrovic

Many-core chips with more than 1000 cores are expected by the end of the decade. To overcome scalability issues related to cache coherence at such a scale, one of the main research directions is to leverage the message-passing programming model. The Intel ...

Data Races vs. Data Race Bugs: Telling the Difference with Portend

George Candea, Cristian Zamfir, Baris Can Cengiz Kasikci

Even though most data races are harmless, the harmful ones are at the heart of some of the worst concurrency bugs. Alas, spotting just the harmful data races in programs is like finding a needle in a haystack: 76%-90% of the true data races reported by sta ...

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 ...

Of Choices, Failures and Asynchrony: The Many Faces of Set Agreement

Rachid Guerraoui, Seth Gilbert, Dan Alistarh

Set agreement is a fundamental problem in distributed computing in which processes collectively choose a small subset of values from a larger set of proposals. The impossibility of fault-tolerant set agreement in asynchronous networks is one of the seminal ...

Asynchronous Broadcast on the Intel SCC using Interrupts

André Schiper, Thomas Ropars, Omid Shahmirzadi, Darko Petrovic

This paper focuses on the design of an asynchronous broadcast primitive on the Intel SCC. Our solution is based on OC-Bcast, a state-of-the-art k-ary tree synchronous broadcast algorithm that leverages the parallelism provided by on-chip Remote Memory Acce ...

How to Allocate Tasks Asynchronously

Rachid Guerraoui, Seth Gilbert, Dan Alistarh

Asynchronous task allocation is a fundamental problem in distributed computing, in which p asyn- chronous processes must execute a set of m tasks. Also known as write-all or do-all, this problem been studied extensively, both independently and as a key bui ...

Consensus in the presence of mortal Byzantine faulty processes

Martin Biely

We consider the problem of reaching agreement in distributed systems in which some processes may deviate from their prescribed behavior before they eventually crash. We call this failure model "mortal Byzantine". After discussing some application examples ...
