Graph Chatbot

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.

Concurrent Search Data Structures Can Be Blocking and Practically Wait-Free

Rachid Guerraoui, Tudor Alexandru David

We argue that there is virtually no practical situation in which one should seek a "theoretically wait-free" algorithm at the expense of a state-of-the-art blocking algorithm in the case of search data structures: blocking algorithms are simple, fast, and ...

Automating Live Update for Generic Server Programs

Calin Iorgulescu

The pressing demand to deploy software updates without stopping running programs has fostered much research on live update systems in the past decades. Prior solutions, however, either make strong assumptions on the nature of the update or require extensiv ...

Traversal Query Language For Scala.Meta

Eugene Burmako, Eric Beguet

With the rise of metaprogramming in Scala, manipulating ASTs has become a daily job. Yet the standard API provides only low-level mechanisms to transform or to collect information on those data structures. Moreover, those mechanisms often force the program ...

Asynchronous memory access chaining

Babak Falsafi, Boris Robert Grot, Yusuf Onur Koçberber

In-memory databases rely on pointer-intensive data structures to quickly locate data in memory. A single lookup operation in such data structures often exhibits long-latency memory stalls due to dependent pointer dereferences. Hiding the memory latency by ...

Interoperation between Miniboxing and Other Generics Translations

Milos Stojanovic

Generics allow programmers to design algorithms and data structures that operate in the same way regardless of the data used by abstracting over data types. Generics are useful as they improve the programmer’s productivity by raising the level of abstracti ...

Learning Image Descriptors with Boosting

Vincent Lepetit, Tomasz Piotr Trzcinski, Christos Marios Christoudias

We propose a novel and general framework to learn compact but highly discriminative floating-point and binary local feature descriptors. By leveraging the boosting-trick we first show how to efficiently train a compact floating-point descriptor that is ver ...

Concurrent Tries with Efficient Non-Blocking Snapshots

Martin Odersky, Aleksandar Prokopec

We describe a non-blocking concurrent hash trie based on shared-memory single-word compare-and-swap instructions. The hash trie supports standard mutable lock-free operations such as insertion, removal, lookup and their conditional variants. To ensure spac ...

On Reductions for Synthesis Procedures

Viktor Kuncak, Philippe Paul Henri Suter, Swen Jacobs

A synthesis procedure acts as a compiler for declarative specifications. It accepts a formula describing a relation between inputs and outputs, and generates a function implementing this relation. This paper presents synthesis procedures for data structure ...

Decision Procedures for Program Synthesis and Verification

Ruzica Piskac

Decision procedures are widely used in software development and verification. The goal of this dissertation is to increase the scope of properties that can be verified using decision procedures. To achieve this goal, we identify three improvements over the ...
