An Iterative Method for Mapping-Aware Frequency Regulation in Dataflow Circuits

Andrea Guerrieri, Lana Josipovic, Carmine Rizzi

Dataflow circuits promise to overcome the scheduling limitations of standard HLS solutions. However, their performance suffers due to timing overheads caused by their handshake communication protocol. Current pipelining solutions fail to account for logic ...

Differentiated consistency for worldwide gossips

Davide Frey, Pierre-Louis Blaise Roman

Eventual consistency is a consistency model that favors liveness over safety. It is often used in large-scale distributed systems where models ensuring a stronger safety incur performance that are too low to be deemed practical. Eventual consistency tends ...

Tuning interactions in reconfigurable kagome artificial spin ices for magnonics

Dirk Grundler, Vinayak Shantaram Bhat

We report broadband spin-wave spectroscopy on kagome artificial spin ices (KASIs) made of large arrays of disconnected Ni81Fe19 400-nm-long nanobars. We observed spin wave spectra that varied characteristically upon the separation between neighboring nanob ...

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 ...

Fractionation of lignocellulosic biomass to produce uncondensed aldehyde-stabilized lignin

Jeremy Luterbacher, Masoud Talebi Amiri, Ydna Marie Questell-Santiago, Graham Reid Dick

Lignin is one of the most promising sources of renewable aromatic hydrocarbons. Current methods for its extraction from lignocellulosic biomass—which include the kraft, sulfite, and organosolv processes—result in the rapid formation of carbon–carbon bonds, ...

How to Measure the Killer Microsecond

Edouard Bugnion, Aikaterini Argyraki, Mia Primorac

Datacenter-networking research requires tools to both generate traffic and accurately measure latency and throughput. While hardware-based tools have long existed commercially, they are primarily used to validate ASICs and lack flexibility, e.g. to study n ...

Efficiently Making Secure Two-Party Computation Fair

Handan Kilinç Alper

Secure two-party computation cannot be fair against malicious adversaries, unless a trusted third party (TTP) or a gradual-release type super-constant round protocol is employed. Existing optimistic fair two-party computation protocols with constant rounds ...

Metadata Protection Considerations for TLS Present and Future

Bryan Alexander Ford

TLS 1.3 takes important steps to improve both performance and security, so far offers little protection against traffic analysis or fingerprinting using unencrypted metadata or other side-channels such as transmission lengths and timings. This paper explor ...
