ACTOR: Action-Guided Kernel Fuzzing

Fuzzing reliably and efficiently finds bugs in software, including operating system kernels. In general, higher code coverage leads to the discovery of more bugs. This is why most existing kernel fuzzers adopt strategies to generate a series of inputs that ...

SecureCells: A Secure Compartmentalized Architecture

Babak Falsafi, Mathias Josef Payer, Yuanlong Li, Andrés Sánchez Marín, Florian Hofhammer, Siddharth Gupta, Atri Bhattacharyya

Modern programs are monolithic, combining code of varied provenance without isolation, all the while running on network-connected devices. A vulnerability in any component may compromise code and data of all other components. Compartmentalization separates ...

An Optimizing Multi-platform Source-to-source Compiler Framework for the NEURON MODeling Language

Felix Schürmann, James Gonzalo King, Michael Lee Hines, Pramod Shivaji Kumbhar, Omar Awile, Jorge Blanco Alonso, Liam Roger George Keegan

Domain-specific languages (DSLs) play an increasingly important role in the generation of high performing software. They allow the user to exploit domain knowledge for the generation of more efficient code on target architectures. Here, we describe a new c ...

A Practical Unification of Multi-stage Programming and Macros

Martin Odersky, Nicolas Alexander Stucki

Program generation is indispensable. We propose a novel unification of two existing metaprogramming techniques: multi-stage programming and hygienic generative macros. The former supports runtime code generation and execution in a type-safe manner while th ...

Code Generation in Computational Neuroscience: A Review of Tools and Techniques

Michael Lee Hines, Pramod Shivaji Kumbhar, Romain Brette

Advances in experimental techniques and computational power allowing researchers to gather anatomical and electrophysiological data at unprecedented levels of detail have fostered the development of increasingly complex models in computational neuroscience ...

Cross-Platform Language Design in Scala.js (Keynote)

Sébastien Jean R Doeraene

Have you ever wondered what is the secret sauce of Scala.js? What defines Scala.js, above all else, is the overarching will to make it cross-platform. A cross-platform language is both portable-most source code cross-compiles and behaves the same way on mu ...

Compressed Sensing for Dose Reduction in STEM Tomography

Michaël Unser, Laurène Donati, Masih Nilchian

We designed a complete acquisition-reconstruction framework to reduce the radiation dosage in 3D scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM). Projection measurements are acquired by randomly scanning a subset of pixels at every tilt-view (i.e., random ...

Quoted Staged Rewriting: A Practical Approach to Library-Defined Optimizations

Christoph Koch, Amir Shaikhha, Lionel Emile Vincent Parreaux

Staging has proved a successful technique for programmatically removing code abstractions, thereby allowing for faster program execution while retaining a high-level interface for the programmer. Unfortunately, techniques based on staging suffer from a num ...

A Fourier dimensionality reduction model for big data interferometric imaging

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Yves Wiaux, Rafael Eduardo Carrillo Rangel, Vijay Kartik

Data dimensionality reduction in radio interferometry can provide savings of computational resources for image reconstruction through reduced memory footprints and lighter computations per iteration, which is important for the scalability of imaging method ...

Automatic Generation of Efficient Accelerators for Reconfigurable Hardware

Christos Kozyrakis, Yunqi Zhang

Acceleration in the form of customized datapaths offer large performance and energy improvements over general purpose processors. Reconfigurable fabrics such as FPGAs are gaining popularity for use in implementing application-specific accelerators, thereby ...

Representation of Medical Guidelines with a Computer Interpretable Model

Giovanni De Micheli, Alena Simalatsar, Wenqi You Dubout

Nowadays medical software is tightly coupled with medical devices that perform patient state monitoring and lately even some basic treatment procedures. Medical guidelines (GLs) can be seen as specification of a medical system which requires their computer ...

-Overify: Optimizing Programs for Fast Verification

George Candea, Volodymyr Kuznetsov, Jonas Benedict Wagner

Developers rely on automated testing and verification tools to gain confidence in their software. The input to such tools is often generated by compilers that have been designed to generate code that runs fast, not code that can be verified easily and quic ...

Two-Phase Flow Control of Electronics Cooling With Pseudo-CPUs in Parallel Flow Circuits: Dynamic Modeling and Experimental Evaluation

John Richard Thome, Jackson Braz Marcinichen, Nicolas Lamaison

On-chip two-phase cooling of parallel pseudo-CPUs integrated into a liquid pumped cooling cycle is modeled and experimentally verified versus a prototype test loop. The system's dynamic operation is studied since the heat dissipated by microprocessors is c ...

Alternating Control Flow Reconstruction

Johannes Kinder

Unresolved indirect branch instructions are a major obstacle for statically reconstructing a control flow graph (CFG) from machine code. If static analysis cannot compute a precise set of possible targets for a branch, the necessary conservative over-appro ...

On-Chip Two-Phase Cooling with Refrigerant 85 mu m-Wide Multi-Microchannel Evaporator Under Hot-Spot Conditions

John Richard Thome, Stefano Nebuloni, Jonathan Olivier, Etienne Costa-Patry

Hot-spots are present in micro-electronics and are challenging to cool effectively. This paper presents highly nonuniform heat flux measurements obtained for a pseudo-CPU with 35 local heaters and temperature sensors cooled by a silicon multi-microchannel ...

Compiling generics through user-directed type specialization

Martin Odersky, Iulian Dragos

Compilation of polymorphic code through type erasure gives compact code but performance on primitive types is significantly hurt. Full specialization gives good performance, but at the cost of increased code size and compilation time. Instead we propose a ...

Reproducible Research in Signal Processing - What, why, and how

Martin Vetterli, Patrick Vandewalle

Have you ever tried to reproduce the results presented in a research paper? For many of our current publications, this would unfortunately be a challenging task. For a computational algorithm, details such as the exact data set, initialization or terminati ...
