IO Pattern Aware Methods to Improve the Performance and Lifetime of NAND SSD
Modern SSDs can store multiple bits per transistor which enables it to have higher
storage capacities. Low cost per bit of such SSDs has made it a commercial success. As
of 2018, cells with an ability to store three bits ...
Algorithms for Multilingual IR in Low Resource Languages using Weakly Aligned Corpora
Multilingual information retrieval (MLIR) methods generally rely on linguistic resources such
as dictionaries, parallel corpora, etc., to overcome the language barrier. For low resource
languages without these resources, ...
Integrating Read-Copy-Update Synchronization and Memory Allocation
The evolution of multicore systems with thousands of cores has led to the exploration
of non-traditional procrastination-based synchronization techniques such as Read-Copy-
Update (RCU). Deferred destruction is the ...
Analysis and Methods for Knowledge Graph Embeddings
Knowledge Graphs (KGs) are multi-relational graphs where nodes represent entities, and typed edges represent relationships among entities. These graphs store real-world facts such as (Lionel Messi, plays-for-team, Barcelona) ...
Modeling and verification of database-accessing applications
Databases are central to the functioning of most IT-enabled processes and services. In many
domains, databases are accessed and updated via applications written in general-purpose lan-
guages, as such applications need ...
Extending Program Analysis Techniques to Web Applications and Distributed Systems
Web-based applications and distributed systems are ubiquitous and indispensable today. These
systems use multiple parallel machines for greater functionality, and efficient and reliable computation.
At the same time they ...
Approximation Algorithms for Geometric Packing Problems
We study approximation algorithms for the geometric bin packing problem and its variants. In the two-dimensional geometric bin packing problem (2D GBP), we are given n rectangular items and we have to compute an axis-parallel ...
A Novel Neural Network Architecture for Sentiment-oriented Aspect-Opinion Pair Extraction
Over the years, fine-grained opinion mining in online reviews has received great attention from the
NLP research community. It involves different tasks such as Aspect Term Extraction (ATE), Opinion Term Extraction (OTE), ...
Scaling Blockchains Using Coding Theory and Verifiable Computing
The issue of scalability has been restricting blockchain from its widespread adoption. The
current transaction rate of bitcoin is around seven transactions/second while its size has crossed
the 300 GB mark. Although many ...
A Framework for Privacy-Compliant Delivery Drones
We present Privaros, a framework to enforce privacy policies on drones. Privaros is designed for commercial delivery drones, such as the ones that will likely be used by Amazon Prime Air. Such drones visit a number of host ...
