1038 A10s Fit into One A0

Authors: Noel Friedrich

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 366, 13th International Conference on Fun with Algorithms (FUN 2026)

Abstract
The A-series paper sizes are specified in integer millimetres in ISO 216. Since the sizes are based on an irrational aspect ratio, rounding errors introduce small but cumulative discrepancies from their nominal areas. In this work, we prove that exactly 1038 sheets of ISO A10 can be packed without overlap into a single ISO A0 sheet, allowing only orthogonal (axis-aligned) placements. A lower bound is given by an explicit construction, while the upper bound is proved by a simple-to-verify computer-assisted certificate. Along the way, the dual certificates produce unexpectedly pretty weightmaps.

Tight Loops, Smooth Streams: Responsive Congestion Control for Real-Time Video

Authors: Pantea Karimi, Sadjad Fouladi, Vibhaalakshmi Sivaraman, and Mohammad Alizadeh

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 139, 1st New Ideas in Networked Systems (NINeS 2026)

Abstract
Real-time video streaming relies on rate control to match video bitrate to network capacity while keeping latency low. Existing deployed video rate controllers react slowly to network changes, causing under-utilization and latency spikes. In contrast, modern delay-sensitive congestion control algorithms (CCAs) adapt on round-trip-time timescales, maintaining a tight feedback loop that achieves both high utilization and low latency. We introduce Vidaptive, a lightweight framework that enables real-time video to leverage responsive CCAs without codec changes. Vidaptive decouples encoding from transmission: it paces video frames at the CCA’s rate and injects dummy packets when the encoder output is insufficient, preserving a continuous feedback loop. An online algorithm dynamically adjusts the encoder’s target bitrate to align with CCA capacity while bounding frame latency. Implemented in Google WebRTC, Vidaptive improves both video quality and tail latency on diverse cellular traces. Compared to GCC, it delivers 1.5× higher bitrate, +40% VMAF, +1.4 dB SSIM, +1.3 dB PSNR, and reduces 95th-percentile frame latency by 57% (2.2 seconds). Against Salsify, it achieves lower tail latency without invasive codec modifications. These results show that coupling existing CCAs with a thin adaptation layer can outperform specialized video rate controllers while remaining deployable in practice.

Quantum Speedups for Polynomial-Time Dynamic Programming Algorithms

Authors: Susanna Caroppo, Giordano Da Lozzo, Giuseppe Di Battista, Michael T. Goodrich, and Martin Nöllenburg

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 349, 19th International Symposium on Algorithms and Data Structures (WADS 2025)

Abstract
We introduce a quantum dynamic programming framework that allows us to directly extend to the quantum realm a large body of classical dynamic programming algorithms. The corresponding quantum dynamic programming algorithms retain the same space complexity as their classical counterpart, while achieving a computational speedup. For a combinatorial (search or optimization) problem P and an instance I of P, such a speedup can be expressed in terms of the average degree δ of the {dependency digraph} G_𝒫(I) of I, determined by a recursive formulation of P. The nodes of this graph are the subproblems of P induced by I and its arcs are directed from each subproblem to those on whose solution it relies. In particular, our framework allows us to solve the considered problems in Õ(|V(G_𝒫(I))| √δ) time. As an example, we obtain a quantum version of the Bellman-Ford algorithm for computing shortest paths from a single source vertex to all the other vertices in a weighted n-vertex digraph with m edges that runs in Õ(n√{nm}) time, which improves the best known classical upper bound when m ∈ Ω(n^{1.4}).

First-Order Store and Visibility in Name-Passing Calculi

Authors: Daniel Hirschkoff, Iwan Quémerais, and Davide Sangiorgi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 348, 36th International Conference on Concurrency Theory (CONCUR 2025)

Abstract
The π-calculus is the paradigmatical name-passing calculus. While being purely name-passing, it allows the representation of higher-order functions and store. We study how π-calculus processes can be controlled so that computations can only involve storage of first-order values. The discipline is enforced by a type system that is based on the notion of visibility, coming from game semantics. We discuss the impact of visibility on the behavioural theory. We propose characterisations of may-testing and barbed equivalence, based on (variants of) trace equivalence and labelled bisimilarity, in the case where computation is sequential, and in the case where computation is well-bracketed.

Elements for Weighted Answer-Set Programming

Authors: Francisco Coelho, Bruno Dinis, Dietmar Seipel, and Salvador Abreu

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 135, 14th Symposium on Languages, Applications and Technologies (SLATE 2025)

Abstract
Logic programs, more specifically, answer-set programs, can be annotated with probabilities on facts to express uncertainty. We address the problem of propagating weight annotations on facts (e.g. probabilities) of an answer-set program to its stable models, and from there to events (defined as sets of atoms) in a dataset over the program’s domain. We propose a novel approach which is algebraic in the sense that it relies on an equivalence relation over the set of events. Uncertainty is then described as polynomial expressions over variables. We propagate the weight function in the space of models and events, rather than doing so within the syntax of the program. As evidence that our approach is sound, we show that certain facts behave as expected. Our approach allows us to investigate weight annotated programs and to determine how suitable a given one is for modeling a given dataset containing events. It’s core is illustrated by a running example and the encoding of a Bayesian network.

Ensuring Convergence and Invariants Without Coordination

Authors: Dina Borrego, Nuno Preguiça, Elisa Gonzalez Boix, and Carla Ferreira

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 333, 39th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2025)

Abstract
The CAP theorem demonstrates a trade-off between consistency and availability (and, by extension, latency) in systems where network partitions are unavoidable, such as in cloud computing and local-first software. While adopting weak consistency can preserve availability, it may result in inconsistencies that compromise application correctness. Replicated data types provide a principled, coordination-free approach to guarantee convergence but do not consider application invariants. Existing methods for maintaining invariants in replicated systems either rely on coordination - undermining the benefits of weak consistency - or suffer from limited applicability. This paper introduces the No-Op framework, a generic approach for enforcing consistency without coordination while guaranteeing both convergence and invariant preservation. The core idea of the No-Op approach is to resolve conflicts among concurrent operations by prioritising one operation over the other according to programmer-defined conflict resolution policies. This prioritisation transforms the less-preferred operation into a no-side-effect operation, ensuring conflict-free execution. We formalise the model underlying the No-Op framework and introduce a replication protocol built upon it, accompanied by a formal proof of correctness for both the framework and the protocol. Furthermore, we demonstrate the framework’s applicability by showcasing the design of widely used replicated data types and the preservation of a wide range of application invariants.

Uncertainty Management in the Construction of Knowledge Graphs: A Survey

Authors: Lucas Jarnac, Yoan Chabot, and Miguel Couceiro

Published in: TGDK, Volume 3, Issue 1 (2025). Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 3, Issue 1

Abstract
Knowledge Graphs (KGs) are a major asset for companies thanks to their great flexibility in data representation and their numerous applications, e.g., vocabulary sharing, Q&A or recommendation systems. To build a KG, it is a common practice to rely on automatic methods for extracting knowledge from various heterogeneous sources. However, in a noisy and uncertain world, knowledge may not be reliable and conflicts between data sources may occur. Integrating unreliable data would directly impact the use of the KG, therefore such conflicts must be resolved. This could be done manually by selecting the best data to integrate. This first approach is highly accurate, but costly and time-consuming. That is why recent efforts focus on automatic approaches, which represent a challenging task since it requires handling the uncertainty of extracted knowledge throughout its integration into the KG. We survey state-of-the-art approaches in this direction and present constructions of both open and enterprise KGs. We then describe different knowledge extraction methods and discuss downstream tasks after knowledge acquisition, including KG completion using embedding models, knowledge alignment, and knowledge fusion in order to address the problem of knowledge uncertainty in KG construction. We conclude with a discussion on the remaining challenges and perspectives when constructing a KG taking into account uncertainty.

SP-IMPact: A Framework for Static Partitioning Interference Mitigation and Performance Analysis

Authors: Diogo Costa, Gonçalo Moreira, Afonso Oliveira, José Martins, and Sandro Pinto

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 128, Sixth Workshop on Next Generation Real-Time Embedded Systems (NG-RES 2025)

Abstract
Modern embedded systems are evolving toward complex, heterogeneous architectures to accommodate increasingly demanding applications. Driven by industry SWAP-C (Size, Weight, Power, and Cost) constraints, this shift has led to the consolidation of multiple systems onto single hardware platforms. Static Partitioning Hypervisors (SPHs) offer a promising solution to partition hardware resources and provide spatial isolation between critical workloads. However, shared hardware resources like the Last-Level Cache (LLC) and system bus can introduce significant temporal interference between virtual machines (VMs), negatively impacting performance and predictability. Over the past decade, academia and industry have focused on developing interference mitigation techniques, such as cache partitioning and memory bandwidth reservation. Configuring these techniques, however, is complex and time-consuming. Cache partitioning requires careful balancing of cache sections across VMs, while memory bandwidth reservation requires tuning bandwidth budgets and periods. With numerous possible configurations, testing all combinations is impractical and often leads to suboptimal configurations. Moreover, there is a gap in understanding how these techniques interact, as their combined use can result in compounded or conflicting effects on system performance. Static analysis solutions that estimate worst-case execution times (WCET) and upper bounds on execution times provide some guidance for configuring interference mitigation techniques. While useful in identifying potential interference effects, these tools often fail to capture the full complexity of modern multi-core systems, as they typically focus on a limited set of shared resources and neglect other sources of contention, such as IOMMUs and interrupt controllers. To address these challenges, we introduce SP-IMPact, an open-source framework designed to analyze and guide the configuration of interference mitigation techniques, through the deployment of diverse VM configurations and setups, and assessment of hardware-level contention (leveraging SPHs). It supports two mitigation techniques: (i) cache coloring and (ii) memory bandwidth reservation, while also evaluating the interactions between these techniques and their cumulative impact on system performance. By providing insights on real hardware platforms, SP-IMPact helps to optimize the configuration of these techniques in mixed-criticality systems, ensuring both performance and predictability.

H-MBR: Hypervisor-Level Memory Bandwidth Reservation for Mixed Criticality Systems

Authors: Afonso Oliveira, Diogo Costa, Gonçalo Moreira, José Martins, and Sandro Pinto

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 128, Sixth Workshop on Next Generation Real-Time Embedded Systems (NG-RES 2025)

Abstract
Recent advancements in fields such as automotive and aerospace have driven a growing demand for robust computational resources. Applications that were once designed for basic Microcontroller Units (MCUs) are now deployed on highly heterogeneous System-on-Chip (SoC) platforms. While these platforms deliver the necessary computational performance, they also present challenges related to resource sharing and predictability. These challenges are particularly pronounced when consolidating safety-critical and non-safety-critical systems, the so-called Mixed-Criticality Systems (MCS) to adhere to strict Size, Weight, Power, and Cost (SWaP-C) requirements. MCS consolidation on shared platforms requires stringent spatial and temporal isolation to comply with functional safety standards (e.g., ISO 26262). Virtualization, mainly leveraged by hypervisors, is a key technology that ensures spatial isolation across multiple OSes and applications; however ensuring temporal isolation remains challenging due to contention on shared resources, such as main memory, caches, and system buses, which impacts real-time performance and predictability. To mitigate this problem, several strategies (e.g., cache coloring and memory bandwidth reservation) have been proposed. Although cache coloring is typically implemented on state-of-the-art hypervisors, memory bandwidth reservation approaches are commonly implemented at the Linux kernel level or rely on dedicated hardware and typically do not consider the concept of Virtual Machines that can run different OSes. To fill the gap between current memory bandwidth reservation solutions and the deployment of MCSs that operate on a hypervisor, this work introduces H-MBR, an open-source VM-centric memory bandwidth reservation mechanism. H-MBR features (i) VM-centric bandwidth reservation, (ii) OS and platform agnosticism, and (iii) reduced overhead. Empirical results evidenced no overhead on non-regulated workloads, and negligible overhead (<1%) for regulated workloads for regulation periods of 2 µs or higher.

Locally Static, Globally Dynamic Session Types for Active Objects

Authors: Reiner Hähnle, Anton W. Haubner, and Eduard Kamburjan

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 86, Recent Developments in the Design and Implementation of Programming Languages (2020)

Abstract
Active object languages offer an attractive trade-off between low-level, preemptive concurrency and fully distributed actors: syntactically identifiable atomic code segments and asynchronous calls are the basis of cooperative concurrency, still permitting interleaving, but nevertheless being mechanically analyzable. The challenge is to reconcile local static analysis of atomic segments with the global scheduling constraints it depends on. Here, we propose an approximate, hybrid approach; At compile-time we perform a local static analysis: later, any run not complying to a global specification is excluded via runtime checks. That specification is expressed in a type-theoretic language inspired by session types. The approach reverses the usual (first global, then local) order of analysis and, thereby, supports analysis of open distributed systems.

MiKO---Mikado Koncurrent Objects

Authors: Francisco Martins, Liliana Salvador, Vasco T. Vasconcelos, and Luís Lopes

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 5081, Foundations of Global Computing (2006)

Abstract
The motivation for the Mikado migration model is to provide programming constructs for controlling code mobility that are as independent as possible from the particular programming language used to program the code. The main idea is to regard a domain (or site, or locality), where mobile code may enter or exit, as a membrane enclosing running processes, and offering services that have to be called for entering or exiting the domain. MiKO---Mikado Koncurrent Objects is a particular instance of this model, where the membrane is explicitly split in two parts: the methods defining the interface, and a process part describing the data for, and the behavior of, the interface. The talk presents the syntax, operational semantics, and type system of MiKO, together with an example. It concludes by briefly mentioning the implementation of a language based on the calculus.
