Characterizing Data Dependence Constraints for Dynamic Reliability Using n-Queens Attack Domains

Authors: Eric W. D. Rozier, Kristin Y. Rozier, and Ulya Bayram

Published in: LITES, Volume 4, Issue 1 (2017). Leibniz Transactions on Embedded Systems, Volume 4, Issue 1

Abstract
As data centers attempt to cope with the exponential growth of data, new techniques for intelligent, software-defined data centers (SDDC) are being developed to confront the scale and pace of changing resources and requirements.  For cost-constrained environments, like those increasingly present in scientific research labs, SDDCs also may provide better reliability and performability with no additional hardware through the use of dynamic syndrome allocation. To do so, the middleware layers of SDDCs must be able to calculate and account for complex dependence relationships to determine an optimal data layout.  This challenge is exacerbated by the growth of constraints on the dependence problem when available resources are both large (due to a higher number of syndromes that can be stored) and small (due to the lack of available space for syndrome allocation). We present a quantitative method for characterizing these challenges using an analysis of attack domains for high-dimension variants of the $n$-queens problem that enables performable solutions via the SMT solver Z3. We demonstrate correctness of our technique, and provide experimental evidence of its efficacy; our implementation is publicly available.

A Survey on Static Cache Analysis for Real-Time Systems

Authors: Mingsong Lv, Nan Guan, Jan Reineke, Reinhard Wilhelm, and Wang Yi

Published in: LITES, Volume 3, Issue 1 (2016). Leibniz Transactions on Embedded Systems, Volume 3, Issue 1

Abstract
Real-time systems are reactive computer systems that must produce their reaction to a stimulus within given time bounds. A vital verification requirement is to estimate the Worst-Case Execution Time (WCET) of programs. These estimates are then used to predict the timing behavior of the overall system. The execution time of a program heavily depends on the underlying hardware, among which cache has the biggest influence. Analyzing cache behavior is very challenging due to the versatile cache features and complex execution environment. This article provides a survey on static cache analysis for real-time systems. We first present the challenges and static analysis techniques for independent programs with respect to different cache features. Then, the discussion is extended to cache analysis in complex execution environment, followed by a survey of existing tools based on static techniques for cache analysis. An outlook for future research is provided at last.

Rack-scale Computing (Dagstuhl Seminar 15421)

Authors: Babak Falsafi, Tim Harris, Dushyanth Narayanan, and David A. Patterson

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 5, Issue 10 (2016)

Abstract
This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 15421 "Rack-scale Computing". The seminar was successful and facilitated interaction between researchers working in a diverse set of fields, including computer architecture, parallel workloads, systems software, and programming language design. In addition to stimulating interaction during the seminar, the event led to a follow-on Workshop on Rack-Scale Computing to be organized during 2016.
