Cross Module Quickening - The Curious Case of C Extensions

Authors: Felix Berlakovich and Stefan Brunthaler

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 313, 38th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2024)

Abstract
Dynamic programming languages such as Python offer expressive power and programmer productivity at the expense of performance. Although the topic of optimizing Python has received considerable attention over the years, a key obstacle remains elusive: C extensions. Time and again, optimized run-time environments, such as JIT compilers and optimizing interpreters, fall short of optimizing across C extensions, as they cannot reason about the native code hiding underneath. To bridge this gap, we present an analysis of C extensions for Python. The analysis data indicates that C extensions come in different varieties. One such variety is to merely speed up a single thing, such as reading a file and processing it directly in C. Another variety offers broad access through an API, resulting in a domain-specific language realized by function calls. While the former variety of C extensions offer little optimization potential for optimizing run-times, we find that the latter variety does offer considerable optimization potential. This optimization potential rests on dynamic locality that C extensions cannot readily tap. We introduce a new, interpreter-based optimization leveraging this untapped optimization potential called Cross-Module Quickening. The key idea is that C extensions can use an optimization interface to register highly-optimized operations on C extension-specific datatypes. A quickening interpreter uses these information to continuously specialize programs with C extensions. To quantify the attainable performance potential of going beyond C extensions, we demonstrate a concrete instantiation of Cross-Module Quickening for the CPython interpreter and the popular NumPy C extension. We evaluate our implementation with the NPBench benchmark suite and report performance improvements by a factor of up to 2.84.

Spatial Nudging: Converging Persuasive Technologies, Spatial Design, and Behavioral Theories

Authors: Ayda Grisiute and Martin Raubal

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 315, 16th International Conference on Spatial Information Theory (COSIT 2024)

Abstract
This paper presents the Spatial Nudging framework - a theory-based framework that maps out nudging strategies in the mobility domain and refines its existing definitions. We link these strategies by highlighting the role of perceived affordances across physical and digital interventions based on the Nudge Theory and the Theory of Affordances. Furthermore, we propose to use graph representation techniques as a supportive methodology to better align perceived and actual environments, thereby enhancing the intervention strategies' effectiveness. We illustrate the applicability of the Spatial Nudging framework and the supportive methodology in the context of an E-bike City vision. This paper lays the foundation for future research on theoretically integrating physical and digital interventions to promote sustainable mobility.

Formal Verification of the Empty Hexagon Number

Authors: Bernardo Subercaseaux, Wojciech Nawrocki, James Gallicchio, Cayden Codel, Mario Carneiro, and Marijn J. H. Heule

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 309, 15th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2024)

Abstract
A recent breakthrough in computer-assisted mathematics showed that every set of 30 points in the plane in general position (i.e., no three points on a common line) contains an empty convex hexagon. Heule and Scheucher solved this problem with a combination of geometric insights and automated reasoning techniques by constructing CNF formulas ϕ_n, with O(n⁴) clauses, such that if ϕ_n is unsatisfiable then every set of n points in general position must contain an empty convex hexagon. An unsatisfiability proof for n = 30 was then found with a SAT solver using 17 300 CPU hours of parallel computation. In this paper, we formalize and verify this result in the Lean theorem prover. Our formalization covers ideas in discrete computational geometry and SAT encoding techniques by introducing a framework that connects geometric objects to propositional assignments. We see this as a key step towards the formal verification of other SAT-based results in geometry, since the abstractions we use have been successfully applied to similar problems. Overall, we hope that our work sets a new standard for the verification of geometry problems relying on extensive computation, and that it increases the trust the mathematical community places in computer-assisted proofs.

AlfaPang: Alignment Free Algorithm for Pangenome Graph Construction

Authors: Adam Cicherski, Anna Lisiecka, and Norbert Dojer

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 312, 24th International Workshop on Algorithms in Bioinformatics (WABI 2024)

Abstract
The success of pangenome-based approaches to genomics analysis depends largely on the existence of efficient methods for constructing pangenome graphs that are applicable to large genome collections. In the current paper we present AlfaPang, a new pangenome graph building algorithm. AlfaPang is based on a novel alignment-free approach that allows to construct pangenome graphs using significantly less computational resources than state-of-the-art tools. The code of AlfaPang is freely available at https://github.com/AdamCicherski/AlfaPang.

T-Rex: Termination of Recursive Functions Using Lexicographic Linear Combinations

Authors: Raphael Douglas Giles, Vincent Jackson, and Christine Rizkallah

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 297, 51st International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2024)

Abstract
We introduce a powerful termination algorithm for structurally recursive functions that improves on the core ideas behind lexicographic termination algorithms for functional programs. The algorithm generates linear-lexicographic combinations of primitive measure functions measuring the recursive structure of terms. We introduce a measure language that enables the simplification and comparison of measures and we prove meta-theoretic properties of our measure language. Moreover, we demonstrate our algorithm, on an untyped first-order functional language and prove its soundness and that it runs in polynomial time. We also provide a Haskell implementation. As part of this work, we also show how to solve the maximisation of negative vector-components as a linear program.

Fast Succinct Retrieval and Approximate Membership Using Ribbon

Authors: Peter C. Dillinger, Lorenz Hübschle-Schneider, Peter Sanders, and Stefan Walzer

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 233, 20th International Symposium on Experimental Algorithms (SEA 2022)

Abstract
A retrieval data structure for a static function f: S → {0,1}^r supports queries that return f(x) for any x ∈ S. Retrieval data structures can be used to implement a static approximate membership query data structure (AMQ), i.e., a Bloom filter alternative, with false positive rate 2^{-r}. The information-theoretic lower bound for both tasks is r|S| bits. While succinct theoretical constructions using (1+o(1))r|S| bits were known, these could not achieve very small overheads in practice because they have an unfavorable space-time tradeoff hidden in the asymptotic costs or because small overheads would only be reached for physically impossible input sizes. With bumped ribbon retrieval (BuRR), we present the first practical succinct retrieval data structure. In an extensive experimental evaluation BuRR achieves space overheads well below 1% while being faster than most previously used retrieval data structures (typically with space overheads at least an order of magnitude larger) and faster than classical Bloom filters (with space overhead ≥ 44%). This efficiency, including favorable constants, stems from a combination of simplicity, word parallelism, and high locality. We additionally describe homogeneous ribbon filter AMQs, which are even simpler and faster at the price of slightly larger space overhead.

On Greedily Packing Anchored Rectangles

Authors: Christoph Damerius, Dominik Kaaser, Peter Kling, and Florian Schneider

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 198, 48th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2021)

Abstract
Consider a set P of points in the unit square U = [1,0), one of them being the origin. For each point p ∈ P you may draw an axis-aligned rectangle in U with its lower-left corner being p. What is the maximum area such rectangles can cover without overlapping each other? Freedman posed this problem in 1969, asking whether one can always cover at least 50% of U. Over 40 years later, Dumitrescu and Tóth [Adrian Dumitrescu and Csaba D. Tóth, 2015] achieved the first constant coverage of 9.1%; since then, no significant progress was made. While 9.1% might seem low, the authors could not find any instance where their algorithm covers less than 50%, nourishing the hope to eventually prove a 50% bound. While we indeed significantly raise the algorithm’s coverage to 39%, we extinguish the hope of reaching 50% by giving points for which its coverage stays below 43.3%. Our analysis studies the algorithm’s average and worst-case density of so-called tiles, which represent the staircase polygons in which a point can freely choose its maximum-area rectangle. Our approach is comparatively general and may potentially help in analyzing related algorithms.

Parallel Weighted Random Sampling

Authors: Lorenz Hübschle-Schneider and Peter Sanders

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 144, 27th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2019)

Abstract
Data structures for efficient sampling from a set of weighted items are an important building block of many applications. However, few parallel solutions are known. We close many of these gaps both for shared-memory and distributed-memory machines. We give efficient, fast, and practicable algorithms for sampling single items, k items with/without replacement, permutations, subsets, and reservoirs. We also give improved sequential algorithms for alias table construction and for sampling with replacement. Experiments on shared-memory parallel machines with up to 158 threads show near linear speedups both for construction and queries.

Inductive Theorem Proving meets Dependency Pairs

Authors: Stephan Swiderski, Michael Parting, Jürgen Giesl, Carsten Fuhs, and Peter Schneider-Kamp

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 9411, Interaction versus Automation: The two Faces of Deduction (2010)

Abstract
Current techniques and tools for automated termination analysis of term rewrite systems (TRSs) are already very powerful. However, they fail for algorithms whose termination is essentially due to an inductive argument. Therefore, we show how to couple the dependency pair method for TRS termination with inductive theorem proving. As confirmed by the implementation of our new approach in the tool AProVE, now TRS termination techniques are also successful on this important class of algorithms.

Termination of Integer Term Rewriting

Authors: Carsten Fuhs, Jürgen Giesl, Martin Plücker, Peter Schneider-Kamp, and Stephan Falke

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 9411, Interaction versus Automation: The two Faces of Deduction (2010)

Abstract
Recently, techniques and tools from term rewriting have been successfully applied to prove termination automatically for different programming languages. The advantage of rewrite techniques is that they are very powerful for algorithms on user-defined data structures. But in contrast to techniques for termination analysis of imperative programs, the drawback of rewrite techniques is that they do not support data structures like integer numbers which are pre-defined in almost all programming languages. To solve this problem, we extend term rewriting by built-in integers and adapt the dependency pair framework to prove termination of integer term rewriting automatically. Our experiments show that this indeed combines the power of rewrite techniques on user-defined data types with a powerful treatment of pre-defined integers.

Decision Procedures for Loop Detection

Authors: René Thiemann, Jürgen Giesl, and Peter Schneider-Kamp

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 7401, Deduction and Decision Procedures (2007)

Abstract
The dependency pair technique is a powerful modular method for automated termination proofs of term rewrite systems. We first show that dependency pairs are also suitable for disproving termination: loops can be detected more easily. In a second step we analyze how to disprove innermost termination. Here, we present a novel procedure to decide whether a given loop is an innermost loop. All results have been implemented in the termination prover AProVE.

Implementing RPO and POLO using SAT

Abstract
Well-founded orderings are the most basic, but also most important ingredient to virtually all termination analyses. The recursive path order with status (RPO) and polynomial interpretations (POLO) are the two classes that are the most popular in the termination analysis of term rewrite systems. Numerous fully automated search algorithms for these classes have therefore been devised and implemented in termination tools. Unfortunately, the performance of these algorithms on all but the smallest termination problems has been lacking. E.g., recently developed transformations from programming languages like Haskell or Prolog allow to apply termination tools for term rewrite systems to real programming languages. The results of the transformations are often of non-trivial size, though, and cannot be handled efficiently by the existing algorithms. The need for more efficient search algorithms has triggered research in reducing these search problems into decision problems for which more efficient algorithms already exist. Here, we introduce an encoding of RPO and POLO to the satisfiability of propositional logic (SAT). We implemented these encodings in our termination tool AProVE. Extensive experiments have shown that one can obtain speedups in orders of magnitude by this encoding and the application of modern SAT solvers. The talk is based on joint work with Elena Annov, Mike Codish, Carsten Fuhs, Jürgen Giesl, Aart Middeldorp, René Thiemann, and Harald Zankl.

Termination of Programs using Term Rewriting and SAT Solving

Authors: Jürgen Giesl, Peter Schneider-Kamp, René Thiemann, Stephan Swiderski, Manh Thang Nguyen, Daniel De Schreye, and Alexander Serebrenik

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 7401, Deduction and Decision Procedures (2007)

Abstract
There are many powerful techniques for automated termination analysis of term rewrite systems (TRSs). However, up to now they have hardly been used for real programming languages. In this talk, we describe recent results which permit the application of existing techniques from term rewriting in order to prove termination of programs. We discuss two possible approaches: 1. One could translate programs into TRSs and then use existing tools to verify termination of the resulting TRSs. 2. One could adapt TRS-techniques to the respective programming languages in order to analyze programs directly. We present such approaches for the functional language Haskell and the logic language Prolog. Our results have been implemented in the termination provers AProVE and Polytool. In order to handle termination problems resulting from real programs, these provers had to be coupled with modern SAT solvers, since the automation of the TRS-termination techniques had to improve significantly. Our resulting termination analyzers are currently the most powerful ones for Haskell and Prolog.

Proving and Disproving Termination in the Dependency Pair Framework

Authors: Jürgen Giesl, René Thiemann, and Peter Schneider-Kamp

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 5431, Deduction and Applications (2006)

Abstract
The dependency pair framework is a new general concept to integrate arbitrary techniques for termination analysis of term rewriting. In this way, the benefits of different techniques can be combined and their modularity and power are increased significantly. Moreover, this framework facilitates the development of new methods for termination analysis. Traditionally, the research on termination focused on methods which prove termination and there were hardly any approaches for disproving termination. We show that with the dependency pair framework, one can combine the search for a proof and for a disproof of termination. In this way, we obtain the first powerful method which can also verify non-termination of term rewrite systems. We implemented and evaluated our contributions in the automated termination prover AProVE. Due to these results, AProVE was the winning tool in the International Competition of Termination Provers 2005, both for proving and for disproving termination of term rewriting.
