|abstract=Global-scale IPv6 scan, critical for network measurement and management, is still a mission to be accomplished due to its vast address space. To tackle this challenge, IPv6 scan generally leverages pre-defined seed addresses to guide search directions. Under this general principle, however, the core problem of effectively using the seeds is largely open. In this work, we propose a novel IPv6 active search strategy, namely HMap6, which significantly improves the use of seeds, w.r.t. the marginal benefit, for large-scale active address discovery in various prefixes. Using a heuristic search strategy for efficient seed collection and alias prefix detection under a wide range of BGP prefixes, HMap6 can greatly expand the scan coverage. Real-world experiments over the Internet in billion-scale scans show that HMap6 can discover 29.39M unique /80 prefixes with active addresses, an 11.88% improvement over the state-of-the-art methods. Furthermore, the IPv6 hitlists from HMap6 include all-responsive IPv6 addresses with rich information. This result sharply differs from existing public IPv6 hitlists, which contain non-responsive and filtered addresses, and pushes the IPv6 hitlists from quantity to quality. To encourage and benefit further IPv6 measurement studies, we released our tool along with our IPv6 hitlists and the detected alias prefixes.
|abstract = Intermediate reasoning or acting steps have successfully improved large language models (LLMs) for handling various downstream natural language processing (NLP) tasks. When applying LLMs for code generation, recent works mainly focus on directing the models to articulate intermediate natural-language reasoning steps, as in chain-of-thought (CoT) prompting, and then output code with the natural language or other structured intermediate steps. However, such output is not suitable for code translation or generation tasks since the standard CoT has different logical structures and forms of expression with the code. In this work, we introduce the universal code (UniCode) as the intermediate representation. It is a description of algorithm steps using a mix of conventions of programming languages, such as assignment operator, conditional operator, and loop. Hence, we collect an instruction dataset UniCoder-Instruct to train our model UniCoder on multi-task learning objectives. UniCoder-Instruct comprises natural-language questions, code solutions, and the corresponding universal code. The alignment between the intermediate universal code representation and the final code solution significantly improves the quality of the generated code. The experimental results demonstrate that UniCoder with the universal code significantly outperforms the previous prompting methods by a large margin, showcasing the effectiveness of the structural clues in pseudo-code.

|abstract=LoRa networks have been deployed in many orchards for environmental monitoring and crop management. An accurate propagation model is essential for efficiently deploying a LoRa network in orchards, e.g., determining gateway coverage and sensor placement. Although some propagation models have been studied for LoRa networks, they are not suitable for orchard environments, because they do not consider the shadowing effect on wireless propagation caused by the ground and tree canopies. This paper presents FLog, a propagation model for LoRa signals in orchard environments. FLog leverages a unique feature of orchards, i.e., all trees have similar shapes and are planted regularly in space. We develop a 3D model of the orchards. Once we have the location of a sensor and a gateway, we know the mediums that the wireless signal traverse. Based on this knowledge, we generate the First Fresnel Zone (FFZ) between the sender and the receiver. The intrinsic path loss exponents (PLE) of all mediums can be combined into a classic Log-Normal Shadowing model in the FFZ. Extensive experiments in almond orchards show that FLog reduces the link quality estimation error by 42.7% and improves gateway coverage estimation accuracy by 70.3%, compared with a widely-used propagation model.
|abstract =LoRaWANs are envisioned to connect billions of IoT devices through thousands of physically overlapping yet logically orthogonal channels (termed logical channels). These logical channels hold significant potential for enabling highly concurrent scalable IoT connectivity. Large-scale deployments however face strong interference between logical channels. This practical issue has been largely overlooked by existing works but becomes increasingly prominent as LoRaWAN scales up. To address this issue, we introduce Canas, an innovative gateway design that is poised to orthogonalize the logical channels by eliminating mutual interference. To this end, Canas develops a series of novel solutions to accurately extract the meta-information of individual ultra-weak LoRa signals from the received overlapping channels. The meta-information is then leveraged to accurately reconstruct and subtract the LoRa signals over thousands of logical channels iteratively. Real-world evaluations demonstrate that Canas can enhance concurrent transmissions across overlapping logical channels by 2.3× compared to the best known related works.

|abstract=Quality of Experience (QoE) is one of the most important quality indicators for video streaming applications. But it is still an open question how to assess QoE value objectively and quantitatively over continuous time both for academia and industry. In this paper, we carry out an extensive data study on user behaviors in one of the largest short-video service providers. The measurement data reveals that the user’s exiting behavior in viewing video streams is an appropriate choice as a continuous-time QoE metric. Secondly, we build a quantitative QoE model to objectively assess the quality of video playback by discretizing the playback session into the Markov chain. By collecting 7 billion viewing session logs which cover users from 20 CDN providers and 40 Internet service providers, the proposed state-chain-based model of State-Exiting Ratio (SER) is validated. The experimental results show that the modeling error of SER and session duration are less than 2% and 10s respectively. By using the proposed scheme to optimize adaptive video streaming, the average session duration is improved up to 60% to baseline, and 20% to the existing black-box-like machine learning methods.

|abstract=The resource efficiency of video analytics workloads is critical for large-scale deployments on edge nodes and cloud clusters. Recent advanced systems have benefited from techniques including video compression, frame filtering, and deep model acceleration. However, based on our year-long experience of operating a real-time video analytics system on more than 1000 cameras, we identified a previously overlooked bottleneck of end- to-end concurrency: video decoding. To support concurrent video inference at scale, in this work, we investigate a new task, named video packet gating, which selectively filters packets before running a decoder. We propose a
novel multi-view embedding approach for video packets and present PacketGame that has both theoretical performance guarantee and practical system designs. Experiments on both public datasets and a real system show PacketGame saves 52.0-79.3% decoding costs and achieves 2.1-4.8× concurrency compared to original workloads. Comparisons with four state-of-the-art complementary methods show the superiority of PacketGame in end-to-end concurrency.

|abstract =The rapid expansion of large language models (LLMs) requires the development of extensive GPU clusters, with companies deploying clusters with tens to hundreds of thousands of GPUs. This growth significantly expands the design space for LLM training systems, requiring thorough exploration of different parallelization strategies, communication parameters, congestion control, fabric topology, etc. Current methods require up to 10k simulation experiments to identify optimal configurations, with inadequate exploration leading to significant degradation of training performance. In this paper, we tackle the overlooked problem of efficiently conducting parallel simulation experiments for design space exploration. Our
