|abstract=In Video Analytics Pipelines (VAP), Analytics Units (AUs) such as object detection and face recognition running on remote servers critically rely on surveillance cameras to capture high-quality video streams in order to achieve high accuracy. Modern IP cameras come with a large number of camera parameters that directly affect the quality of the video stream capture. While a few of such parameters, e.g., exposure, focus, white balance are automatically adjusted by the camera internally, the remaining ones are not. We denote such camera parameters as non-automated (NAUTO) parameters. In this paper, we first show that environmental condition changes can have significant adverse effect on the accuracy of insights from the AUs, but such adverse impact can potentially be mitigated by dynamically adjusting NAUTO camera parameters in response to changes in environmental conditions. We then present CamTuner, to our knowledge, the first framework that dynamically adapts NAUTO camera parameters to optimize the accuracy of AUs in a VAP in response to adverse changes in environmental conditions. CamTuner is based on SARSA reinforcement learning and it incorporates two novel components: a light-weight analytics quality estimator and a virtual camera that drastically speed up offline RL training. Our controlled experiments and real-world VAP deployment show that compared to a VAP using the default camera setting, CamTuner enhances VAP accuracy by detecting 15.9% additional persons and 2.6%--4.2% additional cars (without any false positives) in a large enterprise parking lot and 9.7% additional cars in a 5G smart traffic intersection scenario, which enables a new usecase of accurate and reliable automatic vehicle collision prediction (AVCP). CamTuner opens doors for new ways to significantly enhance video analytics accuracy beyond incremental improvements from refining deep-learning models.
|abstract=Packet loss due to link corruption is a major problem in large warehouse-scale datacenters. The current state-of-the-art approach of disabling corrupting links is not adequate because, in practice, all the corrupting links cannot be disabled due to capacity constraints. In this paper, we show that, it is feasible to implement link-local retransmission at sub-RTT timescales to completely mask corruption packet losses from the transport endpoints. Our system, LinkGuardian, employs a range of techniques to (i) keep the packet buffer requirement low, (ii) recover from tail packet losses without employing timeouts, and (iii) preserve packet ordering. We implement LinkGuardian on the Intel Tofino switch and show that for a 100G link with a loss rate of 10−3, LinkGuardian can reduce the loss rate by up to 6 orders of magnitude while incurring only 8% reduction in effective link speed. By eliminating tail packet losses, LinkGuardian improves the 99.9th percentile flow completion time (FCT) for TCP and RDMA by 51x and 66x respectively. Finally, we also show that in the context of datacenter networks, simple out-of-order retransmission is often sufficient to significantly mitigate the impact of corruption packet loss for short TCP flows.

|abstract = To perform advanced surveillance, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) require the execution of edge-assisted computer vision (CV) tasks. In multi-hop UAV networks, the successful transmission of these tasks to the edge is severely challenged due to severe bandwidth constraints. For this reason, we propose a novel A2-UAV framework to optimize the number of correctly executed tasks at the edge. In stark contrast with existing art, we take an application-aware approach and formulate a novel pplication-Aware Task Planning Problem (A2-TPP) that takes into account (i) the relationship between deep neural network (DNN) accuracy and image compression for the classes of interest based on the available dataset, (ii) the target positions, (iii) the current energy/position of the UAVs to optimize routing, data pre-processing and target assignment for each UAV. We demonstrate A2-TPP is NP-Hard and propose a polynomial-time algorithm to solve it efficiently. We extensively evaluate A2-UAV through real-world experiments with a testbed composed by four DJI Mavic Air 2 UAVs. We consider state-of-the-art image classification tasks with four different DNN models (i.e., DenseNet, ResNet152, ResNet50 and MobileNet-V2) and object detection tasks using YoloV4 trained on the ImageNet dataset. Results show that A2-UAV attains on average around 38% more accomplished tasks than the state-of-the-art, with 400% more accomplished tasks when the number of targets increases significantly. To allow full reproducibility, we pledge to share datasets and code with the research community.
|abstract=Disaggregated memory systems separate monolithic servers into different components, including compute and memory nodes, to enjoy the benefits of high resource utilization, flexible hardware scalability, and efficient data sharing. By exploiting the high-performance RDMA (Remote Direct Memory Access), the compute nodes directly access the remote memory pool without involving remote CPUs. Hence, the ordered key-value (KV) stores (e.g., B-trees and learned indexes) keep all data sorted to provide rang query service via the high-performance network. However, existing ordered KVs fail to work well on the disaggregated memory systems, due to either consuming multiple network roundtrips to search the remote data or heavily relying on the memory nodes equipped with insufficient computing resources to process data modifications. In this paper, we propose a scalable RDMA-oriented KV store with learned indexes, called ROLEX, to coalesce the ordered KV store in the disaggregated systems for efficient data storage and retrieval. ROLEX leverages a retraining-decoupled learned index scheme to dissociate the model retraining from data modification operations via adding a bias and some data-movement constraints to learned models. Based on the operation decoupling, data modifications are directly executed in compute nodes via one-sided RDMA verbs with high scalability. The model retraining is hence removed from the critical path of data modification and asynchronously executed in memory nodes by using dedicated computing resources. Our experimental results on YCSB and real-world workloads demonstrate that ROLEX achieves competitive performance on the static workloads, as well as significantly improving the performance on dynamic workloads by up to 2.2 times than state-of-the-art schemes on the disaggregated memory systems. We have released the open-source codes for public use in GitHub.

    Abstract: Packet loss due to link corruption is a major problem in large warehouse-scale datacenters. The current state-of-the-art approach of disabling corrupting links is not adequate because, in practice, all the corrupting links cannot be disabled due to capacity constraints. In this paper, we show that, it is feasible to implement link-local retransmission at sub-RTT timescales to completely mask corruption packet losses from the transport endpoints. Our system, LinkGuardian, employs a range of techniques to (i) keep the packet buffer requirement low, (ii) recover from tail packet losses without employing timeouts, and (iii) preserve packet ordering. We implement LinkGuardian on the Intel Tofino switch and show that for a 100G link with a loss rate of 10−3, LinkGuardian can reduce the loss rate by up to 6 orders of magnitude while incurring only 8% reduction in effective link speed. By eliminating tail packet losses, LinkGuardian improves the 99.9th percentile flow completion time (FCT) for TCP and RDMA by 51x and 66x respectively. Finally, we also show that in the context of datacenter networks, simple out-of-order retransmission is often sufficient to significantly mitigate the impact of corruption packet loss for short TCP flows.
  2. [NSDI '23] ROLEX: A Scalable RDMA-oriented Learned Key-Value Store for Disaggregated Memory Systems, Haotian
    Abstract: Disaggregated memory systems separate monolithic servers into different components, including compute and memory nodes, to enjoy the benefits of high resource utilization, flexible hardware scalability, and efficient data sharing. By exploiting the high-performance RDMA (Remote Direct Memory Access), the compute nodes directly access the remote memory pool without involving remote CPUs. Hence, the ordered key-value (KV) stores (e.g., B-trees and learned indexes) keep all data sorted to provide rang query service via the high-performance network. However, existing ordered KVs fail to work well on the disaggregated memory systems, due to either consuming multiple network roundtrips to search the remote data or heavily relying on the memory nodes equipped with insufficient computing resources to process data modifications. In this paper, we propose a scalable RDMA-oriented KV store with learned indexes, called ROLEX, to coalesce the ordered KV store in the disaggregated systems for efficient data storage and retrieval.
