|abstract = Sparsely-activated Mixture-of-Expert (MoE) layers have found practical applications in enlarging the model size of large-scale foundation models, with only a sub-linear increase in computation demands. Despite the wide adoption of hybrid parallel paradigms like model parallelism, expert parallelism, and expert-sharding parallelism (i.e., MP+EP+ESP) to support MoE model training on GPU clusters, the training efficiency is hindered by communication costs introduced by these parallel paradigms. To address this limitation, we propose Parm, a system that accelerates MP+EP+ESP training by designing two dedicated schedules for placing communication tasks. The proposed schedules eliminate redundant computations and communications and enable overlaps between intra-node and inter-node communications, ultimately reducing the overall training time. As the two schedules are not mutually exclusive, we provide comprehensive theoretical analyses and derive an automatic and accurate solution to determine which schedule should be applied in different scenarios. Experimental results on an 8-GPU server and a 32-GPU cluster demonstrate that Parm outperforms the state-of-the-art MoE training system, DeepSpeed-MoE, achieving 1.13× to 5.77× speedup on 1296 manually configured MoE layers and approximately 3× improvement on two real-world MoE models based on BERT and GPT-2.
|abstract = Packet routing in virtual networks requires virtual-to-physical address translation. The address mappings are updated by a single party, i.e., the network administrator, but they are read by multiple devices across the network when routing tenant packets. Existing approaches face an inherent read-write performance tradeoff: they either store these mappings in dedicated gateways for fast updates at the cost of slower forwarding or replicate them at end-hosts and suffer from slow updates.SwitchV2P aims to escape this tradeoff by leveraging the network switches to transparently cache the address mappings while learning them from the traffic. SwitchV2P brings the mappings closer to the sender, thus reducing the first packet latency and translation overheads, while simultaneously enabling fast mapping updates, all without changing existing routing policies and deployed gateways. The topology-aware data-plane caching protocol allows the switches to transparently adapt to changing network conditions and varying in-switch memory capacity.Our evaluation shows the benefits of in-network address mapping, including an up to 7.8× and 4.3× reduction in FCT and first packet latency respectively, and a substantial reduction in translation gateway load. Additionally, SwitchV2P achieves up to a 1.9× reduction in bandwidth overheads and requires order-of-magnitude fewer gateways for equivalent performance.

|abstract = Visible light communication (VLC) has become an important complementary means to electromagnetic communications due to its freedom from interference. However, existing Internet-of-Things (IoT) VLC links can reach only <10 meters, which has significantly limited the applications of VLC to the vast and diverse scenarios. In this paper, we propose ChirpVLC, a novel modulation method to prolong VLC distance from ≤10 meters to over 100 meters. The basic idea of ChirpVLC is to trade throughput for prolonged distance by exploiting Chirp Spread Spectrum (CSS) modulation. Specifically, 1) we modulate the luminous intensity as a sinusoidal waveform with a linearly varying frequency and design different spreading factors (SF) for different environmental conditions. 2) We design range adaptation scheme for luminance sensing range to help receivers achieve better signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). 3) ChirpVLC supports many-to-one and non-line-of-sight communications, breaking through the limitations of visible light communication. We implement ChirpVLC and conduct extensive real-world experiments. The results show that ChirpVLC can extend the transmission distance of 5W COTS LEDs to over 100 meters, and the distance/energy utility is increased by 532% compared to the existing work.
|abstract = HD map is a key enabling technology towards fully autonomous driving. We propose VI-Map, the first system that leverages roadside infrastructure to enhance real-time HD mapping for autonomous driving. The core concept of VI-Map is to exploit the unique cumulative observations made by roadside infrastructure to build and maintain an accurate and current HD map. This HD map is then fused with on-vehicle HD maps in real time, resulting in a more comprehensive and up-to-date HD map. By extracting concise bird-eye-view features from infrastructure observations and utilizing vectorized map representations, VI-Map incurs low compute and communication overhead. We conducted end-to-end evaluations of VI-Map on a real-world testbed and a simulator. Experiment results show that VI-Map can construct decentimeter-level (up to 0.3 m) HD maps and achieve real-time (up to a delay of 42 ms) map fusion between driving vehicles and roadside infrastructure. This represents a significant improvement of 2.8× and 3× in map accuracy and coverage compared to the state-of-the-art online HD mapping approaches. A video demo of VI-Map on our real-world testbed is available at https://youtu.be/p2RO65R5Ezg.

    Abstract: Packet routing in virtual networks requires virtual-to-physical address translation. The address mappings are updated by a single party, i.e., the network administrator, but they are read by multiple devices across the network when routing tenant packets. Existing approaches face an inherent read-write performance tradeoff: they either store these mappings in dedicated gateways for fast updates at the cost of slower forwarding or replicate them at end-hosts and suffer from slow updates.SwitchV2P aims to escape this tradeoff by leveraging the network switches to transparently cache the address mappings while learning them from the traffic. SwitchV2P brings the mappings closer to the sender, thus reducing the first packet latency and translation overheads, while simultaneously enabling fast mapping updates, all without changing existing routing policies and deployed gateways. The topology-aware data-plane caching protocol allows the switches to transparently adapt to changing network conditions and varying in-switch memory capacity.Our evaluation shows the benefits of in-network address mapping, including an up to 7.8× and 4.3× reduction in FCT and first packet latency respectively, and a substantial reduction in translation gateway load.
