|abstract = Collaborative inference is the current state-of-the-art solution for mobile-server neural network inference offloading. However, we find that existing collaborative inference solutions only focus on partitioning the DNN computation, which is only a small part of achieving an efficient DNN offloading system. What ultimately determines the performance of DNN offloading is how the execution system utilizes the characteristics of the given DNN offloading task on the mobile, network, and server resources of the offloading environment. To this end, we design CoActo, a DNN execution system built from the ground up for mobile-server inference offloading. Our key design philosophy is Coactive Inference Offloading, which is a new, improved concept of DNN offloading that adds two properties, 1) fine-grained expression of DNNs and 2) concurrency of runtime resources, to existing collaborative inference. In CoActo, system components go beyond simple model splitting of existing approaches and operate more proactively to achieve the coactive execution of inference workloads. CoActo dynamically schedules concurrent interleaving of the mobile, server, and network operations to actively increase resource utilization, enabling lower end-to-end latency. We implement CoActo for various mobile devices and server environments and evaluate our system with distinct environment settings and DNN models. The experimental results show that our system achieves up to 2.1 times speed-up compared to the state-of-the-art collaborative inference solutions.
|abstract = LoRa technology promises to enable Internet of Things applications over large geographical areas. However, its performance is often hampered by poor channel quality in urban environments, where blockage and multipath effects are prevalent. Our study uncovers that a slight shift in the position or attitude of the receiving antenna can substantially improve the received signal quality. This phenomenon can be attributed to the rich multipath characteristics of wireless signal propagation in urban environments, wherein even small antenna movement can alter the dominant signal path or reduce the polarization angular difference between transceivers. Leveraging these key observations, we propose and implement MoLoRa, an intelligent mobile antenna system designed to enhance LoRa packet reception. At its core, MoLoRa represents the position and attitude of an antenna as a state and employs a statistical optimization method to search for states that offer optimal signal quality efficiently. Through extensive evaluation, we demonstrate that MoLoRa achieves a maximum Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) gain of 13 dB in a few attempts, enabling formerly problematic blind spots to reconnect and strengthening links for other nodes.

|abstract = Caching is an indispensable technique for low-cost and fast data serving. The eviction algorithm, at the heart of a cache, has been primarily designed to maximize efficiency—reducing the cache miss ratio. Many eviction algorithms have been designed in the past decades. However, they all trade off throughput, simplicity, or both for higher efficiency. Such a compromise often hinders adoption in production systems.
|abstract =Large language models (LLMs) achieve superior performance in generative tasks. However, due to the natural gap between language model generation and structured information extraction in three dimensions: task type, output format, and modeling granularity, they often fall short in structured information extraction, a crucial capability for effective data utilization on the web. In this paper, we define the generation process of the language model as the controllable state transition, aligning the generation and extraction processes to ensure the integrity of the output structure and adapt to the goals of the information extraction task. Furthermore, we propose the Structure2Text decider to help the language model understand the fine-grained extraction information, which converts the structured output into natural language and makes state decisions, thereby focusing on the task-specific information kernels, and alleviating language model hallucinations and incorrect content generation. We conduct extensive experiments and detailed analyses on myriad information extraction tasks, including named entity recognition, relation extraction, and event argument extraction. Our method not only achieves significant performance improvements but also considerably enhances the model's capability to generate precise and relevant content, making the extracted content easy to parse.
This work presents SIEVE, an algorithm that is simpler than LRU and provides better than state-of-the-art efficiency and scalability for web cache workloads. We implemented SIEVE in five production cache libraries, requiring fewer than 20 lines of code changes on average. Our evaluation on 1559 cache traces from 7 sources shows that SIEVE achieves up to 63.2% lower miss ratio than ARC. Moreover, SIEVE has a lower miss ratio than 9 state-of-the-art algorithms on more than 45% of the 1559 traces, while the next best algorithm only has a lower miss ratio on 15%. SIEVE's simplicity comes with superior scalability as cache hits require no locking. Our prototype achieves twice the throughput of an optimized 16-thread LRU implementation. SIEVE is more than an eviction algorithm; it can be used as a cache primitive to build advanced eviction algorithms just like FIFO and LRU.

    Abstract: LoRa technology promises to enable Internet of Things applications over large geographical areas. However, its performance is often hampered by poor channel quality in urban environments, where blockage and multipath effects are prevalent. Our study uncovers that a slight shift in the position or attitude of the receiving antenna can substantially improve the received signal quality. This phenomenon can be attributed to the rich multipath characteristics of wireless signal propagation in urban environments, wherein even small antenna movement can alter the dominant signal path or reduce the polarization angular difference between transceivers. Leveraging these key observations, we propose and implement MoLoRa, an intelligent mobile antenna system designed to enhance LoRa packet reception.

    Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) achieve superior performance in generative tasks. However, due to the natural gap between language model generation and structured information extraction in three dimensions: task type, output format, and modeling granularity, they often fall short in structured information extraction, a crucial capability for effective data utilization on the web. In this paper, we define the generation process of the language model as the controllable state transition, aligning the generation and extraction processes to ensure the integrity of the output structure and adapt to the goals of the information extraction task.
