  1. [Mobicom 2022] BSMA: Scalable LoRa networks using full duplex gateways, Kaiwen
    Abstract: Mobile crowd sensing (MCS) is a popular sensing paradigm that leverages the power of massive mobile workers to perform various location-based sensing tasks. To assign workers with suitable tasks, recent research works investigated mobility prediction methods based on probabilistic and statistical models to estimate the worker’s moving behavior, based on which the allocation algorithm is designed to match workers with tasks such that workers do not need to deviate from their daily routes and tasks can be completed as many as possible. In this paper, we propose a new multi-task allocation method based on mobility prediction, which differs from the existing works by (1) making use of workers’ historical trajectories more comprehensively by using the fuzzy logic system to obtain more accurate mobility prediction and (2) designing a global heuristic searching algorithm to optimize the overall task completion rate based on the mobility prediction result, which jointly considers workers’ and tasks’ spatiotemporal features. We evaluate the proposed prediction method and task allocation algorithm using two real-world datasets. The experimental results validate the effectiveness of the proposed methods compared against baselines.
  2. [MobiSys 2022] Memory-efficient DNN Training on Mobile Devices, Wenjie
    Abstract: On-device deep neural network (DNN) training holds the potential to enable a rich set of privacy-aware and infrastructure-independent personalized mobile applications. However, despite advancements in mobile hardware, locally training a complex DNN is still a nontrivial task given its resource demands. In this work, we show that the limited memory resources on mobile devices are the main constraint and propose Sage as a framework for efficiently optimizing memory resources for on-device DNN training. Specifically, Sage configures a flexible computation graph for DNN gradient evaluation and reduces the memory footprint of the graph using operator- and graph-level optimizations. In run-time, Sage employs a hybrid of gradient checkpointing and micro-batching techniques to dynamically adjust its memory use to the available system memory budget. Using implementation on off-the-shelf smartphones, we show that Sage enables local training of complex DNN models by reducing memory use by more than 20-fold compared to a baseline approach. We also show that Sage successfully adapts to run-time memory budget variations, and evaluate its energy consumption to show Sage's practical applicability.
  3. [SigMetrics 2022] WiseFuse: Workload Characterization and DAG Transformation for Serverless Workflows, Qinyong
    Abstract: We characterize production workloads of serverless DAGs at a major cloud provider. Our analysis highlights two major factors that limit performance: (a) lack of efficient communication methods between the serverless functions in the DAG, and (b) stragglers when a DAG stage invokes a set of parallel functions that must complete before starting the next DAG stage. To address these limitations, we propose WISEFUSE, an automated approach to generate an optimized execution plan for serverless DAGs for a user-specified latency objective or budget. We introduce three optimizations: (1) Fusion combines in-series functions together in a single VM to reduce the communication overhead between cascaded functions. (2) Bundling executes a group of parallel invocations of a function in one VM to improve resource sharing among the parallel workers to reduce skew. (3) Resource Allocation assigns the right VM size to each function or function bundle in the DAG to reduce the E2E latency and cost. We implement WISEFUSE to evaluate it experimentally using three popular serverless applications with different DAG structures, memory footprints, and intermediate data sizes. Compared to competing approaches and other alternatives, WISEFUSE shows significant improvements in E2E latency and cost. Specifically, for a machine learning pipeline, WISEFUSE achieves P95 latency that is 67% lower than Photons, 39% lower than Faastlane, and 90% lower than SONIC without increasing the cost.
