  1. [Sensys'24] FDLoRa: Tackling Downlink-Uplink Asymmetry with Full-duplex LoRa Gateways, Kai Chen
    Abstract: Unlike traditional data collection applications (e.g., environment monitoring) that are dominated by uplink transmissions, the newly emerging applications (e.g., device actuation, firmware update, packet reception acknowledgement) also pose ever-increasing demands on downlink transmission capabilities. However, current LoRaWAN falls short in supporting such applications primarily due to downlink-uplink asymmetry. While the uplink can concurrently receive multiple packets, downlink transmission is limited to a single logical channel at a time, which fundamentally hinders the deployment of downlink-hungry applications. To tackle this practical challenge, FDLoRa develops the first-of-its-kind in-band full-duplex LoRa gateway design with novel solutions to mitigate the impact of self-interference (i.e., strong downlink interference to ultra-weak uplink reception), which unleashes the full spectrum for in-band downlink transmissions without compromising the reception of weak uplink packets. Built upon the full-duplex gateways, FDLoRa introduces a new downlink framework to support concurrent downlink transmissions over multiple logical channels of available gateways. Evaluation results demonstrate that FDLoRa boosts downlink capacity by 5.7x compared to LoRaWAN on a three-gateway testbed and achieves 2.58x higher downlink concurrency per gateway than the state-of-the-art.
  2. [NSDI'25 (short paper)] ONCache: A Cache-Based Low-Overhead Container Overlay Network, Daobing Zeng
    Abstract: Recent years have witnessed a widespread adoption of containers. While containers simplify and accelerate application development, existing container network technologies either incur significant overhead, which hurts performance for distributed applications, or lose flexibility or compatibility, which hinders the widespread deployment in production. We carefully analyze the kernel data path of an overlay network, quantifying the time consumed by each segment of the data path and identifying the extra overhead in an overlay network compared to bare metal. We observe that this extra overhead generates repetitive results among packets, which inspires us to introduce caches within an overlay network. We design and implement ONCache (Overlay Network Cache), a cache-based container overlay network, to eliminate the extra overhead while maintaining flexibility and compatibility. We implement ONCache using the extended Berkeley Packet Filter (eBPF) with only 524 lines of code, and integrate it as a plugin of Antrea. With ONCache, containers attain networking performance akin to that of bare metal. Compared to the standard overlay networks, ONCache improves throughput and request-response transaction rate by 12% and 36% for TCP (20% and 34% for UDP), respectively, while significantly reducing per-packet CPU overhead. Popular distributed applications also benefit from ONCache.

History

|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
