|abstract = As intelligence is moving from data centers to the edges, intelligent edge devices such as smartphones, drones, robots, and smart IoT devices are equipped with the capability to altogether train a deep learning model on the devices from the data collected by themselves. Despite its considerable value, the key bottleneck of making on-device distributed training practically useful in realworld deployments is that they consume a significant amount of training time under wireless networks with constrained bandwidth. To tackle this critical bottleneck, we present Mercury, an importance sampling-based framework that enhances the training efficiency of on-device distributed training without compromising the accuracies of the trained models. The key idea behind the design of Mercury is to focus on samples that provide more important information in each training iteration. In doing this, the training efficiency of each iteration is improved. As such, the total number of iterations can be considerably reduced so as to speed up the overall training process. We implemented Mercury and deployed it on a self-developed testbed. We demonstrate its effectiveness and show that Mercury consistently outperforms two status quo frameworks on six commonly used datasets across tasks in image classification, speech recognition, and natural language processing.  
|abstract=LoRa has emerged as one of the promising long-range and low-power wireless communication technologies for Internet of Things (IoT). With the massive deployment of LoRa networks, the ability to perform Firmware Update Over-The-Air (FUOTA) is becoming a necessity for unattended LoRa devices. LoRa Alliance has recently dedicated the specification for FUOTA, but the existing solution has several drawbacks, such as low energy efficiency, poor transmission reliability, and biased multicast grouping. In this paper, we propose a novel energy-efficient, reliable, and beamforming-assisted FUOTA system for LoRa networks named FLoRa, which is featured with several techniques, including delta scripting, channel coding, and beamforming. In particular, we first propose a novel joint differencing and compression algorithm to generate the delta script for processing gain, which unlocks the potential of incremental FUOTA in LoRa networks. Afterward, we design a concatenated channel coding scheme to enable reliable transmission against dynamic link quality. The proposed scheme uses a rateless code as outer code and an error detection code as inner code to achieve coding gain. Finally, we design a beamforming strategy to avoid biased multicast and compromised throughput for power gain. Experimental results on a 20-node testbed demonstrate that FLoRa improves network transmission reliability by up to 1.51 × and energy efficiency by up to 2.65 × compared with the existing solution in LoRaWAN.

|abstract = Many datacenters and clouds manage storage systems separately from computing services for better manageability and resource utilization. These existing disaggregated storage systems use hard disks or SSDs as storage media. Recently, the technology of persistent memory (PM) has matured and seen initial adoption in several datacenters. Disaggregating PM could enjoy the same benefits of traditional disaggregated storage systems, but it requires new designs because of its memory-like performance and byte addressability. In this paper, we explore the design of disaggregating PM and managing them remotely from compute servers, a model we call passive disaggregated persistent memory, or pDPM. Compared to the alternative of managing PM at storage servers, pDPM significantly lowers monetary and energy costs and avoids scalability bottlenecks at storage servers. We built three key-value store systems using the pDPM model. The first one lets all compute nodes directly access and manage storage nodes. The second uses a central coordinator to orchestrate the communication between compute and storage nodes. These two systems have various performance and scalability limitations. To solve these problems, we built Clover, a pDPM system that separates the location, communication mechanism, and management strategy of the data plane and the metadata/control plane. Compute nodes access storage nodes directly for data operations, while one or few global metadata servers handle all metadata/control operations. From our extensive evaluation of the three pDPM systems, we found Clover to be the best-performing pDPM system. Its performance under common datacenter workloads is similar to non-pDPM remote in-memory key-value store, while reducing CapEx and OpEx by 1.4× and 3.9×.
|abstract=As a promising infrastructure, edge storage systems have drawn many attempts to efficiently distribute and share data among edge servers. However, it remains open to meeting the increasing demand for similarity retrieval across servers. The intrinsic reason is that the existing solutions can only return an exact data match for a query while more general edge applications require the data similar to a query input from any server. To fill this gap, this paper pioneers a new paradigm to support high-dimensional similarity search at network edges. Specifically, we propose Prophet, the first known architecture for similarity data indexing. We first divide the feature space of data into plenty of subareas, then project both subareas and edge servers into a virtual plane where the distances between any two points can reflect not only data similarity but also network latency. When any edge server submits a request for data insert, delete, or query, it computes the data feature and the virtual coordinates; then iteratively forwards the request through greedy routing based on the forwarding tables and the virtual coordinates. By Prophet, similar high-dimensional features would be stored by a common server or several nearby servers. Compared with distributed hash tables in P2P networks, Prophet requires logarithmic servers to access for a data request and reduces the network latency from the logarithmic to the constant level of the server number. Experimental results indicate that Prophet achieves comparable retrieval accuracy and shortens the query latency by 55%~70% compared with centralized schemes.
