Mir: Automated Quantifiable Privilege Reduction Against Dynamic Library Compromise in JavaScript
Nikos Vasilakis, Cristian-Alexandru Staicu, Grigoris Ntousakis +4
Third-party libraries ease the development of large-scale software systems. However, they often execute with significantly more privilege than needed to complete their task. This a…
Automatic Synthesis of Parallel Unix Commands and Pipelines with KumQuat
Jiasi Shen, Martin Rinard, Nikos Vasilakis
We present KumQuat, a system for automatically generating data parallel implementations of Unix shell commands and pipelines. The generated parallel versions split input streams, e…
An Order-Aware Dataflow Model for Parallel Unix Pipelines
Shivam Handa, Konstantinos Kallas, Nikos Vasilakis +1
We present a dataflow model for modelling parallel Unix shell pipelines. To accurately capture the semantics of complex Unix pipelines, the dataflow model is order-aware, i.e., the…
PaSh: Light-touch Data-Parallel Shell Processing
Nikos Vasilakis, Konstantinos Kallas, Konstantinos Mamouras +2
This paper presents {\scshape PaSh}, a system for parallelizing POSIX shell scripts. Given a script, {\scshape PaSh} converts it to a dataflow graph, performs a series of semantics…
