Prediction-Guided Control in Data Center Networks
Kevin Zhao, Chenning Li, Anton A. Zabreyko +7
In this paper, we design, implement, and evaluate Polyphony, a system to give network operators a new way to control and reduce the frequency of poor tail latency events in multi-c…
Glia: A Human-Inspired AI for Automated Systems Design and Optimization
Pouya Hamadanian, Pantea Karimi, Arash Nasr-Esfahany +5
Can AI autonomously design mechanisms for computer systems on par with the creativity and reasoning of human experts? We present Glia, an AI architecture for networked systems desi…
Concorde: Fast and Accurate CPU Performance Modeling with Compositional Analytical-ML Fusion
Arash Nasr-Esfahany, Mohammad Alizadeh, Victor Lee +9
Cycle-level simulators such as gem5 are widely used in microarchitecture design, but they are prohibitively slow for large-scale design space explorations. We present Concorde, a n…
m4: A Learned Flow-level Network Simulator
Chenning Li, Anton A. Zabreyko, Arash Nasr-Esfahany +4
Flow-level simulation is widely used to model large-scale data center networks due to its scalability. Unlike packet-level simulators that model individual packets, flow-level simu…
Direct Alignment with Heterogeneous Preferences
Ali Shirali, Arash Nasr-Esfahany, Abdullah Alomar +3
Alignment with human preferences is commonly framed using a universal reward function, even though human preferences are inherently heterogeneous. We formalize this heterogeneity b…
Real-Time Video Inference on Edge Devices via Adaptive Model Streaming
Mehrdad Khani, Pouya Hamadanian, Arash Nasr-Esfahany +1
Real-time video inference on edge devices like mobile phones and drones is challenging due to the high computation cost of Deep Neural Networks. We present Adaptive Model Streaming…
