Swayam: distributed autoscaling to meet SLAs of machine learning inference services with resource efficiency
Middleware '17: Proceedings of the 18th ACM/IFIP/USENIX Middleware ConferencePages 109–120https://doi.org/10.1145/3135974.3135993Developers use Machine Learning (ML) platforms to train ML models and then deploy these ML models as web services for inference (prediction). A key challenge for platform providers is to guarantee response-time Service Level Agreements (SLAs) for ...

POLM2: automatic profiling for object lifetime-aware memory management for hotspot big data applications
Middleware '17: Proceedings of the 18th ACM/IFIP/USENIX Middleware ConferencePages 147–160https://doi.org/10.1145/3135974.3135986Big Data applications suffer from unpredictable and unacceptably high pause times due to bad memory management (Garbage Collection, GC) decisions. This is a problem for all applications but it is even more important for applications with low pause time ...

Scheduler activations for interference-resilient SMP virtual machine scheduling
Middleware '17: Proceedings of the 18th ACM/IFIP/USENIX Middleware ConferencePages 222–234https://doi.org/10.1145/3135974.3135975The wide adoption of SMP virtual machines (VMs) and resource consolidation present challenges to efficiently executing multi-threaded programs in the cloud. An important problem is the semantic gaps between the guest OS and the hypervisor. The well-...
