Argos: Verifiable FHE Using Commodity Hardware
… encryption (FHE) schemes using trusted hardware. Traditional approaches to verifiable FHE require expensive cryptographic proofs, which incur an overhead of up to seven orders of magnitude on top of FHE, making them impractical. With Argos, we show that trusted hardware can be securely …

Achieving real-time video summarization on commodity hardware
… which is able to operate in real-time on commodity hardware. This is achieved by performing segmentation to divide a video into a series of small video clips, which are further reduced or eliminated with the assistance of highly efficient low-level features. A numerical score is then …

A measurement study of 802.11n links on commodity hardware
802.11n is one of the recently ratified drafts for wireless networks. We modify an open-source wireless card device driver and conduct a performance analysis study. We find by measurements that the currently implemented algorithm in the open source device driver fails to successfully converge to …

Designing Practical Software Bug Detectors Using Commodity Hardware and Common Programming Patterns
… With those in mind, we propose to: 1) leverage commodity hardware to reduce run-time overhead, 2) reuse metadata maintained by one bug detector to detect other types of bugs, reducing space overhead, and 3) apply programming idioms to static analyses, improving scalability and precision. We …

Airblue : a highly-configurable FPGA-based platform for wireless network research
… two to three orders of magnitude slower than commodity hardware. FPGA-based platforms provide much better speeds but are quite difficult to modify because of the way high-speed designs are typically implemented by trading modularity for performance. Experimenting with cross-layer protocols …

A container-based lightweight fault tolerance framework for high performance computing workloads
… Performance Computing (HPC) systems are based on commodity hardware clusters, which are typically designed for performance rather than reliability. The Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) for some current petascale systems has been reported to be several days, while studies estimate it may be less …

Load-balanced rendering on a general-purpose tiled architecture
Commodity graphics hardware has become increasingly programmable over the last few years, but has been limited to a fixed resource allocation. These architectures handle some workloads well, others poorly; load-balancing to maximize graphics hardware performance has become a critical issue. I have …

Redefining the hardware-software boundary in networked systems
While the traditional division between hardware and software development provides a useful layer of abstraction that allows developers to create complex software applications with limited knowledge of the underlying hardware, it has led to an inflexible boundary between the division of labor in …
