	abstract = {Business Rule Management Systems (BRMSs) are widely used in industry for a variety of tasks. Their main advantage is to codify in a succinct and queryable manner vast amounts of constantly evolving logic. In BRMSs, rules are typically captured as facts (tuples) over a collection of criteria, and checking them involves querying the collection of rules to find the best match. In this paper, we focus on a real-world use case from the airline industry: determining the minimum connection time (MCT) between flights. The MCT module is part of the flight search engine, and captures the ever changing constraints at each airport that determine the time to allocate between an arriving and a departing flight for a connection to be feasible. We explore how to use hardware acceleration to (i) improve the performance of the MCT module (lower latency, higher throughput); and (ii) reduce the amount of computing resources needed. A key aspect of the solution is the transformation of a collection of rules into a Non-deterministic Finite state Automaton efficiently implemented on FPGA. Experiments performed on-premises and in the cloud show several orders of magnitude improvement over the existing solution, and the potential to reduce by 40\% the number of machines needed for the flight search engine.},

	abstract = {The ability to perform machine learning (ML) tasks in a database
management system (DBMS) provides the data analyst with a powerful
tool. Unfortunately, integration of ML into a DBMS is challenging
for reasons varying from differences in execution model to
data layout requirements. In this paper, we assume a column-store
main-memory DBMS, optimized for online analytical processing,
as our initial system. On this system, we explore the integration of
coordinate-descent based methods working natively on columnar
format to train generalized linear models. We use a cache-efficient,
partitioned stochastic coordinate descent algorithm providing linear
throughput scalability with the number of cores while preserving
convergence quality, up to 14 cores in our experiments.
Existing column oriented DBMS rely on compression and even
encryption to store data in memory. When those features are considered,
the performance of a CPU based solution suffers. Thus,
in the paper we also show how to exploit hardware acceleration
as part of a hybrid CPU+FPGA system to provide on-the-fly data
transformation combined with an FPGA-based coordinate-descent
engine. The resulting system is a column-store DBMS with its important
features preserved (e.g., data compression) that offers high
performance machine learning capabilities.},

	abstract = {A number of physical limitations mandate radical changes in the way how we build computing hard- and software, and there is broad consensus that a stronger interaction between hard- and software communities is needed to meet the ever-growing demand for application performance. Under this motivation, representatives from various hard- and software communities have met at the Dagstuhl seminar "Databases on Future Hardware" to discuss the implications in the context of database systems. The outcome of the seminar was not only a much better understanding of each other{\textquoteright}s needs, constraints, and ways of thinking. Very importantly, the group identified topic areas that seem key for the ongoing shift, together with suggestions on how the field could move forward. During the seminar, it turned out that the future of databases is not only a question of technology. Rather, economic considerations have to be taken into account when building next-generation database engines.},

	abstract = {Decision tree ensembles are commonly used in a wide range of applications and becoming the de facto algorithm for decision tree based classifiers. Different trees in an ensemble can be processed in parallel during tree inference, making them a suitable use case for FPGAs. Large tree ensembles, however, require careful mapping of trees to on-chip memory and management of memory accesses. As a result, existing FPGA solutions suffer from the inability to scale beyond tens of trees and lack the flexibility to support different tree ensembles. In this paper we present an FPGA tree ensemble classifier together with a software driver to efficiently manage the FPGA{\textquoteright}s memory resources. The classifier architecture efficiently utilizes the FPGA{\textquoteright}s resources to fit half a million tree nodes in on-chip memory, delivering up to 20{\texttimes} speedup over a 10-threaded CPU implementation when fully processing the tree ensemble on the FPGA. It can also combine the CPU and FPGA to scale to tree ensembles that do not fit in on-chip memory, achieving up to an order of magnitude speedup compared to a pure CPU implementation. In addition, the classifier architecture can be programmed at runtime to process varying tree ensemble sizes.},

	abstract = {The ever increasing amount of data being handled in data centers causes an intrinsic inefficiency: moving data around is expensive in terms of bandwidth, latency, and power consumption, especially given the low computational complexity of many database operations. In this paper we explore near-data processing in database engines, i.e., the option of offloading part of the computation directly to the storage nodes. We implement our ideas in Caribou, an intelligent distributed storage layer incorporating many of the lessons learned while building systems with specialized hardware. Caribou provides access to DRAM/NVRAM storage over the network through a simple key-value store interface, with each storage node providing high-bandwidth near-data processing at line rate and fault tolerance through replication. The result is a highly efficient, distributed, intelligent data storage that can be used to both boost performance and reduce power consumption and real estate usage in the data center thanks to the micro-server architecture adopted.},

	abstract = {Taking advantage of recently released hybrid multicore architectures, such as the Intel Xeon+FPGA machine, where the FPGA has coherent access to the main memory through the QPI bus, we explore the benefits of specializing operators to hardware. We focus on two commonly used SQL operators for strings: LIKE, and REGEXP_LIKE, and provide a novel and efficient implementation of these operators in reconfigurable hardware. We integrate the hardware accelerator into MonetDB, a main-memory column store, and demonstrate a significant improvement in response time and throughput. Our Hardware User Defined Function (HUDF) can speed up complex pattern matching by an order of magnitude in comparison to the database running on a 10-core CPU. The insights gained from integrating hardware based string operators into MonetDB should also be useful for future designs combining hardware specialization and databases.},

@inproceedings{abc,
	abstract = {Implementing parallel operators in multi-core machines often involves a data partitioning step that divides the data into cache-size blocks and arranges them so to allow concurrent threads to process them in parallel. Data partitioning is expensive, in some cases up to 90\% of the cost of, e.g., a parallel hash join. In this paper we explore the use of an FPGA to accelerate data partitioning. We do so in the context of new hybrid architectures where the FPGA is located as a co-processor residing on a socket and with coherent access to the same memory as the CPU residing on the other socket. Such an architecture reduces data transfer overheads between the CPU and the FPGA, enabling hybrid operator execution where the partitioning happens on the FPGA and the build and probe phases of a join happen on the CPU. Our experiments demonstrate that FPGA-based partitioning is significantly faster and more robust than CPU-based partitioning. The results open interesting options as FPGAs are gradually integrated tighter with the CPU.},

	abstract = {Stochastic gradient descent (SGD) is a commonly used algorithm for training linear machine learning models. Based on vector algebra, it benefits from the inherent parallelism available in an FPGA. In this paper, we first present a single-precision floating-point SGD implementation on an FPGA that provides similar performance as a 10-core CPU. We then adapt the design to make it capable of processing low-precision data. The low-precision data is obtained from a novel compression scheme-called stochastic quantization, specifically designed for machine learning applications. We test both full-precision and low-precision designs on various regression and classification data sets. We achieve up to an order of magnitude training speedup when using low-precision data compared to a full-precision SGD on the same FPGA and a state-of-the-art multi-core solution, while maintaining the quality of training. We open source the designs presented in this paper.},

In this article, we focus on Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA), a feature increasingly available in modern networks enabling the network card to directly write to and read from main memory. RDMA has started to attract attention as a technical solution to quite a few performance bottlenecks in distributed data management but there is still much work to be done to make it an effective technology suitable for database engines. In this article, we identify several advantages and drawbacks of RDMA and related technologies, and propose new communication primitives that would bridge the gap between the operations provided by high-speed networks and the needs of data processing systems.},

@inproceedings{abc,
	abstract = {Consensus mechanisms for ensuring consistency are some of the most expensive operations in managing large amounts of data. Often, there is a trade off that involves reducing the coordination overhead at the price of accepting possible data loss or inconsistencies. As the demand for more efficient data centers increases, it is important to provide better ways of ensuring consistency without affecting performance.

In this paper we show that consensus (atomic broadcast) can be removed from the critical path of performance by moving it to hardware. As a proof of concept, we implement Zookeeper{\textquoteright}s atomic broadcast at the network level using an FPGA. Our design uses both TCP and an application specific network protocol. The design can be used to push more value into the network, e.g., by extending the functionality of middleboxes or adding inexpensive consensus to in-network processing nodes.

To illustrate how this hardware consensus can be used in practical systems, we have combined it with a mainmemory key value store running on specialized microservers (built as well on FPGAs). This results in a distributed service similar to Zookeeper that exhibits high and stable performance. This work can be used as a blueprint for further specialized designs.},

@inproceedings{abc,
	abstract = {
        Data provenance is essential in applications such as scientific
        computing, curated databases, and data warehouses. Several
        systems have been developed that provide provenance
        functionality for the relational data model. These systems
        support only a small subset of SQL, a severe limitation in
        practice since most of the application domains that benefit from
        provenance information use complex queries. Such queries
        typically involve nested subqueries, aggregation and/or user
        defined functions. Without support for these constructs, a
        provenance management system is of limited use.

        In this paper we address this limitation by exploring the
        problem of provenance derivation when complex queries are
        involved. More precisely, we demonstrate that the widely used
        definition of Why-provenance fails in the presence of nested
        subqueries, and show how the definition can be modified to
        produce meaningful results for nested subqueries. We further
        present query rewrite rules to transform an SQL query into a
        query propagating provenance. The solution introduced in this
        paper allows us to track provenance information for a far wider
        subset of SQL than any of the existing approaches. We have
        incorporated these ideas into the Perm provenance management
        system engine and used it to evaluate the feasibility and
        performance of our approach.

@inproceedings{abc,
	abstract = {        Data Stream Management Systems (DSMS) operate under strict
        performance requirements. Key to meeting such requirements is to
        efficiently handle time-critical tasks such as managing internal
        states of continuous query operators, traffic on the queues
        between operators, as well as providing storage support for
        shared computation and archived data. In this paper, we
        introduce a general purpose storage management framework for
        DSMSs that performs these tasks based on a clean,
        loosely-coupled, and flexible system design that also
        facilitates performance optimization. An important contribution
        of the framework is that, in analogy to buffer management
        techniques in relational database systems, it uses information
        about the access patterns of streaming applications to tune and
        customize the performance of the storage manager. In the paper,
        we first analyze typical application requirements at different
        granularities in order to identify important tunable parameters
        and their corresponding values. Based on these parameters, we
        define a general-purpose storage management interface. Using the
        interface, a developer can use our SMS (Storage Manager for
        Streams) to generate a customized storage manager for streaming
        applications. We explore the performance and potential of SMS
        through a set of experiments using the Linear Road
        benchmark.

	abstract = {Business processes provide abstractions for modelling business protocols that define the correct interactions between two or more Web services (WS). It has been shown that it is possible to automatically derive role-specific processes from a global protocol definition and also statically verify the compliance of a local process with the corresponding global business process. In this paper, we show that a similar approach can be used at run-time. We propose to employ process-based tools to enforce that the messages exchanged between different WS comply with a given business protocol, both in terms of sequencing constraints and data flow characteristics. Our solution simplifies the implementation of WS because it helps to separate the concern of business protocol compliance from the actual service implementation. To do so, we show how to transparently add a protocol enforcement layer to the WS messaging stack. Our experimental results indicate that this imposes a minimal overhead.},

@misc{abc,
	abstract = {PROSE (PROgrammable extenSions of sErvices), an open source project (http://prose.ethz.ch/), is an adaptive middleware platform based on Java for dynamic AOP which allows aspects to be woven, unwoven, or replaced at run time. Woven into a program, an aspect may change several units of functionality. Aspects are expressed in the same source language as the application (Java). PROSE provides middleware tools that allow run time monitoring of remote aspects. The PROSE workbench for weaving, unweaving and querying aspects is a monitoring tool which displays information about what aspects are currently inserted in the system, what join-points belong to each aspect, and what the join-points of the system are. Embedded into an Eclipse plug-in, this tool is also used to developing and running PROSE applications from Eclipse and allows run time monitoring of remote aspects, and provides a creation wizard that helps to create PROSE aspects.

In this demonstration we present PROSE and its associated middleware tools. We show the flexibility of PROSE and how it has been embedded into Eclipse, and present a variety of examples of run time adaptation. In the first part of the demonstration we show how to modify the behavior of a running application by dynamically weaving an aspect that identifies places of interest in the application. After each weaving operation, we show that the running application has been adapted and we use the PROSE middleware tools to graphically display the join-points matched by the woven aspect. In the second part of the demonstration we show how easy is to create aspects that modify a program at run time using the creation wizard of the PROSE Development Tools for Eclipse. When an aspect is created, the user can select the PROSE crosscut types and pointcutters from a list. Then the code template for a PROSE aspect that defines an advice method and a poincut method will be generated. The aspects are then woven remotely into different VMs. After the weaving operation, we show that the running application has been adapted. In case of two running applications, we show that the aspects can be cut and pasted between distinct VMs using the PROSE workbench and also can be moved between distinct VMs by drag and drop using the PROSE plug-in for Eclipse. We also show how to insert and withdraw aspects transactionally. We start a transaction and then weave and unweave aspects into/from different VMs.

Aspect insertions and withdrawals won{\textquoteright}t be activated until the transaction is committed. The transaction can also be aborted, leaving the application as if no insertion or withdrawal ever took place.
