We present FPDetect, a low overhead approach for detecting logical errors and soft errors affecting stencil computations without generating false positives. We develop an offline analysis that tightly estimates the number of floating-point bits preserved across stencil applications. This estimate rigorously bounds the values expected in the data space of the computation. Violations of this bound can be attributed with certainty to errors. FPDetect helps synthesize error detectors customized for user-specified levels of accuracy and coverage. FPDetect also enables overhead reduction techniques based on deploying these detectors coarsely in space and time. Experimental evaluations demonstrate the practicality of our approach.

Most modern (classical) programming languages support recursion. Recursion has also been successfully applied to the design of several quantum algorithms and introduced in a couple of quantum programming languages. So, it can be expected that recursi
on will become one of the fundamental paradigms of quantum programming. Several program logics have been developed for verification of quantum while-programs. However, there are as yet no general methods for reasoning about (mutual) recursive procedures and ancilla quantum data structure in quantum computing (with measurement). We fill the gap in this paper by proposing a parameterized quantum assertion logic and, based on which, designing a quantum Hoare logic for verifying parameterized recursive quantum programs with ancilla data and probabilistic control. The quantum Hoare logic can be used to prove partial, total, and even probabilistic correctness (by reducing to total correctness) of those quantum programs. In particular, two counterexamples for illustrating incompleteness of non-parameterized assertions in verifying recursive procedures, and, one counterexample for showing the failure of reasoning with exact probabilities based on partial correctness, are constructed. The effectiveness of our logic is shown by three main examples -- recursive quantum Markov chain (with probabilistic control), fixed-point Grovers search, and recursive quantum Fourier sampling.
Stencil computation is one of the most important kernels in various scientific and engineering applications. A variety of work has focused on vectorization and tiling techniques, aiming at exploiting the in-core data parallelism and data locality res
pectively. In this paper, the downsides of existing vectorization schemes are analyzed. Briefly, they either incur data alignment conflicts or hurt the data locality when integrated with tiling. Then we propose a novel transpose layout to preserve the data locality for tiling and reduce the data reorganization overhead for vectorization simultaneously. To further improve the data reuse at the register level, a time loop unroll-and-jam strategy is designed to perform multistep stencil computation along the time dimension. Experimental results on the AVX-2 and AVX-512 CPUs show that our approach obtains a competitive performance.
Stencil kernels dominate a range of scientific applications, including seismic and medical imaging, image processing, and neural networks. Temporal blocking is a performance optimization that aims to reduce the required memory bandwidth of stencil co
mputations by re-using data from the cache for multiple time steps. It has already been shown to be beneficial for this class of algorithms. However, applying temporal blocking to practical applications stencils remains challenging. These computations often consist of sparsely located operators not aligned with the computational grid (off-the-grid). Our work is motivated by modeling problems in which source injections result in wavefields that must then be measured at receivers by interpolation from the grided wavefield. The resulting data dependencies make the adoption of temporal blocking much more challenging. We propose a methodology to inspect these data dependencies and reorder the computation, leading to performance gains in stencil codes where temporal blocking has not been applicable. We implement this novel scheme in the Devito domain-specific compiler toolchain. Devito implements a domain-specific language embedded in Python to generate optimized partial differential equation solvers using the finite-difference method from high-level symbolic problem definitions. We evaluate our scheme using isotropic acoustic, anisotropic acoustic, and isotropic elastic wave propagators of industrial significance. After auto-tuning, performance evaluation shows that this enables substantial performance improvement through temporal blocking over highly-optimized vectorized spatially-blocked code of up to 1.6x.
We present a so-called labelling method to insert cost annotations in a higher-order functional program, to certify their correctness with respect to a standard compilation chain to assembly code including safe memory management, and to reason on them in a higher-order Hoare logic.
As one of the most popular south-bound protocol of software-defined networking(SDN), OpenFlow decouples the network control from forwarding devices. It offers flexible and scalable functionality for networks. These advantages may cause performance is
sues since there are performance penalties in terms of packet processing speed. It is important to understand the performance of OpenFlow switches and controllers for its deployments. In this paper we model the packet processing time of OpenFlow switches and controllers. We mainly analyze how the probability of packet-in messages impacts the performance of switches and controllers. Our results show that there is a performance penalty in OpenFlow networks. However, the penalty is not much when probability of packet-in messages is low. This model can be used for a network designer to approximate the performance of her deployments.
