The spatial join is a popular operation in spatial database systems and its evaluation is a well-studied problem. As main memories become bigger and faster and commodity hardware supports parallel processing, there is a need to revamp classic join algorithms which have been designed for I/O-bound processing. In view of this, we study the in-memory and parallel evaluation of spatial joins, by re-designing a classic partitioning-based algorithm to consider alternative approaches for space partitioning. Our study shows that, compared to a straightforward implementation of the algorithm, our tuning can improve performance significantly. We also show how to select appropriate partitioning parameters based on data statistics, in order to tune the algorithm for the given join inputs. Our parallel implementation scales gracefully with the number of threads reducing the cost of the join to at most one second even for join inputs with tens of millions of rectangles.

Due to the coarse granularity of data accesses and the heavy use of latches, indices in the B-tree family are not efficient for in-memory databases, especially in the context of todays multi-core architecture. In this paper, we present PI, a Parall
el in-memory skip list based Index that lends itself naturally to the parallel and concurrent environment, particularly with non-uniform memory access. In PI, incoming queries are collected, and disjointly distributed among multiple threads for processing to avoid the use of latches. For each query, PI traverses the index in a Breadth-First-Search (BFS) manner to find the list node with the matching key, exploiting SIMD processing to speed up the search process. In order for query processing to be latch-free, PI employs a light-weight communication protocol that enables threads to re-distribute the query workload among themselves such that each list node that will be modified as a result of query processing will be accessed by exactly one thread. We conducted extensive experiments, and the results show that PI can be up to three times as fast as the Masstree, a state-of-the-art B-tree based index.
Very large volumes of spatial data increasingly become available and demand effective management. While there has been decades of research on spatial data management, few works consider the current state of commodity hardware, having relatively large
memory and the ability of parallel multi-core processing. In this work, we re-consider the design of spatial indexing under this new reality. Specifically, we propose a main-memory indexing approach for objects with spatial extent, which is based on a classic regular space partitioning into disjoint tiles. The novelty of our index is that the contents of each tile are further partitioned into four classes. This second-level partitioning not only reduces the number of comparisons required to compute the results, but also avoids the generation and elimination of duplicate results, which is an inherent problem of spatial indexes based on disjoint space partitioning. The spatial partitions defined by our indexing scheme are totally independent, facilitating effortless parallel evaluation, as no synchronization or communication between the partitions is necessary. We show how our index can be used to efficiently process spatial range queries and drastically reduce the cost of the refinement step of the queries. In addition, we study the efficient processing of numerous range queries in batch and in parallel. Extensive experiments on real datasets confirm the efficiency of our approaches.
A major algorithmic challenge in designing applications intended for secure remote execution is ensuring that they are oblivious to their inputs, in the sense that their memory access patterns do not leak sensitive information to the server. This pro
blem is particularly relevant to cloud databases that wish to allow queries over the clients encrypted data. One of the major obstacles to such a goal is the join operator, which is non-trivial to implement obliviously without resorting to generic but inefficient solutions like Oblivious RAM (ORAM). We present an oblivious algorithm for equi-joins which (up to a logarithmic factor) matches the optimal $O(nlog n)$ complexity of the standard non-secure sort-merge join (on inputs producing $O(n)$ outputs). We do not use use expensive primitives like ORAM or rely on unrealistic hardware or security assumptions. Our approach, which is based on sorting networks and novel provably-oblivious constructions, is conceptually simple, easily verifiable, and very efficient in practice. Its data-independent algorithmic structure makes it secure in various different settings for remote computation, even in those that are known to be vulnerable to certain side-channel attacks (such as Intel SGX) or with strict requirements for low circuit complexity (like secure multiparty computation). We confirm that our approach is easily realizable through a compact implementation which matches our expectations for performance and is shown, both formally and empirically, to possess the desired security characteristics.
A benchmark study of modern distributed databases is an important source of information to select the right technology for managing data in the cloud-edge paradigms. To make the right decision, it is required to conduct an extensive experimental stud
y on a variety of hardware infrastructures. While most of the state-of-the-art studies have investigated only response time and scalability of distributed databases, focusing on other various metrics (e.g., energy, bandwidth, and storage consumption) is essential to fully understand the resources consumption of the distributed databases. Also, existing studies have explored the response time and scalability of these databases either in private or public cloud. Hence, there is a paucity of investigation into the evaluation of these databases deployed in a hybrid cloud, which is the seamless integration of public and private cloud. To address these research gaps, in this paper, we investigate energy, bandwidth and storage consumption of the most used and common distributed databases. For this purpose, we have evaluated four open-source databases (Cassandra, Mongo, Redis and MySQL) on the hybrid cloud spanning over local OpenStack and Microsoft Azure, and a variety of edge computing nodes including Raspberry Pi, a cluster of Raspberry Pi, and low and high power servers. Our extensive experimental results reveal several helpful insights for the deployment selection of modern distributed databases in edge-cloud environments.
Many state-of-the-art ML results have been obtained by scaling up the number of parameters in existing models. However, parameters and activations for such large models often do not fit in the memory of a single accelerator device; this means that it
is necessary to distribute training of large models over multiple accelerators. In this work, we propose PipeDream-2BW, a system that supports memory-efficient pipeline parallelism. PipeDream-2BW uses a novel pipelining and weight gradient coalescing strategy, combined with the double buffering of weights, to ensure high throughput, low memory footprint, and weight update semantics similar to data parallelism. In addition, PipeDream-2BW automatically partitions the model over the available hardware resources, while respecting hardware constraints such as memory capacities of accelerators and interconnect topologies. PipeDream-2BW can accelerate the training of large GPT and BERT language models by up to 20$times$ with similar final model accuracy.
