Advances in generative artificial intelligence, particularly agentic coding systems capable of autonomous software development, are disrupting the economics of the make-or-buy decision for enterprise …
We propose a human in the loop approach for black-box testing of Functional Mock-up Units (FMUs) using Large Language Models (LLMs). The goal is to reduce the manual effort in defining test scenarios …
Custom policy-learning pipelines in Spark fail for two coupled systems reasons: rowwise Python execution makes inference impractical, and driver-side candidate materialization makes split search fragi…
Publicly verifiable delegation is a well-known problem involving a user who wishes to outsource a resource-intensive computational task to a more powerful but potentially untrusted server such that an…
Given a matrix $A$, the goal of the entrywise low-rank approximation problem is to find $\operatorname{argmin} \|A-B\|_p$ over all rank-$k$ matrices $B$, where $\| \cdot \|_p$ is the entrywise $\ell_p…
Classical robot ethics is often framed around obedience, including Asimov's laws. This framing is insufficient for contemporary AI systems, which are increasingly adaptive, generative, embodied, and e…
Approximate Nearest Neighbor Search with arbitrary filtering predicates (AFANNS) is essential for modern data applications, yet existing methods often incur substantial storage and computational costs…
Modern distributed file systems rely on uncoordinated, per node page caches that replicate hot data locally across the cluster. While ensuring fast local access, this architecture underutilizes aggreg…
We propose CHRONOS, a hardware-assisted framework that decouples the cryptographic setup required for private gradient aggregation from the active training phase. CHRONOS executes a once-per-epoch ser…
Critical infrastructures increasingly rely on interconnected and software-driven Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), exposing operational processes to both accidental failures and sophisticated adversarial …
The evolution from static ranking models to Agentic Recommender Systems (Agentic RecSys) empowers AI agents to maintain long-term user profiles and autonomously plan service tasks. While this paradigm…
Software adoption has traditionally been understood through instrumental lenses, such as usability, cost, security, and interoperability. We argue that a new, ideological dimension is reshaping adopti…
In daily fantasy sports (DFS), match participation is highly time-sensitive. Users must act within a narrow window before a game begins, making match recommendation a time-critical task to prevent mis…
Disaggregated storage systems improve resource utilization and enable independent scaling of storage and compute resources by separating storage resources from computing resources in data centers. NVM…
In a seminal work, Dooly, Goldman, and Scott (STOC 1998; JACM 2001) introduced the classic Online TCP Acknowledgment problem. In this problem, a sequence of $n$ packets arrives over time, and the obje…
The globalization of integrated circuit (IC) design and manufacturing has increased the exposure of hardware intellectual property (IP) to untrusted stages of the supply chain, raising concerns about …
Postmortem avatars (PMAs) -- AI systems that simulate a deceased person by being fine-tuned on data they generated or that was generated about them -- have attracted growing scholarly attention, yet t…
Although AI assistance can improve writing quality, it can also decrease feelings of ownership. Ownership in writing has important implications for attribution, rights, norms, and cognitive engagement…
The emergence of programmable switches has brought in-network computing (INC) into the spotlight in recent years. By offloading computation directly onto the data transmission process, INC improves ne…
While micro-scale traffic simulations provide essential data for urban planning, they are rarely coupled with the high-fidelity visualization or auralization necessary for effective stakeholder commun…
