These models involve two execution stages: summarization and generation. The generation stage accounts for a significant portion of the total execution time due to its auto-regressive property, which necessitates considerable and repetitive off-chip accesses. Consequently, our objective is to minimize off-chip accesses during the generation stage to expedite transformer execution. To achieve the goal, we propose a token-adaptive early exit (ToEx) that generates output tokens using fewer decoders, thereby reducing off-chip accesses for loading weight parameters. Although our approach has the potential to minimize data communication, it brings two challenges: 1) inaccurate self-attention computation, and 2) significant overhead for exit decision. To overcome these challenges, we introduce a methodology that facilitates accurate self-attention by lazily performing computations for previously exited tokens. Moreover, we mitigate the overhead of exit decision by incorporating a lightweight output embedding layer. We also present a hardware design to efficiently support the proposed work. Evaluation results demonstrate that our work can reduce the number of decoders by 2.6\u0000<inline-formula><tex-math>$times$</tex-math></inline-formula>\u0000 on average.

However, current decentralized methods, such as heuristics and game theory-based methods, either optimize greedily or depend on rigid assumptions, failing to adapt to the dynamic edge environment. Existing DRL-based approaches train the model in a simulation and then apply it in practical systems. These methods may perform poorly because of the divergence between the practical system and the simulated environment. Other methods that train and deploy the model directly in real-world systems face a cold-start problem, which will reduce the users’ QoE before the model converges. This paper proposes a novel offline-to-online DRL called (O2O-DRL). It uses the heuristic task logs to warm-start the DRL model offline. However, offline and online data have different distributions, so using offline methods for online fine-tuning will ruin the policy learned offline. To avoid this problem, we use on-policy DRL to fine-tune the model and prevent value overestimation. We evaluate O2O-DRL with other approaches in a simulation and a Kubernetes-based testbed. The performance results show that O2O-DRL outperforms other methods and solves the cold-start problem.","PeriodicalId":13087,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Computers","volume":"73 6","pages":"1603-1615"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140170080","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Most existing LSM-Tree based KVSs use PM as an intermediate or smoothing layer, which fails to fully exploit PM's unique advantages to maximize I/O throughput. However, due to PM's distinct characteristics, such as byte addressability and short erasure time, simply replacing existing storage with PM does not yield optimal I/O performance. Furthermore, LSM-Tree based KVSs often face slow read performance. To tackle these challenges, this paper presents HPDK, a hybrid PM-DRAM KVS that combines level compression for LSM-Trees in PM with a B\u0000<inline-formula><tex-math>${}^{+}$</tex-math></inline-formula>\u0000-tree based in-memory search index in DRAM, resulting in high write and read throughput.

Nevertheless, emerging real-number representations, such as posit arithmetic, show promise in delivering even higher accuracy in such computations. In this work, we explore the native use of 64-bit posits in a series of numerical benchmarks and compare their timing performance, accuracy and hardware cost to IEEE 754 doubles. In addition, we also study the conjugate gradient method for numerically solving systems of linear equations in real-world applications. For this, we extend the PERCIVAL RISC-V core and the Xposit custom RISC-V extension with posit64 and quire operations. Results show that posit64 can obtain up to 4 orders of magnitude lower mean square error than doubles. This leads to a reduction in the number of iterations required for convergence in some iterative solvers. However, leveraging the quire accumulator register can limit the order of some operations such as matrix multiplications. Furthermore, detailed FPGA and ASIC synthesis results highlight the significant hardware cost of 64-bit posit arithmetic and quire. Despite this, the large accuracy improvements achieved with the same memory bandwidth suggest that posit arithmetic may provide a potential alternative representation for scientific computing.","PeriodicalId":13087,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Computers","volume":"73 6","pages":"1472-1485"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10473215","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140169609","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Consequently, adapting PBFT to the dynamic changes of an IoT environment with incomplete information represents a challenge that urgently needs to be addressed. To this end, we introduce DA-PBFT, a PBFT dynamic adaptive framework based on a multi-agent architecture. DA-PBFT divides the dynamic adaptive process into two sub-processes: optimality-seeking and optimization decision-making. During the optimality-seeking process, a PBFT optimization model is constructed based on deep reinforcement learning. This model is designed to generate PBFT optimization strategies for consensus nodes. In the optimization decision-making process, a PBFT optimization decision consensus mechanism is constructed based on the Borda count method. This mechanism ensures consistency in PBFT optimization decisions within an environment characterized by incomplete information. Furthermore, we designed a dynamic adaptive incentive mechanism to explore the Nash equilibrium conditions and security aspects of DA-PBFT. The experimental results demonstrate that DA-PBFT is capable of achieving consistency in PBFT optimization decisions within an environment of incomplete information, thereby offering robust and efficient transaction throughput for IoT applications.","PeriodicalId":13087,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Computers","volume":"73 7","pages":"1669-1682"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140169591","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The inefficient resource scheduling among multiple applications further degrades their overall model accuracy. In this paper, we present ElasticDNN, a framework that enables online DNN remodeling for applications encountering evolving domain drifts at edge. Its first key component is the master-surrogate DNN models, which can dynamically generate a small surrogate DNN by retaining and training the large master DNN's most relevant regions pertinent to the new domain. The second novelty of ElasticDNN is the filter-grained resource scheduling, which allocates GPU resources based on online accuracy estimation and DNN remodeling of co-running applications. We fully implement ElasticDNN and demonstrate its effectiveness through extensive experiments. The results show that, compared to existing online DA methods using the same model sizes, ElasticDNN improves accuracy by 23.31% and reduces adaption time by 35.67x.
