Extension of ACETONE C code generator for multi-core architectures

As the industry's interest in machine learning has grown in recent years, some solutions have emerged to safely embed them in safety-critical systems, such as the C code generator ACETONE. However, this framework is limited to generating sequential code, which cannot make most of the multi-core architectures. In this paper, we initiate an extension of ACETONE for the generation of parallel code by formally defining our processor assignment problem and surveying the state of the art on existing solutions. In the final paper, we will introduce the completed extension, including the implementation of the scheduling heuristic, the creation of templates implementing synchronization mechanisms, and an evaluation of the worst-case execution time of the framework's layers.

Truthful Market-based Trading of Cloud Resources with Reservation Price

With the rapidly growing demand for the cloud services, a need for efficient methods to trade computing resources increases. Commonly used fixed-price model is not always the best approach for trading cloud resources, because of its inflexible and static nature. Dynamic trading systems, which make use of market mechanisms, show promise for more efficient resource allocation and pricing in the cloud. However, most of the existing mechanisms ignore the seller's costs of providing the resources. In order to address it, we propose a single-sided market mechanism for trading virtual machine instances in the cloud, where the cloud provider can express the reservation prices for traded cloud services. We investigate the theoretical properties of the proposed mechanism and prove that it is truthful, i.e. the buyers do not have an incentive to lie about their true valuation of the resources. We perform extensive experiments in order to investigate the impact of the reserve price on the market outcome. Our experiments show that the proposed mechanism yields near optimal allocations and has a low execution time.
