Our paper FlexPushdownDB: Rethinking Computation Pushdown for Cloud OLAP DBMSs was accepted for publication at the VLDB Journal. We propose a new adaptive mechanism to avoid overloading the computational capacity of the storage layer during computation pushdown, and identify new opportunities for pushing down query operators.

We published a preprint presenting an extensive comparison of full-graph and mini-batch GNN training systems. We found that mini-batch training systems achieve lower time-to-accuracy in all scenarios we considered and comparable accuracy. More interesting results in the paper!

Our paper GMorph: Accelerating Multi-DNN Inference via Model Fusion accepted at Eurosys’24. The paper proposes “model fusion”, a new approach to fuse multiple task-specific, pre-trained, and heterogeneous DNNs into a single multi-task model to reduce inference latency.
