Mission
|
UNIDAPT Group (UNIversal aDAPTation) pioneers and promotes radically Professional trading platform new practical techniques to overcome the complexity of current and future architectures, compilers, operating systems and programming environments. We are working on creating self-tuning intelligent adaptive systems, automating and improving architecture and compiler design (particularly for future heterogeneous multi-core systems), optimizing and parallelizing applications to improve performance, power consumption, size and fault-tolerance, reduce cost and time to market based on machine learning, artificial intelligence, statistical methods and biologically inspired techniques. This is critical to be able to continue innovation in science and industry (bioinformatics, medicine, physics, chemistry,
finances, gaming, etc) that demands ever-increasing computing resources while placing strict requirements on systems Professional trading platform in India.
UNIDAPT group was created by Dr. Grigori Fursin as a part of the Alchemy group (INRIA), has close interaction with research groups of Prof. Michael O'Boyle (University of Edinburgh), Prof. Olivier Temam (INRIA), colleagues from IBM and is always open to collaborations to move forward the research on adaptive computing. We always welcome highly-motivated English-speaking students, post-docs, researchers and engineers from all over the world (working language in UNIDAPT Group is English) for short-term and long-term collaboration, visits and internships. We are also interested in remote collaboration on software developments. Here you can find information about available positions.
We are currently leading the following research & developments:
-
MILEPOST GCC (thanks to the fruitful collaboration with all the MILEPOST partners) - machine learning based self-tuning compiler that can be used in research through Interactive Compilation Interface (GCC-ICI).
- Continuous Collective Compilation (and Parallelization) Framework - framework to reuse heterogeneous optimization knowledge among different programs and architectures using static and dynamic (hardware counters and reactions) program features based on MILEPOST GCC, Collective Optimization Database and UNIDAPT framework.
[HiPEAC'09 paper; GCC Summit'08 paper and bib];
- Compilation Interface - interface for GCC and Open64 to enable practical iterative interactive optimizations and make future compilers modular and extensible with automatically tuned optimization heuristic easily adaptable to different constraints.
- MiDataSets - multiple datasets to enable realistic program and architecture optimizations, run-time adaptation and performance evaluation.
- UNIDAPT Framework - a new concept to combine static and dynamic optimizations by creating self-tuning static binaries based on static code multiversioning and run-time hardware counters monitoring routines to learn run-time program behavior continuously, detect changes due to different program phases, inputs, environments (OS, architecture, virtual layers) and to dynamically react to those changes by selecting appropriately optimized code versions to improve performance, power, fault-tolerance, etc.
-
- Reactions to optimizations (with the University of Edinburgh)
- we introduced this technique to reuse the knowledge about program optimizations and architecture designs based on reactions to optimizations.
[HiPEAC'09 paper; CASES'06 paper and bib];
