"Symbol-Synchronous Buses," by Jonathan Oostvogels et al., conceives a notion of a symbol-synchronous bus, which effectively makes a multi-hop wireless network...

We describe a novel networking paradigm that aims to enable a new class of latency-sensitive applications by systematically breaking networking abstractions.

The breakthrough of "Achieving High Performance the Functional Way," by Bastian Hagedorn et al., is in fundamentally rethinking the design of user-schedulable languages...

We show how to employ functional programming techniques to solve with elegance the challenge of using a high-level language to describe functionality and a separate...

"Proving Data-Poisoning Robustness in Decision Trees," by Samuel Drews et al., addresses the challenge of processing an intractably large set of trained models...

We present a sound verification technique based on abstract interpretation and implement it in a tool called Antidote, which abstractly trains decision trees for...

"Actionable Auditing Revisited," by Inioluwa Deborah Raji and Joy Buolamwini, examines how companies producing commercial facial classification software responded...

This paper investigates the commercial impact of Gender Shades, the first algorithmic audit of gender- and skin-type performance disparities in commercial facial...

"DIAMetrics," by Shaleen Deep et al., describes a versatile framework from Google for automatic extraction of benchmarks and their distributed execution and performance...

This paper introduces DIAMetrics: a novel framework for end-to-end benchmarking and performance monitoring of query engines.

The work explored in "Hummingbird," by Sujay Narayana et al., focuses on the energy consumption of a typical GPS receiver and its operational challenges in a nanosat...

In this work, we elucidate the design of a low-cost, low-power GPS receiver for small satellites.

"Traffic Classification in an Increasingly Encrypted Web," by Iman Akbari et al., does a great job in reviewing related work in the network traffic classification...

In this paper, we design a novel feature engineering approach used for encrypted Web protocols, and develop a neural network architecture based on stacked long...

"AuraRing: Precise Electromagnetic Finger Tracking," by Farshid Salemi Parizi, Eric Whitmire, and Shwetak Patel, details the AuraRing system's remarkable ability...

We present AuraRing, a wearable magnetic tracking system designed for tracking fine-grained finger movement.

"Measuring Security Practices," by Louis F. DeKoven et al., provide a unique perspective into how users choose to implement common security advice in practice. ...

This paper seeks to make progress on the prevalence of popular security practices and their relationship to security outcomes via the longitudinal empirical measurement...

"Polymorphic Wireless Receivers," by Francesco Restuccia and Tommaso Melodia, tackles the problem of physical layer resilience in wireless systems from a completely...

We introduce PolymoRF, a deep learning-based polymorphic receiver able to reconfigure itself in real time based on the inferred waveform parameters.
