Максимизировать охват тестовых случаев автоматического генерирования программного обеспечения.

In LSM, data is periodically dropped to different SST files through Compaction operations. During data reading, each SST file provides a BloomFilter to check whether the key exists in the file. It is known that when the BloomFilter returns false, it is 100% guaranteed that the current key is not in the SST file. However, when the BloomFilter returns true, it indicates that the key may or may not exist in the SST file. In this case, the key is false positive. The query performance of LSM-based KV storage database depends largely on the false positive rate. The goal is to design an algorithm that can effectively reduce the false positive rate of BloomFilter. Expectations are reduced by more than 10%, the higher the better.

" Billions of users have now data written with Facebook Zstandard (ZSTD) or Apple LZFSE compressors, which use tANS (tabled asymmetric numeral systems) entropy coder – building finite automaton optimized for a given probability distribution, which transforms symbol sequence into bit sequence.
Details of this automaton are determined by symbol spread (combination):
assignment of one symbol to each state. There is exponential number of such
possibilities, getting various performances as mean numbers of used bits/symbol
– there is basic practical problem of quickly finding nearly optimal symbol spread."

For database management systems, a large amount of work has been done to explore parallel processing of database operations. Special database machines have been designed to obtain increased system performance through both inter-query and intra-query parallelism. However, most of the existing relational database query optimizers only consider plans in which the execution order is modeled by a linear processing tree. An M-way join query is visualized as a sequence of 2-way joins of the form. This strategy seems adequate in uniprocessor systems.In a multiprocessor environment, however, the number of feasible join plans increases dramatically with new dimensions introduced by parallelism and parallel processing tends to give better overall system performance. In this topic, we expect that multi-way join should perform significantly better (at less 20%) than pair-wise joining of tables for a given example database.

Разработка программного обеспечения сегодня и двадцать лет назад существенно отличаются: языки программирования стали проще, доступность открытого кода и его объемы возросли во много раз, среды разработки стали мощнее, появились методики и инструменты автоматизации программирования. Однако, мы еще очень далеко от цели. Мы, программисты, по-прежнему делаем ошибки, выпускаем некачественные продукты, и проваливаем большинство проектов (по мнение многих исследователей). В чем же дело и что может стать решением? Мы считаем, что искусственный интеллект может быть новым этапом в развитии индустрии ПО и сможет повысить качество выпускаемых решений. На лекции мы обсудим, как именно это может произойти и каковы наши шансы повлиять на этот тренд.

The way we develop software today is incomparable with what we were doing twenty years ago: the languages are of a much higher level of abstraction; the availability of open source frameworks and libraries is exceptional; IDEs perfectly automate the majority of routine operations; compilers, linters, and builders are very powerful; continuous delivery practices are almost everywhere, and so on. However, this is not the final destination point yet. We are not even close! We, programmers, still make a lot of mistakes, our software products are full of bugs, and the success rate of software projects is going down every year (according to some industry reports). What is the next? What could be the “silver bullet” to save us from the complexity and instability of software development? We believe that Artificial Intelligence has a very good chance to become one. At the lecture we will discuss how exactly AI can be applied and where are the most interesting research problems to address.

Fueled by the availability of more data and computing power, recent breakthroughs in cloud-based machine learning (ML) have transformed every aspect of our lives from face recognition and medical diagnosis to natural language processing. However, classical ML exerts severe demands in terms of energy, memory and computing resources, limiting their adoption for resource constrained edge devices. The new breed of intelligent devices requires a novel paradigm change calling for distributed, low-latency and reliable ML at the wireless network edge. This talk will explore the potential of the Mobile AI paradigm to unlock the full potential of 5G and beyond.
