This is even more challenging on parallel and distributed systems due to the wide variety of system architectures. One way to address this problem is to adaptively select the best parallel algorithm for the current input data and system from a set of functionally equivalent algorithmic options. Toward this goal, we have developed a general framework for adaptive algorithm selection for use in the Standard Template Adaptive Parallel Library ({STAPL}). Our framework uses machine learning techniques to analyze data collected by {STAPL} installation benchmarks and to determine tests that will select among algorithmic options at run-time. We apply a prototype implementation of our framework to two important parallel operations, sorting and matrix multiplication, on multiple platforms and show that the framework determines run-time tests that correctly select the best performing algorithm from among several competing algorithmic options in 86-100\% of the cases studied, depending on the operation and the system.}, pages = {277--288}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the Tenth {ACM} {SIGPLAN} Symposium on Principles and Practice of Parallel Programming}, publisher = {Association for Computing Machinery}, author = {Thomas, Nathan and Tanase, Gabriel and Tkachyshyn, Olga and Perdue, Jack and Amato, Nancy M. and Rauchwerger, Lawrence}, date = {2005}, - note = {event-place: Chicago, {IL}, {USA}}, - keywords = {ml, read}, } @inproceedings{osterlund_dynamically_2013, @@ -40,50 +29,36 @@ booktitle = {2013 28th {IEEE}/{ACM} International Conference on Automated Software Engineering ({ASE})}, author = {Österlund, Erik and Löwe, Welf}, date = {2013}, - keywords = {read, rules-based}, } @inproceedings{franke_collection_2022, - location = {New York, {NY}, {USA}}, title = {Collection Skeletons: Declarative Abstractions for Data Collections}, - isbn = {978-1-4503-9919-7}, url = {https://doi.org/10.1145/3567512.3567528}, doi = {10.1145/3567512.3567528}, series = {{SLE} 2022}, - abstract = {Modern programming languages provide programmers with rich abstractions for data collections as part of their standard libraries, e.g. Containers in the C++ {STL}, the Java Collections Framework, or the Scala Collections {API}. Typically, these collections frameworks are organised as hierarchies that provide programmers with common abstract data types ({ADTs}) like lists, queues, and stacks. While convenient, this approach introduces problems which ultimately affect application performance due to users over-specifying collection data types limiting implementation flexibility. In this paper, we develop Collection Skeletons which provide a novel, declarative approach to data collections. Using our framework, programmers explicitly select properties for their collections, thereby truly decoupling specification from implementation. By making collection properties explicit immediate benefits materialise in form of reduced risk of over-specification and increased implementation flexibility. We have prototyped our declarative abstractions for collections as a C++ library, and demonstrate that benchmark applications rewritten to use Collection Skeletons incur little or no overhead. In fact, for several benchmarks, we observe performance speedups (on average between 2.57 to 2.93, and up to 16.37) and also enhanced performance portability across three different hardware platforms.}, pages = {189--201}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 15th {ACM} {SIGPLAN} International Conference on Software Language Engineering}, publisher = {Association for Computing Machinery}, author = {Franke, Björn and Li, Zhibo and Morton, Magnus and Steuwer, Michel}, date = {2022}, - note = {event-place: Auckland, New Zealand}, - keywords = {read, functional requirements}, - file = {Accepted Version:/home/aria/Zotero/storage/TJ3AGL2S/Franke et al. - 2022 - Collection Skeletons Declarative Abstractions for.pdf:application/pdf}, } @article{qin_primrose_2023, title = {Primrose: Selecting Container Data Types by Their Properties}, volume = {7}, - issn = {2473-7321}, url = {http://arxiv.org/abs/2205.09655}, doi = {10.22152/programming-journal.org/2023/7/11}, shorttitle = {Primrose}, - abstract = {Context: Container data types are ubiquitous in computer programming, enabling developers to efficiently store and process collections of data with an easy-to-use programming interface. Many programming languages offer a variety of container implementations in their standard libraries based on data structures offering different capabilities and performance characteristics. Inquiry: Choosing the *best* container for an application is not always straightforward, as performance characteristics can change drastically in different scenarios, and as real-world performance is not always correlated to theoretical complexity. Approach: We present Primrose, a language-agnostic tool for selecting the best performing valid container implementation from a set of container data types that satisfy *properties* given by application developers. Primrose automatically selects the set of valid container implementations for which the *library specifications*, written by the developers of container libraries, satisfies the specified properties. Finally, Primrose ranks the valid library implementations based on their runtime performance. Knowledge: With Primrose, application developers can specify the expected behaviour of a container as a type refinement with *semantic properties*, e.g., if the container should only contain unique values (such as a `set`) or should satisfy the {LIFO} property of a `stack`. Semantic properties nicely complement *syntactic properties* (i.e., traits, interfaces, or type classes), together allowing developers to specify a container's programming interface *and* behaviour without committing to a concrete implementation. Grounding: We present our prototype implementation of Primrose that preprocesses annotated Rust code, selects valid container implementations and ranks them on their performance. The design of Primrose is, however, language-agnostic, and is easy to integrate into other programming languages that support container data types and traits, interfaces, or type classes. Our implementation encodes properties and library specifications into verification conditions in Rosette, an interface for {SMT} solvers, which determines the set of valid container implementations. We evaluate Primrose by specifying several container implementations, and measuring the time taken to select valid implementations for various combinations of properties with the solver. We automatically validate that container implementations conform to their library specifications via property-based testing. Importance: This work provides a novel approach to bring abstract modelling and specification of container types directly into the programmer's workflow. Instead of selecting concrete container implementations, application programmers can now work on the level of specification, merely stating the behaviours they require from their container types, and the best implementation can be selected automatically.}, - pages = {11}, number = {3}, journaltitle = {The Art, Science, and Engineering of Programming}, - shortjournal = {Programming}, author = {Qin, Xueying and O'Connor, Liam and Steuwer, Michel}, urldate = {2023-09-25}, date = {2023-02-15}, eprinttype = {arxiv}, eprint = {2205.09655 [cs]}, - keywords = {read, functional requirements}, - file = {arXiv Fulltext PDF:/home/aria/Zotero/storage/IL59NESA/Qin et al. - 2023 - Primrose Selecting Container Data Types by Their .pdf:application/pdf;arXiv.org Snapshot:/home/aria/Zotero/storage/DCIW4XE4/2205.html:text/html}, } @inproceedings{costa_collectionswitch_2018, - location = {Vienna Austria}, title = {{CollectionSwitch}: a framework for efficient and dynamic collection selection}, isbn = {978-1-4503-5617-6}, url = {https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3168825}, @@ -96,15 +71,10 @@ author = {Costa, Diego and Andrzejak, Artur}, urldate = {2023-09-21}, date = {2018-02-24}, - langid = {english}, - keywords = {read, estimate-based}, - file = {Costa and Andrzejak - 2018 - CollectionSwitch a framework for efficient and dy:/home/aria/Zotero/storage/7B8QMVRU/Costa and Andrzejak - 2018 - CollectionSwitch a framework for efficient and dy:application/pdf}, } @inproceedings{shacham_chameleon_2009, - location = {Dublin Ireland}, title = {Chameleon: adaptive selection of collections}, - isbn = {978-1-60558-392-1}, url = {https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/1542476.1542522}, doi = {10.1145/1542476.1542522}, shorttitle = {Chameleon}, @@ -115,30 +85,20 @@ author = {Shacham, Ohad and Vechev, Martin and Yahav, Eran}, urldate = {2023-09-21}, date = {2009-06-15}, - langid = {english}, - keywords = {read, rules-based}, - file = {Shacham et al. - 2009 - Chameleon adaptive selection of collections.pdf:/home/aria/Zotero/storage/75CS9CWY/Shacham et al. - 2009 - Chameleon adaptive selection of collections.pdf:application/pdf}, } @incollection{hutchison_coco_2013, - location = {Berlin, Heidelberg}, title = {{CoCo}: Sound and Adaptive Replacement of Java Collections}, volume = {7920}, - isbn = {978-3-642-39037-1 978-3-642-39038-8}, - url = {http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-642-39038-8_1}, + url = "http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-642-39038-8_1", shorttitle = {{CoCo}}, pages = {1--26}, booktitle = {{ECOOP} 2013 – Object-Oriented Programming}, publisher = {Springer Berlin Heidelberg}, author = {Xu, Guoqing}, - editor = {Castagna, Giuseppe}, - editorb = {Hutchison, David and Kanade, Takeo and Kittler, Josef and Kleinberg, Jon M. and Mattern, Friedemann and Mitchell, John C. and Naor, Moni and Nierstrasz, Oscar and Pandu Rangan, C. and Steffen, Bernhard and Sudan, Madhu and Terzopoulos, Demetri and Tygar, Doug and Vardi, Moshe Y. and Weikum, Gerhard}, - editorbtype = {redactor}, urldate = {2023-10-17}, date = {2013}, - doi = {10.1007/978-3-642-39038-8_1}, - note = {Series Title: Lecture Notes in Computer Science}, - keywords = {read, rules-based}, + doi = "10.1007/978-3-642-39038-8_1", } @inproceedings{l_liu_perflint_2009, @@ -149,48 +109,33 @@ booktitle = {2009 International Symposium on Code Generation and Optimization}, author = {{L.

In Java, the default implementation of collections is provided by the standard Java Collection Framework ({JCF}). However, there exist a large variety of less known third-party collection libraries which can provide substantial performance benefits with minimal code changes.In this paper, we first study the popularity and usage patterns of collection implementations by mining a code corpus comprised of 10,986 Java projects. We use the results to evaluate and compare the performance of the six most popular alternative collection libraries in a large variety of scenarios. We found that for almost every scenario and {JCF} collection type there is an alternative implementation that greatly decreases memory consumption while offering comparable or even better execution time. Memory savings range from 60\% to 88\% thanks to reduced overhead and some operations execute 1.5x to 50x faster.We present our results as a comprehensive guideline to help developers in identifying the scenarios in which an alternative implementation can provide a substantial performance improvement.
