- This Project Grant award, with a total funding of $375,000.00, was provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070). The award aims to simplify and automate the verification of high-performance distributed systems, which are crucial but complex. The project will develop new techniques, such as "message invariants" and "distributed ownership types," to make formal verification of real-world,...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $540,000 Project Grant under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.070) program to The Pennsylvania State University. The grant is for the "SHF: SMALL: COMPILER AND RUNTIME SUPPORT FOR COMPUTATIONAL STORAGE IN HPC" project, which aims to develop scalable software infrastructure, including compilers, runtime systems, and programming interfaces, to enable practical deployment and utilization of computational...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $229,578 Project Grant under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.070) program to Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) to develop hardware and software solutions that address key challenges in enabling a new paradigm of in-memory computing. The research project aims to tackle issues related to fragmented memory resources, insufficient architectural support for memory sharing, and the inefficient separation between...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $675,000 Project Grant under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.070) program to Carnegie Mellon University. The grant, spanning October 2025 to September 2028, aims to improve the ability of Large Language Models (LLMs) to generate high-quality computer source code by deeply integrating program analysis techniques into the LLM lifecycle, including training, code generation, and evaluation. The project will develop novel...
- This $239,150 federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070), aims to bridge the information gap between software systems and hardware devices in computer memory and storage. The research project led by Syracuse University will develop techniques to embed implicit performance hints in the communication channel between systems and storage devices. Key objectives include: (1)...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $311,529 Project Grant to Princeton University under the CISE: Core Programs from the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.070) federal grant program. The project, titled "CAREER: ENCAPSULATING UNSAFE CODE IN LOW-LEVEL SYSTEMS", seeks to develop strategies and mechanisms to safely utilize legacy software libraries with unsafe programming languages by combining hardware-based and language-based techniques. This will...
- This $280,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program supports collaborative research at Northeastern University to design and optimize "Tiny Vector Symbolic Architectures" (TinyVSA) for efficient on-device AI inference. The key objectives are to: Redesign TinyVSA vector representations to significantly reduce dimensionality while maintaining accuracy, Enable continuous and efficient TinyVSA...
This federal Project Grant award of $218,724 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program aims to translate a new technique called "tiny pointers" from theoretical research into a practical, high-performance systems tool. The project has three primary goals: (1) establish principles for building scalable and safe tiny-pointer abstractions, (2) design and implement a high-performance library and OS module to expose these abstractions, and (3) demonstrate space and performance gains across a range of systems. Key applications include classical data structures, OS primitives like page tables, and flash translation layers in solid-state drives. The award was granted to Carnegie Mellon University, a prestigious private research institution, and the project period runs from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2028.
