A methodology for full system power modeling in heterogeneous data centersRaimon Bosch
The need for energy-awareness in current data centers has encouraged the use of power modeling to estimate their power consumption. However, existing models present noticeable limitations, which make them application-dependent, platform-dependent, inaccurate, or computationally complex. In this paper, we propose a platform-and application-agnostic methodology for full-system power modeling in heterogeneous data centers that overcomes those limitations. It derives a single model per platform, which works with high accuracy for heterogeneous applications with different patterns of resource usage and energy consumption, by systematically selecting a minimum set of resource usage indicators and extracting complex relations among them that capture the impact on energy consumption of all the resources in the system. We demonstrate our methodology by generating power models for heterogeneous platforms with very different power consumption profiles. Our validation experiments with real Cloud applications show that such models provide high accuracy (around 5% of average estimation error).

Abstract. Generative adversarial networks (GANs) are one of the most popular models capable of producing high-quality images. However, most of the works generate images from the vector of random values, without explicit control of desired output properties. We study the ways of introducing such control for the user-selected region of interest (RoI). First, we overview and analyze the existing works in areas of image completion (inpainting) and controllable generation. Second, we propose our model based on GANs, which united approaches from the two mentioned areas, for the controllable local content generation. Third, we evaluate the controllability of our model on three accessible datasets – Celeba, Cats, and Cars – and give numerical and visual results of our method.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Modules for reusable and collaborative modeling of biological mathematical systems
1. 3rd IEEE Track on Collaborative Modelling and Simulation – CoMetS 12
Modules for Reusable and
Collaborative Modelling of
Mathematical Biological Systems
Mandeep Gill, Steve McKeever, David Gavaghan
mandeep.gill@cs.ox.ac.uk
2. Overview
● Biological and Cardiac Modelling
● Ode DSL
● Collaborative Model Reuse
● Modules
● Model Module Repositories
● Partial Results
● Summary
3. Biological Modelling
● Overall goal to model entire human body, from
genomic level upto organ and body level in an
integrative manner
– DNA, Protein, Cellular Compartments, Cells,
Tissue, Organs, Entire Body
● Several major aims, including,
– Increased understanding of biological processes
– Personalised medicine and treatment
– In-silico experiments into disease and drug function
4. Biological Modelling
● Individual models are painstakingly derived from
multiple sets of experimental data, from multiple
disciplines, even across multiple species in a
collaborative process
● Requires a knowledge and research in a variety of
disciplines from multiple users utilising a range of
modelling approaches
– Physiologists
– Biologists / Biochemists
– Mathematicians
– Software Engineers / Computer Scientists
5. Biological Modelling
● Typically model from a continuous, deterministic
perspective, using ODEs and PDEs
– i.e. Cell cycles, signalling pathways, cardiac
electrophysiology
● Our research is focused on cardiac modelling as it is
highly developed with a range of specific models
backed by experimental data
● Cardiac diseases and disorders comprise one of the
largest sets of health risks in the Western world
6. Cardiac Modelling
● Computational modelling of the electrical and
mechanical activity of the heart is recognised as a
powerful technique in the detailed investigation of
cardiac behaviour
– Particularly in respect to modelling disease and
the effects of drugs on cardiac function
● Cardiac cell models typically investigate electrical
changes during an action potential
– These are governed by the function of ion
channels within the cell
– Flow of charged ions within capacitative
membrane causes changes in cellular potential
7. Cardiac Modelling
● We traditionally model cardiac function at multiple
levels
– Cellular level, treated as spatially homogeneous
entity and modelled using ODEs
– Tissue level and organ level, using PDEs
● Simulation complex, solvers specific to each model
● Simulation extremely computationally intensive
– Modern cell models can require 20min
– Whole organ models can require 9min to simulate
100ms of rabbit ventricular activity
● Utilising a 2048-core computer cluster
10. Ode DSL
● DSL for developing mathematical (cardiac) biological
cell models
● Features
– Numbers, Booleans, Functions, structures and
mathematical operators
– Direct support for ODEs (potentially DAEs)
– Syntax similar to Python and MATLAB
– Based on sound, computational foundation
– Support for model validation and model reuse
11. Ode DSL Aims and Goals
● Enable rapid model construction and prototyping
● Executable model specification
● Facilitate model reuse and collaborative development
● Ease of use for non-programmers
● Specific support for biological modelling
● High simulation performance
● Investigation into multi-scale APIs/integration
12. Model Validation - Type System
● Ode is type checked statically during compilation to
enforce correctness of model equations
– i.e. checks nonsensical statements,
– 5 + True // error
● This ensures that a valid model may always be
simulated successfully
– although makes no guarantees regarding the
correctness of the results
● Type information is used to guide optimisations during
implementation
13. Model Validation - Units System
● Many models of physical systems are expressed in
terms of units-of-measure
– type-system extended to support static checking of
units
– speed : m/s = 100m / 10s
● Units can be created within the model and assigned to
values
– used to check that all equations are dimensionally
consistent
● Algorithm can infer the correct units in many cases,
● Where proven safe, the system can automatically
convert between units of the same dimension
14. Collaborative Model Reuse
● Models are continuously developed and improved
from,
– newer experimental research and data
– previous models and simulations
● More complex, integrative models derived from the
composition of existing, smaller models, e.g.
– Cardiac models derived from multiple ion channel
models
– 2D and 3D tissue and whole organ models derived
from finite element method and single cell models
● Require a mechanism to reuse models within DSL
15. Collaborative Model Reuse
● Cardiac models have gone from 2 channels with 4
ODEs to over 11 channels with 60 ODEs to describe
the same cell type within a species
● We can consider the single cell model as composed
from multiple independent channels
16. Collaborative Model Reuse
● From modelling perspective, can consider each
individual component as implementing an interface
● This interface is then utilised by the structure/cell to
comprise the final model
● Providing these components exhibit the same
interface, they may be,
– developed by multiple users
– replaced by different implementations
– altered to investigate differing model properties
● Effect of drugs on well-known models
17. Modules
● The idea of reusable, composed components shown in
the cell model is encapsulated with a flexible module
system
– enables sharing/reuse within and between models
– leads to repository of reusable model components
● Module system allows grouping logically related model
components into an connected, independent structure
● Type system used to generate a signature for the
module that forms its interface
– ensures module may be correctly used and
composed
19. Parameterised Modules
● Allows a module to take user-defined modules as
parameters
● Increases module flexibility and enables specialisation
by module users
● Type system ensures safe module composition,
checks all implementations exhibit same interface
module CardiacModel(KChannel) {
Potassium Parameterised // as before...
Channel #1 Cardiac }

20. Module Repositories
● Modules may be contained within repositories
● Multiple repository hierarchies may be enabled by
the modeller and utilised within the simulation
environment
● Modules are referenced by a unique name derived
from location within the repository directory structure
Repo1/Cardiac/HH58.ode
module SodiumChannel {...}
...
Name
import Repo1.Cardiac.HH58.SodiumChannel
21. Module Repositories
● When backed by version control software a
repository can form a collaborative environment
– Multiple users can create, modify and share
modules
● Simulation-time type and units system ensures
integrity of modules and their valid composition
– Invalid modules easily detected
● Intend to have multiple repositories for differing
biological modelling domains
– Including a canonical model repository
22. Model Repositories – Future areas
● Semantic Metadata
– quality, correctness, origins, ontologies
● Web interface to repository
● Best Practices
– i.e. Module naming and name-spacing
– Recommended interfaces for known entities
● Dependencies
– Intra- and Inter-repository
– Automatic retrieval of dependencies
● Some of these handled by CellML
– XML language for biological model curation
23. (Partial) Results
● We are using DSL to create several human cardiac
cell models that share a common lineage
● Use module features to parametrise modules through
ion channels into reusable components with common
interface
● Intend to simulate ad-hoc model variants derived
from module composition in order to investigate
parameter differences and relate to initial
experimental data
● Intend to simulate models utilising custom high-
performance GPU-based simulation engine
24. Summary
● DSL created to enable rapid prototyping of models
(and high-performance simulation)
● Modularisation enables development by multiple
parties within an interdisciplinary field
● Modules may be reused, composed and customised
within more complex models
– Usage validated by strong type and units-checking
present at the module interfaces
● Module repositories combined with a version control
system enable both collaborative and centralised
development
