Congratulations @WangChangjie13 on receiving the 2025 Applied Networking research prize for our NetConfEval work! 🏆 Now, let’s work on making LLMs also reliable and sustainable for code generation! 🚀 irtf.org/anrp/

1/3 At CoNEXT ’24, @Skazza_94 presented our FAJITA paper for running stateful network functions at very high rates (~1.4 Tbps). PDF + video are at the @ERC_Research CoG ULTRA blog post below. Click below to see something perhaps unexpected in this work. bit.ly/4g63His

I am continuing to look for two more PhD students who wish to work with us on creating a dramatically more energy efficient and cheaper platform for AI inferencing (deadline Jan 17, 2025): kth.se/lediga-jobb/768308?l=… 1/3

We discovered that: - Chasing a single pointer on a CPU may cost you 10 Mpps - Many NF chains retrieve flow states based on different packet header fields, breaking the "exclusive memory access" guarantees of high-speed multi-core CPUs In our CoNEXT'24 paper... (see comments)

We show that FAJITA can process up to 170Mpps with an NF consisting of a flow counter +a rate limiter and a load balancer. We then show how to improve by 50% the throughput of NF chains that match on different fields of the header, processing up to 90Mpps.

After all these OpenAI and Google announcements is there anything left for us academics to work on? Definitely! Three PhD student openings for working on a dramatically more energy efficient platform for AI inferencing: kth.se/lediga-jobb/720350?l=…

Do large language models facilitate network configuration? We investigate opportunities and challenges in operating network systems using LLMs in our accepted ACM CoNEXT'24 paper. Thanks, @WangChangjie13 @Skazza_94 @alirezafarshin @si_ferlin @dmkostic. More info in the comments.

We are looking for multiple postdocs who want to work with us on pushing the boundary of knowledge when it comes to building Networked Systems for Machine Learning. We offer a large degree of academic freedom and top experimental research infrastructure. kth.varbi.com/en/what:job/jo…
