Mímir: An open-source semantic search framework for interactive information seeking and discovery

Semantic search is gradually establishing itself as the next generation search paradigm, which meets better a wider range of information needs, as compared to traditional full-text search. At the same time, however, expanding search towards document structure and external, formal knowledge sources (e.g. LOD resources) remains challenging, especially with respect to efficiency, usability, and scalability.This paper introduces Mímir—an open-source framework for integrated semantic search over text, document structure, linguistic annotations, and formal semantic knowledge. Mímir supports complex structural queries, as well as basic keyword search.Exploratory search and sense-making are supported through information visualisation interfaces, such as co-occurrence matrices and term clouds. There is also an interactive retrieval interface, where users can save, refine, and analyse the results of a semantic search over time. The more well-studied precision-oriented information seeking searches are also well supported.The generic and extensible nature of the Mímir platform is demonstrated through three different, real-world applications, one of which required indexing and search over tens of millions of documents and fifty to hundred times as many semantic annotations. Scaling up to over 150 million documents was also accomplished, via index federation and cloud-based deployment.

A parallel and scalable algorithm for ADI method with pre-propagation and message vectorization

It is hard to implement the ADI method in an efficient way on distributed-memory parallel computers. We propose “P-scheme” which parallelizes a tridiagonal linear system of equations for the ADI method, but its effectiveness is limited to the cases where the problem size is large enough mainly because of the communication cost of the propagation phase of the scheme.

In order to overcome this difficulty, we propose an improved version of the P-scheme with “message vectorization” which aggregates several communication messages into one and alleviates the communication cost. Also we evaluate the effectiveness of message vectorization for the ADI method and show that the improved version of the P-scheme works well even for smaller problems and linear and super-linear speedups can be achieved for 8194 × 8194 and 16,386 × 16,386 problems, respectively.

为了解决流媒体直播在Internet中传输带宽不足、用户接入多样性等问题,本文探讨了流媒体在IP网络中一般的传输控制技术,提出了一种基于联播的流媒体实时传输控制策略以适应网络带宽的动态变化。首先通过组播方式以及RTP/RTCP协议实现流媒体的实时传输;之后对自适应传输的算法进行了详细的分析和设计,并采用多线程技术实现了网络状况监测和实时码流切换控制;最后通过研究及实验数据分析对比,证明该方案可提高多路并发流传输效率的有效性,并且可以给客户端用户带来较好的用户体验。     

Multi-tier service differentiation by coordinated learning-based resource provisioning and admission control

Multiple Internet applications are often hosted in one datacenter, sharing underlying virtualized server resources. It is important to provide differentiated treatment to co-hosted applications and to improve overall system performance by efficient use of shared resources. Challenges arise due to multi-tier service architecture, virtualized server infrastructure, and highly dynamic and bursty workloads. We propose a coordinated admission control and adaptive resource provisioning approach for multi-tier service differentiation and performance improvement in a shared virtualized platform. We develop new model-independent reinforcement learning based techniques for virtual machine (VM) auto-configuration and session based admission control. Adaptive VM auto-configuration provides proportional service differentiation between co-located applications and improves application response time simultaneously. Admission control improves session throughput of the applications and minimizes resource wastage due to aborted sessions. A shared reward actualizes coordination between the two learning modules. For system agility and scalability, we integrate the reinforcement learning approach with cascade neural networks. We have implemented the integrated approach in a virtualized blade server system hosting RUBiS benchmark applications. Experimental results demonstrate that the new approach meets differentiation targets accurately and achieves performance improvement of applications at the same time. It reacts to dynamic and bursty workloads in an agile and scalable manner.
