| Abstract: | : | From autonomous vehicles to hybrid cloud and mainframe systems, Reliability, Availability and Serviceability (RAS) is fast becoming a first-class consideration alongside performance and energy-optimal execution in the design and functioning of the constituent processors. This has resulted in an increased push towards Efficient Resilience as the predominant design paradigm for these processors. In this talk, I shall explore methodologies and techniques for realizing Efficient Resilience, with a focus on key hardware enablers for accelerating AI applications. I shall examine these different technologies in the context of server class and mainframe processors, as well as Systems-on-Chip (SoCs) targeted at cloud-backed edge applications such as connected autonomous vehicles. Finally, I shall explore the intersection of reliability and security considerations in computing systems, with a focus such as privacy-preserving machine learning paradigms such as Fully Homomorphic Encryption. |
