Computation Offloading Designs for Autonomous Drone Swarms

Project Period 01.01.2021-12.31.2022
Principal Investigator in Germany Prof. Dr. Jian-Jia Chen
Principal Investigator abroad Prof. Guthemberg Silvestre
Institution abroad Ecole Nationale de l'Aviation Civile (ENAC)
Project Members in Germany Dr.-Ing. Kuan-Hsun Chen, Niklas Ueter, Junjie Shi, Abdur Rehman

Project Description

This joint project aims to propose novel techniques for emerging services on swarms of autonomous drones while considering the resource constraints. We intend to focus our efforts to design, evaluate and integrate suitable computation offloading techniques on top of edge resources of drones. In order to pursue these challenging goals, we should conduct interdisciplinary, collaborative research, which includes open research problems in mobile computing, cyber-physical systems, multi-objective optimization, dynamic schedule and adaptive edge strategies.
 

ACCo-DT: Application and Compilation Co-design for Decision Trees

Project Period 01.01.2021-12.31.2022
Principal Investigator in Germany Dr.-Ing. Kuan-Hsun Chen
Principal Investigator abroad Prof. Jenq-Kuen Lee
Institution abroad National Tsing Hua University (NTHU)
Project Members in Germany Christian Hakert, Prof. Dr. Jian-Jia Chen

Project Description

This joint project aims to provides software solutions to study the interplay of application and compilation and form a joint research project to explore the opportunities of joint optimization methods for Decision Trees and relevant machine learning applications.

Since effect of different synthesis methods is eventually carried out by the underlying compilation. Any careless optimization on the application layer may be mitigated or even masked by the inherent compilation principles. In contrast, an ad-hoc compilation optimization may not be affected if the execution pattern of applications can not be recognized.
