Blockchain technology is characterized by its distributed, decentralized, and immutable ledger system which serves as a fundamental platform for managing smart contract transactions (SCTs). However, these SCTs undergo sequential validation within a block which introduces performance bottlenecks in blockchain. In response, this paper introduces a framework called the Multi-Bin parallel Scheduler (MBPS) designed for parallelizing blockchain smart contract transactions to leverage the capabilities of multicore systems. Our proposed framework facilitates concurrent execution of SCTs, enhancing performance by allowing non-conflicting transactions to be processed simultaneously while preserving deterministic order. The framework comprises of three vital stages: conflict detection, bin creation, and execution. We conducted an evaluation of our MBPS framework in Hyperledger Sawtooth v1.2.6, revealing substantial performance enhancements compared to existing parallel SCT execution frameworks across various smart contract applications. This research contributes to the ongoing optimization efforts in blockchain technology demonstrating its potential for scalability and efficiency in real-world scenarios.

distributed Learning is pivotal for training extensive deep neural networks across multiple nodes, leveraging parallel computation to hasten the learning process. However, it faces challenges in communication efficiency and resource utilization. Asynchronous Quantized Stochastic Gradient Descent (AQSGD) addresses communication bottlenecks by updating quantized model parameters, thereby expediting training and reducing bandwidth usage. Yet, current stochastic quantization methods may inadequately capture varied gradient distributions, leading to accumulated biases and amplified quantization errors. These issues are amplified as the number of distributed nodes grows. This study proposes a novel Stochastic Quantization with Multivariate Gaussians (SQMG) for distributed machine learning. SQMG employs a multivariate Gaussian model to represent the relationships in the gradient updates for quantization. The SQMG approach allows for constructing an optimized quantization target space, coupled with an iterative mapping scheme that effectively projects the parameters onto this space while minimizing quantization errors. Experiments on DNN and CNN models for MNIST and CIFAR-10 show that SQMG increases accuracy by 0.92% and 1.54% for DNN and CNN models, respectively, compared to conventional quantization methods. The results validate SQMG's ability to reduce quantization errors and improve model accuracy in distributed learning systems.

In the field of real-time analytics, stream joins are the basis for complex queries and greatly affect system performance. In order to satisfy the real-time requirements of streaming applications, the system imposes high requirements on the latency and throughput of the stream join operator. In this paper, we model the latency and throughput of distributed stream join systems based on queuing theory. Based on the analysis of this model, we demonstrate the impact of indexing-related overhead on the latency and throughput of stream join systems and propose a new distributed stream join system, SepJoin, which is oriented to the hash join problem. SepJoin reduces the number of tuples stored in each processing unit belonging to each input stream by designing a novel partitioning scheme that uses as many processing units as possible to store tuples belonging to each input stream, thereby reducing the index-related overhead of each processing unit when performing join operations and ultimately achieving performance benefits in terms of latency and throughput. We provide both theoretical analysis and extensive experimental evaluations to evaluate the processing latency and max throughput of SepJoin.

The increasing quality and availability of Quantum Processing Units (QPUs) is fueling a growing interest in quantum computing across many technological areas. The resulting increase in demand for QPU resources necessitates Quantum Computing as a Service (QCaaS) providers to support a high throughput of quantum workloads. A major runtime bottleneck in current QCaaS software stacks is the computationally-intensive compilation step which requires significant compute. To address this, Oxford Quantum Circuits has introduced distributed compilation whereby quantum programs are compiled in parallel and stored until the QPU is available. This has replaced our previous serial compilation approach where each program was compiled immediately prior to execution. From experiments using our production compilers and a simulated backend representing the QPU, we show that distributed compilation has resulted in a 78% reduction in processing time as compared to serial compilation. This demonstrates that there are sizeable performance gains to program throughput attainable through the introduction of distributed compilation into a QCaaS architecture. We posit that the usefulness of this feature will only grow given the increasing complexity of quantum programs and the growing popularity of quantum -classical hybrid algorithms.
