Mitigating Multi-Scale Variability In Datacenters: In-Situ Physical Sensing, Proactive Thermal-Cooling Co-Management, And Symbiotic Virtualization, Gopi K. Tummala Sep 2026

Mitigating Multi-Scale Variability In Datacenters: In-Situ Physical Sensing, Proactive Thermal-Cooling Co-Management, And Symbiotic Virtualization, Gopi K. Tummala

Defensive Publications Series

As semiconductor manufacturing scales past the 32 nm threshold toward atomic-scale devices, physical variability has emerged as a paramount challenge threatening computing efficiency, system predictability, and hardware longevity in warehouse-scale datacenters. Nanoscale device scaling introduces severe process variations—such as Random Dopant Fluctuations (RDF) and Line Edge Roughness (LER)—which manifest at the architectural level as a 30% dispersion in core operating frequencies and up to a 10× disparity in sub-threshold leakage power. Compounding these static manufacturing anomalies, datacenters encounter profound dynamic environmental variability, driven by localized heat fluxes exceeding 100W/cm2 , ambient temperature fluctuations (35◦C to 45◦C in containerized and economizer-cooled …


Chesscore: A Reconfigurable Domain-Specific Architecture For Accelerating Adversarial Game-Tree Search And Heuristic Learning, Gopi K. Tummala Sep 2026

Chesscore: A Reconfigurable Domain-Specific Architecture For Accelerating Adversarial Game-Tree Search And Heuristic Learning, Gopi K. Tummala

Defensive Publications Series

Adversarial game-tree search—exemplified by classical zerosum games of perfect information such as Tic-Tac-Toe and Chess—represents a foundational benchmark for artificial intelligence and combinatorial optimization. However, executing recursive minimax algorithms with α-β pruning on generalpurpose von Neumann microprocessors suffers from crippling architectural bottlenecks: branch misprediction rates exceeding 30% during search cutoffs, serialized legal move generation, deep recursion stack thrashing, and high-latency memory stalls during transposition table lookups. This paper presents ChessCore, a reconfigurable domainspecific hardware architecture designed for high-throughput adversarial tree search and heuristic learning. Grounded in an architectural lineage originally prototyped on a resourceconstrained Xilinx Spartan-II FPGA (XC2S50 TQ144) using …


Low-Energy Conservation Cores With On-Chip Dynamic Power Management For Advanced Computations, Gopi K. Tummala Sep 2026

Low-Energy Conservation Cores With On-Chip Dynamic Power Management For Advanced Computations, Gopi K. Tummala

Defensive Publications Series

Transistor density continues to scale with advances in semiconductor manufacturing, but limits on threshold voltage scaling have brought classical Dennard power scaling to a permanent halt. The resulting technology-imposed “utilization wall” severely restricts the fraction of silicon that can be continuously operated at maximum performance, giving rise to the dark silicon phenomenon. Because reductions in per-operation energy translate directly into increased parallel throughput under fixed thermal envelopes, specialized and heterogeneous architectures have emerged as an imperative. However, conventional parallel accelerators fail when applied to irregular integer codes characterized by tight critical paths, branch-heavy control flow, and poor memory locality. This …


Compiler-Orchestrated Fine-Grained Power Gating And Asymmetric Power Islands For Tiled Spatial Microprocessors, Gopi K. Tummala Sep 2026

Compiler-Orchestrated Fine-Grained Power Gating And Asymmetric Power Islands For Tiled Spatial Microprocessors, Gopi K. Tummala

Defensive Publications Series

As semiconductor technology scales deep into nanoscale dimensions (sub-65 nm), subthreshold leakage current threatens the viability of tiled spatial microprocessors. While spatial architectures—exemplified by the MIT/UCSD RAW processor—elegantly eliminate global wire delays and expose on-chip functional units, interconnects, and pins directly to software, their massive replication of execution resources results in substantial static power waste when application workloads exhibit spatial or temporal underutilization. Traditional reactive dynamic power management (DPM) schemes, such as OS-directed ACPI states or hardware activity timers, fail in spatial architectures due to unpredictable wake-up transition penalties, loss of cycle-level synchronization across scalar operand networks (SONs), and inability …

From Dissertation To Deployment: A Unified Software Platform Operationalizing Clinical-Prediction And Sequential-Security Ai For Healthcare, Olsi Shehu, Damiana Teliti, Jasmin Kevrić, Bekir Karlik Sep 2026

From Dissertation To Deployment: A Unified Software Platform Operationalizing Clinical-Prediction And Sequential-Security Ai For Healthcare, Olsi Shehu, Damiana Teliti, Jasmin Kevrić, Bekir Karlik

Communications of the IIMA

Advances in machine learning for healthcare are abundant, yet most validated models remain confined to research notebooks and never reach secure, usable clinical software. This paper addresses that deployment gap by presenting a unified, security-hardened software platform that operationalizes two complementary streams of doctoral research inside a single, role-based hospital information system. The first stream contributes a clinical-prediction capability: an ultra-hybrid ensemble that couples a quantum-inspired feature transformation, particle-swarm feature selection, and calibrated soft voting for cancer-outcome prediction (96.41% accuracy, AUC-ROC 0.983 on TCGA-BRCA), survival stratification, multi-cancer generalization, and pharmacogenomic drug-response classification (89.31% mean accuracy across 25 compounds). The second …

Beyond The Watt: A Unified Stochastic Control And Cross-Layer Architecture For Massive Computing Infrastructure, Gopi K. Tummala Sep 2026

Beyond The Watt: A Unified Stochastic Control And Cross-Layer Architecture For Massive Computing Infrastructure, Gopi K. Tummala

Defensive Publications Series

The relentless expansion of internet-scale services, highdefinition streaming, and distributed data analytics has precipitated the emergence of mega-datacenters housing hundreds of thousands of servers. However, this growth has collided with an insurmountable power and thermal wall: over 50% of datacenters face imminent facility-level power delivery and cooling exhaustion. Underpinning this crisis is the profound energyproportionality gap in modern server architectures: enterprise servers rarely operate at peak utilization and seldom sit completely idle; instead, they spend over 75% of their operational lifecycle operating at 10–50% utilization, yet consume 50–60% of their peak rated power (“doing nothing very well”). Traditional dynamic power …

Charge Modulation Of Peptide/Nucleic Acid Complexes: An Anionic Additive Enhances Gene Silencing And Crispr/Cas9 Editing By Promoting Intracellular Nucleic Acid Release, Abdulelah Alhazza, Sorour Khayyatnejad Shoushtari, Hasan Uludag, Keykavous Parang, Hamidreza Montazeri Aliabadi

Pharmacy Faculty Articles and Research

Introduction: Small interfering RNA (siRNA) and Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated Protein 9 (Cas9) complexes are effective approaches to temporarily downregulate protein expression via post-transcription RNA interference or permanently altering protein expression via editing genomic DNA, respectively. However, the efficient delivery of these mediators to targeted cells has been challenging, largely due to their anionic and hydrophilic nature, which hinders their interaction with the cell membrane and cellular internalization. Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) exhibit dual characteristics as a carrier for nucleic acid delivery, where positively charged components bind to the negatively charged nucleic acid, and the hydrophobic components …
