Although modern, AI-centric datacenters heavily rely on SmartNICs, existing devices impose a hard trade-off. Commercial SmartNICs provide high bandwidth and easy software integration, but offer limited support for customization and data processing offload. In contrast, research SmartNICs often suffer from low bandwidth, limited functionality, and poor software compatibility -- to the point that many are not actual NICs in a technical sense. This gap can be closed by treating the NIC datapath as a first-class stream computation substrate with shared hardware/software abstractions for a tight co-design of infrastructure and applications. To demonstrate this, we introduce SCENIC, an open-source datacenter SmartNIC. SCENIC implements a 200G network datapath over offloaded TCP/IP and RDMA stacks, as well as a fallback path for processing arbitrary network traffic. On top of the network logic, SCENIC combines on-datapath Stream Compute Units (SCUs) for data processing and embedded ARM cores for flexible control path manipulation with direct access to GPUs and SSDs. SCENIC is fully integrated with the OS, exposing native Linux network and RDMA verb interfaces, making the programmable datapath transparent to existing applications while enabling control of, e.g., user-defined offloads and programmable congestion control. SCENIC's performance matches commercial platforms, and we show its versatility through several use cases such as offloaded collective communication and network-to-GPU hash-based data partitioning.

We propose a metasurface antenna capable of real time holographic beam steering. An array of reconfigurable dipoeles can generate on demand far field patterns of radiation through the specific encoding of meta atomic states. i.e., the configuration of each dipole. Suitable states for the generation of the desired patterns can be identified using iteartion, but this is very slow and needs to be done for each far field pattern. Here, we present a deep learning based method for the control of a metasurface antenna with point dipole elements that vary in their state using dipole polarizability. Instead of iteration, we adopt a deep learning algorithm that combines an autoencoder with an electromagnetic scattering equation to determin the states required for a target far field pattern in real time. The scattering equation from Born approximation is used as the decoder in training the neural network, and analytic Green's function calculation is used to check the validity of Born approximation. Our learning based algorithm requires a computing time of within in 200 microseconds to determine the meta atomic states, thus enabling the real time opeartion of a holographic antenna.

This document is a document that has written procedures and methods for collecting objects and unstructured dynamic data on the road for the development of object recognition technology for self-driving cars, and outlines the methods of collecting data, annotation data, object classifier criteria, and data processing methods. On-road object and unstructured dynamic data were collected in various environments, such as weather, time and traffic conditions, and additional reception calls for police and safety personnel were collected. Finally, 100,000 images of various objects existing on pedestrians and roads, 200,000 images of police and traffic safety personnel, 5,000 images of police and traffic safety personnel, and data sets consisting of 5,000 image data were collected and built.
