Seminar • Networks and Distributed Systems RAMP: RDMA Migration Platform

Babar Naveed Memon, Master’s candidate
David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science

Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) can be used to implement a shared storage abstraction or a shared nothing abstraction for distributed applications. We argue that the shared storage abstraction is an overkill for loosely coupled applications and that the shared nothing abstraction does not leverage all the benefits of RDMA.

Conversations depend on information from the context. To go beyond one-round conversation, a chatbot must resolve contextual information such as: 1) co-reference resolution, 2) ellipsis resolution, and 3) conjunctive relationship resolution.

There are simply not enough data to avoid these problems by trying to train a sequence-to-sequence model for multi-round conversation similar to that of one-round conversation.

Please note: This seminar has been cancelled.
