Companion of the 2022 ACM/SPEC International Conference on Performance Engineering
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ICPE'22 is in the past, and for the first time the conference's companion proceedings are published in form of post-conference proceedings. The main motivation of this was to give authors of workshop or short papers an opportunity to improve their archived research papers based on discussions during the conference. This post-proceedings collect material for the following tracks: Work-in-Progress and Vision Track: The work-in-progress and vision track this year was organized by Cristina L. Abad. The goal of this track was for attendees to present, and get feedback on, early ideas. Two papers were accepted in this track. Poster and Demonstrations Track: Christoph Laaber and Wen Xia headed the poster and demonstrations track. Four papers were accepted and presented in a special session on the first conference day. Tutorials: Under the leadership of David Daly and Shuibing He, three high-quality tutorials were organized at the conference this year: - "Optimizing the Performance of Fog Computing Environments Using AI and Co-Simulation", by Shreshth Tuli and Giuliano Casale - "Automated Benchmarking of cloud-hosted DBMS with benchANT", by Daniel Seybold and Jörg Domaschka - "SPEC Server Efficiency Benchmark Development - How to Contribute to the Future of Energy Conservation", by Maximilian Meissner, Klaus-Dieter Lange, Jeremy Arnold, Sanjay Sharma, Roger Tipley, Nishant Rawtani, David Reiner, Mike Petrich, Aaron Cragin Data Challenge Track: The first data challenge track ever at ICPE was organized by Cor-Paul Bezemer (University of Alberta), David Daly (MongoDB) and Weiyi Shang (Concordia University), with the support of 5 PC members. In this track, an industrial performance dataset was provided by MongoDB. The participants were invited to come up with research questions about the dataset, and study those. The challenge was open-ended: participants can choose the research questions that they find most interesting. The data challenge track accepted 4 short papers, in which the proposed approaches and/or tools and their findings are discussed.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
