Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications based on Deep Neural Networks (DNN) or Deep Learning (DL) have become popular due to their success in solving problems likeimage analysis and speech recognition. Training a DNN is computationally intensive and High Performance Computing(HPC) has been a key driver in AI growth. Virtualisation and container technology have led to the convergence of cloud and HPC infrastructure. These infrastructures with diverse hardware increase the complexity of deploying and optimising AI training workloads.

Deep Leaning and code embedding based approach to linguistic detecting anti-patterns in Infrastructure as code. This is from SODALITE smell and defect prediction task.

Journal of 2020 IEEE International Conference on Software Architecture (ICSA) pp. 103-113 The work presents a scalable architecture for controlling heterogenous systems. The architecture exploits containers and provides multiple levels of control (container, VM, cluster). A prototype based on Kubernetes is also presented and evaluated.

10th International Conference on Web Intelligence, Mining and Semantics (WIMS) This paper presents our (SODALITE) knowledge-driven approach enabling developers to identify the smells in deployment descriptions /infrastructure codes. We detect smells with SPARQL-based rules over pattern-based OWL 2 knowledge graphs capturing deployment models.

Journal of Software: Practice and Experience Volume49, Issue5, May 2019 Pages 813-839 The work presented in the mentioned paper reflects the state of art in multi-tenant cloud applications and microservices. It supported the preparation of the SODALITE proposal. The deployment refactoring task in the SODALITE adopts and extends the findings of the paper. Moreover, SODALITE case studies use microservice-based architectures. As the paper is a journal paper, no travel expenses have been claimed.
