Dot Net CLR Performance considerations while Architecting

Performance considerations while architecting dot net applications.
  1. Throwing Few Exceptions : 
    • Avoid exceptions with in loops.
    • Minimal use of functions like Response.Redirect() which throws a ThreadAbort exception.
    • COM usage could result in HRESULTS exception, make sure to track these.
    • Usages of ValueTypes where ever possible, rather using Reference types that is classes. Avoiding boxing and un-boxing for best use of memory.
    • Reduce interaction with unmanaged code. COM interop is much more expensive.The following steps needs to be taken while interacting with unmanaged code.
      • Data Marshalling
      • fix calling convention
      • Protect callee-saved registeres
      • Switch thread mode so that GC won't block unmanaged threads
      • Erect an Exception Handling frame on calls into managed code
      • Handle threading properly
    • Use For loop for string iteration. For loop on strings is five times faster than Foreach.
    • StringBuilder for complex string manipulation increases performance.
    • System.IO buffer size could be between 4KB and 8KB for best performance
    • Asynchronous IO when applied correctly, it gives as much as ten times the performance.

    ABOD and its PyOD python module

    Angle based detection By  Hans-Peter Kriegel, Matthias Schubert, Arthur Zimek  Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München  Oettingenstr. 67, 80538 München, Germany Ref Link PyOD By  Yue Zhao   Zain Nasrullah   Department of Computer Science, University of Toronto, Toronto, ON M5S 2E4, Canada  Zheng Li jk  Northeastern University Toronto, Toronto, ON M5X 1E2, Canada I am combining two papers to summarize Anomaly detection. First one is Angle Based Outlier Detection (ABOD) and other one is python module that  uses ABOD along with over 20 other apis (PyOD) . This is third part in the series of Anomaly detection. First article exhibits survey that covered length and breadth of subject, Second article highlighted on data preparation and pre-processing.  Angle Based Outlier Detection. Angles are more stable than distances in high dimensional spaces for example the popularity of cosine-based sim...

    DEEP LEARNING FOR ANOMALY DETECTION: A SURVEY

    -By  Raghavendra Chalapathy  University of Sydney,  Capital Markets Co-operative Research Centre (CMCRC)  Sanjay Chawla  Qatar Computing Research Institute (QCRI),  HBKU  Paper Link Anomaly detection also known as outlier detection is the identification of rare items, events or observations which raise suspicions by differing significantly from the majority of the data. Typically the anomalous items will translate to some kind of problem such as bank fraud, a structural defect, medical problems or errors in a text. Anomalies are also referred to as outliers, novelties, noise, deviations and exceptions Hawkins defines an outlier as an observation that deviates so significantly from other observations as to arouse suspicion that it was generated by a different mechanism. Aim of this paper is two-fold, First is a structured and comprehensive overview of research methods in deep learning-based anomaly detection. Further...

    Cybersecurity Threats in Connected and Automated Vehicles based Federated Learning Systems

      Ranwa Al Mallah , Godwin Badu-Marfo , Bilal Farooq image Courtesy: Comparitech Abstract Federated learning (FL) is a machine learning technique that aims at training an algorithm across decentralized entities holding their local data private. Wireless mobile networks allow users to communicate with other fixed or mobile users. The road traffic network represents an infrastructure-based configuration of a wireless mobile network where the Connected and Automated Vehicles (CAV) represent the communicating entities. Applying FL in a wireless mobile network setting gives rise to a new threat in the mobile environment that is very different from the traditional fixed networks. The threat is due to the intrinsic characteristics of the wireless medium and is caused by the characteristics of the vehicular networks such as high node-mobility and rapidly changing topology. Most cyber defense techniques depend on highly reliable and connected networks. This paper explores falsified informat...
