ErrorPrism: Reconstructing Error Propagation Paths in Cloud Service Systems
Reliability management in cloud service systems is challenging due to the cascading effect of failures. Error wrapping, a practice prevalent in modern microservice development, enriches errors with context at each layer of the function call stack, constructing an error chain that describes a failure from its technical origin to its business impact. However, this also presents a significant traceability problem when recovering the complete error propagation path from the final log message back t…

Integrated broadband optical isolator via dynamic rotating destructive interference
Photonic integrated circuits route and shape light on a chip, but back-reflections feed back into coherent on-chip lasers, destabilizing operation and corrupting signals. Robust operation requires an integrated optical isolator that strongly suppresses backward propagation while maintaining low-loss, broadband forward transmission. However, prior on-chip isolators rely on magneto-optic materials or resonance-based filters, which respectively demand non-standard processes or inherently constrain…

Statistical Multiport-Network Modeling and Efficient Discrete Optimization of RIS
This Letter fills the research gap on physics-consistent optimization for reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) with mutual coupling (MC) and 1-bit-tunable elements, a common hardware constraint in existing RIS prototypes. We compare a model-based method (temperature-annealed back-propagation) and model-agnostic methods (coordinate descent, genetic algorithm), and evaluate potential benefits of intelligently initializing these methods. To facilitate our evaluation, we introduce a technique…

Root Cause Analysis of Outliers in Unknown Cyclic Graphs
We study the propagation of outliers in cyclic causal graphs with linear structural equations, tracing them back to one or several "root cause" nodes. We show that it is possible to identify a short list of potential root causes provided that the perturbation is sufficiently strong and propagates according to the same structural equations as in the normal mode. This shortlist consists of the true root causes together with those of its parents lying on a cycle with the root cause. Notably, our m…

Designing Coherent Optical Environment for Dynamic Optical Manipulation with a Simple Control Beam
We propose a framework for designing coherent optical environments that enable versatile and dynamic optical manipulation. In contrast to conventional material-based near-field platforms, our approach employs a structured coherent light field -- optimized via a back-propagation-based inverse design algorithm -- as the manipulation environment. This light-based platform allows a simple control beam, such as a single plane wave or a low-numerical-aperture Gaussian beam, to steer micro-objects eff…
