We consider a large distributed service system consisting of $n$ homogeneous servers with infinite capacity FIFO queues. Jobs arrive as a Poisson process of rate $\lambda n/k_n$ (for some positive constant $\lambda$ and integer $k_n$). Each…

Large-scale pre-trained language models have achieved impressive results on a wide range of downstream tasks recently. However, fine-tuning an extremely large-scale pre-trained language model on limited target datasets is often plagued by…

Minimizing job scheduling time is a fundamental issue in data center networks that has been extensively studied in recent years. The incoming jobs require different CPU and memory units, and span different number of time slots. The…

The emerging large-scale and data-hungry algorithms require the computations to be delegated from a central server to several worker nodes. One major challenge in the distributed computations is to tackle delays and failures caused by the…

Modern data centers serve workloads which are capable of exploiting parallelism. When a job parallelizes across multiple servers it will complete more quickly, but jobs receive diminishing returns from being allocated additional servers.…

Training a deep neural network (DNN) requires substantial computational and memory requirements. It is common to use multiple devices to train a DNN to reduce the overall training time. There are several choices to parallelize each layer in…
