We present MegaTrain, a memory-centric system that efficiently trains 100B+ parameter large language models at full precision on a single GPU. Unlike traditional GPU-centric systems, MegaTrain stores parameters and optimizer states in host…

Nowadays, the paradigm of parallel computing is changing. CUDA is now a popular programming model for general purpose computations on GPUs and a great number of applications were ported to CUDA obtaining speedups of orders of magnitude…

GPUs have limited memory and it is difficult to train wide and/or deep models that cause the training process to go out of memory. It is shown in this paper how an open source tool called Large Model Support (LMS) can utilize a high…

We study parallel algorithms for the minimization of Deterministic Finite Automata (DFAs). In particular, we implement four different massively parallel algorithms on Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). Our results confirm the expectations…

Modern GPUs are able to perform significantly more arithmetic operations than transfers of a single word to or from global memory. Hence, many GPU kernels are limited by memory bandwidth and cannot exploit the arithmetic power of GPUs.…

Online continual learning (CL) aims to learn new knowledge and consolidate previously learned knowledge from non-stationary data streams. Due to the time-varying training setting, the model learned from a changing distribution easily…

Large language models (LLMs) require enormous computing power to pretrain on massive datasets. When limited datasets are available, smaller-sized LLMs are better choice to pretrain (on user-specified datasets) by following the scaling laws…

Graph partitioning, a well studied problem of parallel computing has many applications in diversified fields such as distributed computing, social network analysis, data mining and many other domains. In this paper, we introduce FGPGA, an…

Large language models have been widely adopted across different tasks, but their auto-regressive generation nature often leads to inefficient resource utilization during inference. While batching is commonly used to increase throughput,…

Federated fine-tuning of large language models (LLMs) enables collaborative tuning across distributed clients. However, due to the large size of LLMs, local updates in federated learning (FL) may incur substantial video random-access memory…

Reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms involve the deep nesting of highly irregular computation patterns, each of which typically exhibits opportunities for distributed computation. We argue for distributing RL components in a composable…

There is an explosion of data, documents, and other content, and people require tools to analyze and interpret these, tools to turn the content into information and knowledge. Topic modeling have been developed to solve these problems.…

Deep learning models are trained on servers with many GPUs, and training must scale with the number of GPUs. Systems such as TensorFlow and Caffe2 train models with parallel synchronous stochastic gradient descent: they process a batch of…

Among the many possible approaches for the parallelization of self-organizing networks, and in particular of growing self-organizing networks, perhaps the most common one is producing an optimized, parallel implementation of the standard…

Accelerators, like GPUs, have become a trend to deliver future performance desire, and sharing the same virtual memory space between CPUs and GPUs is increasingly adopted to simplify programming. However, address translation, which is the…

We study parallel algorithms for the minimisation and equivalence checking of Deterministic Finite Automata (DFAs). Regarding DFA minimisation, we implement four different massively parallel algorithms on Graphics Processing Units~(GPUs).…

Deep learning training is an expensive process that extensively uses GPUs, but not all model training saturates modern powerful GPUs. Multi-Instance GPU (MIG) is a new technology introduced by NVIDIA that can partition a GPU to better-fit…

Evolutionary computing, particularly genetic algorithm (GA), is a combinatorial optimization method inspired by natural selection and the transmission of genetic information, which is widely used to identify optimal solutions to complex…

GigaAPI is a user-space API that simplifies multi-GPU programming, bridging the gap between the capabilities of parallel GPU systems and the ability of developers to harness their full potential. The API offers a comprehensive set of…

Scenario-based stochastic optimal control problems suffer from the curse of dimensionality as they can easily grow to six and seven figure sizes. First-order methods are suitable as they can deal with such large-scale problems, but may fail…
