Multi-label learning problems have manifested themselves in various machine learning applications. The key to successful multi-label learning algorithms lies in the exploration of inter-label correlations, which usually incur great…

Parallel split learning (PSL) suffers from two intertwined issues: the effective batch size grows with the number of clients, and data that is not identically and independently distributed (non-IID) skews global batches. We present parallel…

Object-based parallel file systems have emerged as promising storage solutions for high-performance computing (HPC) systems. Despite the fact that object storage provides a flexible interface, scheduling highly concurrent I/O requests that…

This paper investigates the network load balancing problem in data centers (DCs) where multiple load balancers (LBs) are deployed, using the multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) framework. The challenges of this problem consist of the…

Recent years have witnessed a surge in deep learning research, marked by the introduction of expansive generative models like OpenAI's SORA and GPT, Meta AI's LLAMA series, and Google's FLAN, BART, and Gemini models. However, the rapid…

The increasing complexity of deep learning models and the demand for processing vast amounts of data make the utilization of large-scale distributed systems for efficient training essential. These systems, however, face significant…

Split Federated Learning (SFL) enables scalable training on edge devices by combining the parallelism of Federated Learning (FL) with the computational offloading of Split Learning (SL). Despite its great success, SFL suffers significantly…

Large language model (LLM) training is one of the most demanding distributed computations today, often requiring thousands of GPUs with frequent synchronization across machines. Such a workload pattern makes it susceptible to stragglers,…

Synchronous federated learning (FL) scales poorly with the number of clients due to the straggler effect. Algorithms like FedAsync and GeneralizedFedAsync address this limitation by enabling asynchronous communication between clients and…

Deploying deep learning (DL) models across multiple compute devices to train large and complex models continues to grow in importance because of the demand for faster and more frequent training. Data parallelism (DP) is the most widely used…

Distributed machine learning has been widely studied in the literature to scale up machine learning model training in the presence of an ever-increasing amount of data. We study distributed machine learning from another perspective, where…

Recently, reducing communication time between machines becomes the main focus of distributed data mining. Previous methods propose to make workers do more computation locally before aggregating local solutions in the server such that fewer…

As data-intensive applications grow, batch processing in limited-resource environments faces scalability and resource management challenges. Serverless computing offers a flexible alternative, enabling dynamic resource allocation and…

In this paper we examine a formalization of feature distribution learning (FDL) in information-theoretic terms relying on the analytical approach and on the tools already used in the study of the information bottleneck (IB). It has been…

The problem of identifying intersections between two sets of d-dimensional axis-parallel rectangles appears frequently in the context of agent-based simulation studies. For this reason, the High Level Architecture (HLA) specification -- a…

Most of today's distributed machine learning systems assume {\em reliable networks}: whenever two machines exchange information (e.g., gradients or models), the network should guarantee the delivery of the message. At the same time, recent…

Distributed computing systems are well-known to suffer from the problem of slow or failed nodes; these are referred to as stragglers. Straggler mitigation (for distributed matrix computations) has recently been investigated from the…

This article presents a new high-level parallel computational model named BSF - Bulk Synchronous Farm. The BSF model extends the BSP model to deal with the compute-intensive iterative numerical methods executed on distributed-memory…

We consider straggler-resilient learning. In many previous works, e.g., in the coded computing literature, straggling is modeled as random delays that are independent and identically distributed between workers. However, in many practical…

Federated learning (FL) has recently emerged as a promising technology to enable artificial intelligence (AI) at the network edge, where distributed mobile devices collaboratively train a shared AI model under the coordination of an edge…
