As AI inference becomes mainstream, research has begun to focus on improving the energy consumption of inference servers. Inference kernels commonly underutilize a GPU's compute resources and waste power from idling components. To improve…

Energy system optimization models are increasing in scope and resolution, yielding large and challenging linear programs. For a long time, the standard way to address such problems has relied on shared-memory interior-point methods (IPM),…

Spike and Slab priors have been of much recent interest in signal processing as a means of inducing sparsity in Bayesian inference. Applications domains that benefit from the use of these priors include sparse recovery, regression and…

Solving constrained nonlinear programs (NLPs) is of great importance in various domains such as power systems, robotics, and wireless communication networks. One widely used approach for addressing NLPs is the interior point method (IPM).…

The Simplex tableau has been broadly used and investigated in the industry and academia. With the advent of the big data era, ever larger problems are posed to be solved in ever larger machines whose architecture type did not exist in the…

Floor planning is an important and difficult task in architecture. When planning office buildings, rooms that belong to the same organisational unit should be placed close to each other. This leads to the following NP-hard mathematical…

Sparse linear algebra kernels play a critical role in numerous applications, covering from exascale scientific simulation to large-scale data analytics. Offloading linear algebra kernels on one GPU will no longer be viable in these…

Temporal Knowledge Graph (TKG) forecasting is crucial for predicting future events using historical data. With the surge of Large Language Models (LLMs), recent studies have begun exploring their integration into TKG forecasting and…

Large language model (LLM) training and finetuning are often bottlenecked by limited GPU memory. While existing projection-based optimization methods address this by projecting gradients into a lower-dimensional subspace to reduce optimizer…

Architectures with multiple classes of memory media are becoming a common part of mainstream supercomputer deployments. So called multi-level memories offer differing characteristics for each memory component including variation in…

Sparse matrix operations involve a large number of zero operands which makes most of the operations redundant. The amount of redundancy magnifies when a matrix operation repeatedly executes on sparse data. Optimizing matrix operations for…

Graph algorithms and techniques are increasingly being used in scientific and commercial applications to express relations and explore large data sets. Although conventional or commodity computer architectures, like CPU or GPU, can compute…

Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable performance across a wide range of language processing tasks. However, this success comes at the cost of substantial computation and memory requirements, which significantly impedes…

Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) recurrent networks are frequently used for tasks involving time-sequential data such as speech recognition. Unlike previous LSTM accelerators that either exploit spatial weight sparsity or temporal activation…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications, such as Large Language Models, are primarily driven and executed by Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). These GPU programs (kernels) consume substantial amounts of energy, yet software developers…

We consider the problem of accurate sparse fine-tuning of large language models (LLMs), that is, fine-tuning pretrained LLMs on specialized tasks, while inducing sparsity in their weights. On the accuracy side, we observe that standard…

Designing efficient and scalable sparse linear algebra kernels on modern multi-GPU based HPC systems is a daunting task due to significant irregular memory references and workload imbalance across the GPUs. This is particularly the case for…

Domain-specific systems-on-chip, a class of heterogeneous many-core systems, are recognized as a key approach to narrow down the performance and energy-efficiency gap between custom hardware accelerators and programmable processors.…
