In recent years, to sustain the resource-intensive computational needs for training deep neural networks (DNNs), it is widely accepted that exploiting the parallelism in large-scale computing clusters is critical for the efficient deployments of DNN training jobs. However, existing resource schedulers for traditional computing clusters are not well suited for DNN training, which results in unsatisfactory job completion time performance. The limitations of these resource scheduling schemes motivate us to propose a new computing cluster resource scheduling framework that is able to leverage the special layered structure of DNN jobs and significantly improve their job completion times. Our contributions in this paper are three-fold: i) We develop a new resource scheduling analytical model by considering DNNs layered structure, which enables us to analytically formulate the resource scheduling optimization problem for DNN training in computing clusters; ii) Based on the proposed performance analytical model, we then develop an efficient resource scheduling algorithm based on the widely adopted parameter-server architecture using a sum-of-ratios multi-dimensional-knapsack decomposition (SMD) method to offer strong performance guarantee; iii) We conduct extensive numerical experiments to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed schedule algorithm and its superior performance over the state of the art.

High-performance computing (HPC) is undergoing significant changes. Next generation HPC systems are equipped with diverse global and local resources, such as I/O burst buffer resources, memory resources (e.g., on-chip and off-chip RAM, external RAM/N VRA), network resources, and possibly other resources. Job schedulers play a crucial role in efficient use of resources. However, traditional job schedulers are single-objective and fail to efficient use of other resources. In this paper, we propose ROME, a novel multi-dimensional job scheduling framework to explore potential tradeoffs among multiple resources and provides balanced scheduling decision. Our design leverages genetic algorithm as the multi-dimensional optimization engine to generate fast scheduling decision and to support effective resource utilization.
Deep neural networks (DNNs) sustain high performance in todays data processing applications. DNN inference is resource-intensive thus is difficult to fit into a mobile device. An alternative is to offload the DNN inference to a cloud server. However, such an approach requires heavy raw data transmission between the mobile device and the cloud server, which is not suitable for mission-critical and privacy-sensitive applications such as autopilot. To solve this problem, recent advances unleash DNN services using the edge computing paradigm. The existing approaches split a DNN into two parts and deploy the two partitions to computation nodes at two edge computing tiers. Nonetheless, these methods overlook collaborative device-edge-cloud computation resources. Besides, previous algorithms demand the whole DNN re-partitioning to adapt to computation resource changes and network dynamics. Moreover, for resource-demanding convolutional layers, prior works do not give a parallel processing strategy without loss of accuracy at the edge side. To tackle these issues, we propose D3, a dynamic DNN decomposition system for synergistic inference without precision loss. The proposed system introduces a heuristic algorithm named horizontal partition algorithm to split a DNN into three parts. The algorithm can partially adjust the partitions at run time according to processing time and network conditions. At the edge side, a vertical separation module separates feature maps into tiles that can be independently run on different edge nodes in parallel. Extensive quantitative evaluation of five popular DNNs illustrates that D3 outperforms the state-of-the-art counterparts up to 3.4 times in end-to-end DNN inference time and reduces backbone network communication overhead up to 3.68 times.
We show that DNN accelerator micro-architectures and their program mappings represent specific choices of loop order and hardware parallelism for computing the seven nested loops of DNNs, which enables us to create a formal taxonomy of all existing d ense DNN accelerators. Surprisingly, the loop transformations needed to create these hardware variants can be precisely and concisely represented by Halides scheduling language. By modifying the Halide compiler to generate hardware, we create a system that can fairly compare these prior accelerators. As long as proper loop blocking schemes are used, and the hardware can support mapping replicated loops, many different hardware dataflows yield similar energy efficiency with good performance. This is because the loop blocking can ensure that most data references stay on-chip with good locality and the processing units have high resource utilization. How resources are allocated, especially in the memory system, has a large impact on energy and performance. By optimizing hardware resource allocation while keeping throughput constant, we achieve up to 4.2X energy improvement for Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), 1.6X and 1.8X improvement for Long Short-Term Memories (LSTMs) and multi-layer perceptrons (MLPs), respectively.
As the gap between compute and I/O performance tends to grow, modern High-Performance Computing (HPC) architectures include a new resource type: an intermediate persistent fast memory layer, called burst buffers. This is just one of many kinds of ren ewable resources which are orthogonal to the processors themselves, such as network bandwidth or software licenses. Ignoring orthogonal resources while making scheduling decisions just for processors may lead to unplanned delays of jobs of which resource requirements cannot be immediately satisfied. We focus on a classic problem of makespan minimization for parallel-machine scheduling of independent sequential jobs with additional requirements on the amount of a single renewable orthogonal resource. We present an easily-implementable log-linear algorithm that we prove is $2frac56$-approximation. In simulation experiments, we compare our algorithm to standard greedy list-scheduling heuristics and show that, compared to LPT, resource-based algorithms generate significantly shorter schedules.
As the quantity and complexity of information processed by software systems increase, large-scale software systems have an increasing requirement for high-performance distributed computing systems. With the acceleration of the Internet in Web 2.0, Cl oud computing as a paradigm to provide dynamic, uncertain and elastic services has shown superiorities to meet the computing needs dynamically. Without an appropriate scheduling approach, extensive Cloud computing may cause high energy consumptions and high cost, in addition that high energy consumption will cause massive carbon dioxide emissions. Moreover, inappropriate scheduling will reduce the service life of physical devices as well as increase response time to users request. Hence, efficient scheduling of resource or optimal allocation of request, that usually a NP-hard problem, is one of the prominent issues in emerging trends of Cloud computing. Focusing on improving quality of service (QoS), reducing cost and abating contamination, researchers have conducted extensive work on resource scheduling problems of Cloud computing over years. Nevertheless, growing complexity of Cloud computing, that the super-massive distributed system, is limiting the application of scheduling approaches. Machine learning, a utility method to tackle problems in complex scenes, is used to resolve the resource scheduling of Cloud computing as an innovative idea in recent years. Deep reinforcement learning (DRL), a combination of deep learning (DL) and reinforcement learning (RL), is one branch of the machine learning and has a considerable prospect in resource scheduling of Cloud computing. This paper surveys the methods of resource scheduling with focus on DRL-based scheduling approaches in Cloud computing, also reviews the application of DRL as well as discusses challenges and future directions of DRL in scheduling of Cloud computing.
