As the ratio between the rate of computation and rate with which data can be retrieved from various layers of memory continues to deteriorate, a question arises: Will the current best algorithms for computing matrix-matrix multiplication on future CPUs continue to be (near) optimal? This paper provides compelling analytical and empirical evidence that the answer is no. The analytical results guide us to a new family of algorithms of which the current state-of-the-art Gotos algorithm is but one member. The empirical results, on architectures that were custom built to reduce the amount of bandwidth to main memory, show that under different circumstances, different and particular members of the family become more superior. Thus, this family will likely start playing a prominent role going forward.

Matrix multiplication (GEMM) is a core operation to numerous scientific applications. Traditional implementations of Strassen-like fast matrix multiplication (FMM) algorithms often do not perform well except for very large matrix sizes, due to the in creased cost of memory movement, which is particularly noticeable for non-square matrices. Such implementations also require considerable workspace and modifications to the standard BLAS interface. We propose a code generator framework to automatically implement a large family of FMM algorithms suitable for multiplications of arbitrary matrix sizes and shapes. By representing FMM with a triple of matrices [U,V,W] that capture the linear combinations of submatrices that are formed, we can use the Kronecker product to define a multi-level representation of Strassen-like algorithms. Incorporating the matrix additions that must be performed for Strassen-like algorithms into the inherent packing and micro-kernel operations inside GEMM avoids extra workspace and reduces the cost of memory movement. Adopting the same loop structures as high-performance GEMM implementations allows parallelization of all FMM algorithms with simple but efficient data parallelism without the overhead of task parallelism. We present a simple performance model for general FMM algorithms and compare actual performance of 20+ FMM algorithms to modeled predictions. Our implementations demonstrate a performance benefit over conventional GEMM on single core and multi-core systems. This study shows that Strassen-like fast matrix multiplication can be incorporated into libraries for practical use.
We approach the problem of implementing mixed-datatype support within the general matrix multiplication (GEMM) operation of the BLIS framework, whereby each matrix operand A, B, and C may be stored as single- or double-precision real or complex value s. Another factor of complexity, whereby the computation is allowed to take place in a precision different from the storage precisions of either A or B, is also included in the discussion. We first break the problem into mostly orthogonal dimensions, considering the mixing of domains separately from mixing precisions. Support for all combinations of matrix operands stored in either the real or complex domain is mapped out by enumerating the cases and describing an implementation approach for each. Supporting all combinations of storage and computation precisions is handled by typecasting the matrices at key stages of the computation---during packing and/or accumulation, as needed. Several optional optimizations are also documented. Performance results gathered on a 56-core Marvell ThunderX2 and a 52-core Intel Xeon Platinum demonstrate that high performance is mostly preserved, with modest slowdowns incurred from unavoidable typecast instructions. The mixed-datatype implementation confirms that combinatoric intractability is avoided, with the framework relying on only two assembly microkernels to implement 128 datatype combinations.

We propose several new schedules for Strassen-Winograds matrix multiplication algorithm, they reduce the extra memory allocation requirements by three different means: by introducing a few pre-additions, by overwriting the input matrices, or by using a first recursive level of classical multiplication. In particular, we show two fully in-place schedules: one having the same number of operations, if the input matrices can be overwritten; the other one, slightly increasing the constant of the leading term of the complexity, if the input matrices are read-only. Many of these schedules have been found by an implementation of an exhaustive search algorithm based on a pebble game.
Quaternion symmetry is ubiquitous in the physical sciences. As such, much work has been afforded over the years to the development of efficient schemes to exploit this symmetry using real and complex linear algebra. Recent years have also seen many a dvances in the formal theoretical development of explicitly quaternion linear algebra with promising applications in image processing and machine learning. Despite these advances, there do not currently exist optimized software implementations of quaternion linear algebra. The leverage of optimized linear algebra software is crucial in the achievement of high levels of performance on modern computing architectures, and thus provides a central tool in the development of high-performance scientific software. In this work, a case will be made for the efficacy of high-performance quaternion linear algebra software for appropriate problems. In this pursuit, an optimized software implementation of quaternion matrix multiplication will be presented and will be shown to outperform a vendor tuned implementation for the analogous complex matrix operation. The results of this work pave the path for further development of high-performance quaternion linear algebra software which will improve the performance of the next generation of applicable scientific applications.
We present algorithms for real and complex dot product and matrix multiplication in arbitrary-precision floating-point and ball arithmetic. A low-overhead dot product is implemented on the level of GMP limb arrays; it is about twice as fast as previo us code in MPFR and Arb at precision up to several hundred bits. Up to 128 bits, it is 3-4 times as fast, costing 20-30 cycles per term for floating-point evaluation and 40-50 cycles per term for balls. We handle large matrix multiplications even more efficiently via blocks of scaled integer matrices. The new methods are implemented in Arb and significantly speed up polynomial operations and linear algebra.
