Graph Neural Network (GNN) is a variant of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) operating on graphs. However, GNNs are more complex compared to traditional DNNs as they simultaneously exhibit features of both DNN and graph applications. As a result, architectures specifically optimized for either DNNs or graph applications are not suited for GNN training. In this work, we propose a 3D heterogeneous manycore architecture for on-chip GNN training to address this problem. The proposed architecture, ReGraphX, involves heterogeneous ReRAM crossbars to fulfill the disparate requirements of both DNN and graph computations simultaneously. The ReRAM-based architecture is complemented with a multicast-enabled 3D NoC to improve the overall achievable performance. We demonstrate that ReGraphX outperforms conventional GPUs by up to 3.5X (on an average 3X) in terms of execution time, while reducing energy consumption by as much as 11X.

Ultra-fast & low-power superconductor single-flux-quantum (SFQ)-based CNN systolic accelerators are built to enhance the CNN inference throughput. However, shift-register (SHIFT)-based scratchpad memory (SPM) arrays prevent a SFQ CNN accelerator from
exceeding 40% of its peak throughput, due to the lack of random access capability. This paper first documents our study of a variety of cryogenic memory technologies, including Vortex Transition Memory (VTM), Josephson-CMOS SRAM, MRAM, and Superconducting Nanowire Memory, during which we found that none of the aforementioned technologies made a SFQ CNN accelerator achieve high throughput, small area, and low power simultaneously. Second, we present a heterogeneous SPM architecture, SMART, composed of SHIFT arrays and a random access array to improve the inference throughput of a SFQ CNN systolic accelerator. Third, we propose a fast, low-power and dense pipelined random access CMOS-SFQ array by building SFQ passive-transmission-line-based H-Trees that connect CMOS sub-banks. Finally, we create an ILP-based compiler to deploy CNN models on SMART. Experimental results show that, with the same chip area overhead, compared to the latest SHIFT-based SFQ CNN accelerator, SMART improves the inference throughput by $3.9times$ ($2.2times$), and reduces the inference energy by $86%$ ($71%$) when inferring a single image (a batch of images).
The number of parameters in deep neural networks (DNNs) is scaling at about 5$times$ the rate of Moores Law. To sustain the pace of growth of the DNNs, new technologies and computing architectures are needed. Photonic computing systems are promising
avenues, since they can perform the dominant general matrix-matrix multiplication (GEMM) operations in DNNs at a higher throughput than their electrical counterpart. However, purely photonic systems face several challenges including a lack of photonic memory, the need for conversion circuits, and the accumulation of noise. In this paper, we propose a hybrid electro-photonic system realizing the best of both worlds to accelerate DNNs. In contrast to prior work in photonic and electronic accelerators, we adopt a system-level perspective. Our electro-photonic system includes an electronic host processor and DRAM, and a custom electro-photonic hardware accelerator called ADEPT. The fused hardware accelerator leverages a photonic computing unit for performing highly-efficient GEMM operations and a digital electronic ASIC for storage and for performing non-GEMM operations. We also identify architectural optimization opportunities for improving the overall ADEPTs efficiency. We evaluate ADEPT using three state-of-the-art neural networks-ResNet-50, BERT-large, and RNN-T-to show its general applicability in accelerating todays DNNs. A head-to-head comparison of ADEPT with systolic array architectures shows that ADEPT can provide, on average, 7.19$times$ higher inference throughput per watt.
Heterogeneous manycore architectures are the key to efficiently execute compute- and data-intensive applications. Through silicon via (TSV)-based 3D manycore system is a promising solution in this direction as it enables integration of disparate comp
uting cores on a single system. However, the achievable performance of conventional through-silicon-via (TSV)-based 3D systems is ultimately bottlenecked by the horizontal wires (wires in each planar die). Moreover, current TSV 3D architectures suffer from thermal limitations. Hence, TSV-based architectures do not realize the full potential of 3D integration. Monolithic 3D (M3D) integration, a breakthrough technology to achieve - More Moore and More Than Moore - and opens up the possibility of designing cores and associated network routers using multiple layers by utilizing monolithic inter-tier vias (MIVs) and hence, reducing the effective wire length. Compared to TSV-based 3D ICs, M3D offers the true benefits of vertical dimension for system integration: the size of a MIV used in M3D is over 100x smaller than a TSV. In this work, we demonstrate how M3D-enabled vertical core and uncore elements offer significant performance and thermal improvements in manycore heterogeneous architectures compared to its TSV-based counterpart. To overcome the difficult optimization challenges due to the large design space and complex interactions among the heterogeneous components (CPU, GPU, Last Level Cache, etc.) in an M3D-based manycore chip, we leverage novel design-space exploration algorithms to trade-off different objectives. The proposed M3D-enabled heterogeneous architecture, called HeM3D, outperforms its state-of-the-art TSV-equivalent counterpart by up to 18.3% in execution time while being up to 19 degrees Celcius cooler.
Neural networks are an increasingly attractive algorithm for natural language processing and pattern recognition. Deep networks with >50M parameters are made possible by modern GPU clusters operating at <50 pJ per op and more recently, production acc
elerators capable of <5pJ per operation at the board level. However, with the slowing of CMOS scaling, new paradigms will be required to achieve the next several orders of magnitude in performance per watt gains. Using an analog resistive memory (ReRAM) crossbar to perform key matrix operations in an accelerator is an attractive option. This work presents a detailed design using a state of the art 14/16 nm PDK for of an analog crossbar circuit block designed to process three key kernels required in training and inference of neural networks. A detailed circuit and device-level analysis of energy, latency, area, and accuracy are given and compared to relevant designs using standard digital ReRAM and SRAM operations. It is shown that the analog accelerator has a 270x energy and 540x latency advantage over a similar block utilizing only digital ReRAM and takes only 11 fJ per multiply and accumulate (MAC). Compared to an SRAM based accelerator, the energy is 430X better and latency is 34X better. Although training accuracy is degraded in the analog accelerator, several options to improve this are presented. The possible gains over a similar digital-only version of this accelerator block suggest that continued optimization of analog resistive memories is valuable. This detailed circuit and device analysis of a training accelerator may serve as a foundation for further architecture-level studies.
Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have achieved great success in performing cognitive tasks. However, execution of CNNs requires a large amount of computing resources and generates heavy memory traffic, which imposes a severe challenge on computin
g system design. Through optimizing parallel executions and data reuse in convolution, systolic architecture demonstrates great advantages in accelerating CNN computations. However, regular internal data transmission path in traditional systolic architecture prevents the systolic architecture from completely leveraging the benefits introduced by neural network sparsity. Deployment of fine-grained sparsity on the existing systolic architectures is greatly hindered by the incurred computational overheads. In this work, we propose S2Engine $-$ a novel systolic architecture that can fully exploit the sparsity in CNNs with maximized data reuse. S2Engine transmits compressed data internally and allows each processing element to dynamically select an aligned data from the compressed dataflow in convolution. Compared to the naive systolic array, S2Engine achieves about $3.2times$ and about $3.0times$ improvements on speed and energy efficiency, respectively.
