Distributed deep learning workloads include throughput-intensive training tasks on the GPU clusters, where the Distributed Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) incurs significant communication delays after backward propagation, forces workers to wait for the gradient synchronization via a centralized parameter server or directly in decentralized workers. We present CrossoverScheduler, an algorithm that enables communication cycles of a distributed training application to be filled by other applications through pipelining communication and computation. With CrossoverScheduler, the running performance of distributed training can be significantly improved without sacrificing convergence rate and network accuracy. We achieve so by introducing Crossover Synchronization which allows multiple distributed deep learning applications to time-share the same GPU alternately. The prototype of CrossoverScheduler is built and integrated with Horovod. Experiments on a variety of distributed tasks show that CrossoverScheduler achieves 20% times speedup for image classification tasks on ImageNet dataset.

Data parallelism does a good job in speeding up the training. However, when it comes to the case when the memory of a single device can not host a whole model, data parallelism would not have the chance to do anything. Another option is to split the
model by operator, or horizontally. Megatron-LM introduced a 1-Dimensional distributed method to use GPUs to speed up the training process. Optimus is a 2D solution for distributed tensor parallelism. However, these methods have a high communication overhead and a low scaling efficiency on large-scale computing clusters. To solve this problem, we investigate the 2.5-Dimensional distributed tensor parallelism.Introduced by Solomonik et al., 2.5-Dimensional Matrix Multiplication developed an effective method to perform multiple Cannons algorithm at the same time to increase the efficiency. With many restrictions of Cannons Algorithm and a huge amount of shift operation, we need to invent a new method of 2.5-dimensional matrix multiplication to enhance the performance. Absorbing the essence from both SUMMA and 2.5-Dimensional Matrix Multiplication, we introduced SUMMA2.5-LM for language models to overcome the abundance of unnecessary transmission loss result from the increasing size of language model parallelism. Compared to previous 1D and 2D model parallelization of language models, our SUMMA2.5-LM managed to reduce the transmission cost on each layer, which could get a 1.45X efficiency according to our weak scaling result between 2.5-D [4,4,4] arrangement and 2-D [8,8,1] arrangement.
Distributed training techniques have been widely deployed in large-scale deep neural networks (DNNs) training on dense-GPU clusters. However, on public cloud clusters, due to the moderate inter-connection bandwidth between instances, traditional stat
e-of-the-art distributed training systems cannot scale well in training large-scale models. In this paper, we propose a new computing and communication efficient top-k sparsification communication library for distributed training. To further improve the system scalability, we optimize I/O by proposing a simple yet efficient multi-level data caching mechanism and optimize the update operation by introducing a novel parallel tensor operator. Experimental results on a 16-node Tencent Cloud cluster (each node with 8 Nvidia Tesla V100 GPUs) show that our system achieves 25%-40% faster than existing state-of-the-art systems on CNNs and Transformer. We finally break the record on DAWNBench on training ResNet-50 to 93% top-5 accuracy on ImageNet.
Artificial intelligence (AI) has witnessed a substantial breakthrough in a variety of Internet of Things (IoT) applications and services, spanning from recommendation systems to robotics control and military surveillance. This is driven by the easier
access to sensory data and the enormous scale of pervasive/ubiquitous devices that generate zettabytes (ZB) of real-time data streams. Designing accurate models using such data streams, to predict future insights and revolutionize the decision-taking process, inaugurates pervasive systems as a worthy paradigm for a better quality-of-life. The confluence of pervasive computing and artificial intelligence, Pervasive AI, expanded the role of ubiquitous IoT systems from mainly data collection to executing distributed computations with a promising alternative to centralized learning, presenting various challenges. In this context, a wise cooperation and resource scheduling should be envisaged among IoT devices (e.g., smartphones, smart vehicles) and infrastructure (e.g. edge nodes, and base stations) to avoid communication and computation overheads and ensure maximum performance. In this paper, we conduct a comprehensive survey of the recent techniques developed to overcome these resource challenges in pervasive AI systems. Specifically, we first present an overview of the pervasive computing, its architecture, and its intersection with artificial intelligence. We then review the background, applications and performance metrics of AI, particularly Deep Learning (DL) and online learning, running in a ubiquitous system. Next, we provide a deep literature review of communication-efficient techniques, from both algorithmic and system perspectives, of distributed inference, training and online learning tasks across the combination of IoT devices, edge devices and cloud servers. Finally, we discuss our future vision and research challenges.
Distributed deep learning systems (DDLS) train deep neural network models by utilizing the distributed resources of a cluster. Developers of DDLS are required to make many decisions to process their particular workloads in their chosen environment ef
ficiently. The advent of GPU-based deep learning, the ever-increasing size of datasets and deep neural network models, in combination with the bandwidth constraints that exist in cluster environments require developers of DDLS to be innovative in order to train high quality models quickly. Comparing DDLS side-by-side is difficult due to their extensive feature lists and architectural deviations. We aim to shine some light on the fundamental principles that are at work when training deep neural networks in a cluster of independent machines by analyzing the general properties associated with training deep learning models and how such workloads can be distributed in a cluster to achieve collaborative model training. Thereby we provide an overview of the different techniques that are used by contemporary DDLS and discuss their influence and implications on the training process. To conceptualize and compare DDLS, we group different techniques into categories, thus establishing a taxonomy of distributed deep learning systems.
Stochastic gradient descent (SGD) is an inherently sequential training algorithm--computing the gradient at batch $i$ depends on the model parameters learned from batch $i-1$. Prior approaches that break this dependence do not honor them (e.g., sum t
he gradients for each batch, which is not what sequential SGD would do) and thus potentially suffer from poor convergence. This paper introduces a novel method to combine gradients called Adasum (for adaptive sum) that converges faster than prior work. Adasum is easy to implement, almost as efficient as simply summing gradients, and is integrated into the open-source toolkit Horovod. This paper first provides a formal justification for Adasum and then empirically demonstrates Adasum is more accurate than prior gradient accumulation methods. It then introduces a series of case-studies to show Adasum works with multiple frameworks, (TensorFlow and PyTorch), scales multiple optimizers (Momentum-SGD, Adam, and LAMB) to larger batch-sizes while still giving good downstream accuracy. Finally, it proves that Adasum converges. To summarize, Adasum scales Momentum-SGD on the MLPerf Resnet50 benchmark to 64K examples before communication (no MLPerf v0.5 entry converged with more than 16K), the Adam optimizer to 64K examples before communication on BERT-LARGE (prior work showed Adam stopped scaling at 16K), and the LAMB optimizer to 128K before communication on BERT-LARGE (prior work used 64K), all while maintaining downstream accuracy metrics. Finally, if a user does not need to scale, we show LAMB with Adasum on BERT-LARGE converges in 30% fewer steps than the baseline.
