报告摘要:Deep learning models (e.g., DNNs) have been powering various AI-driven applications. To learn deep learning models with large amounts of data, distributed training using data or model parallelism has been widely adopted, mostly over homogeneous resources (same GPU models, symmetric network bandwidth). Heterogeneous training environments often exist in shared data centers or clouds, with GPUs of different models purchased in different batches and network connections of different bandwidth availability (e.g., due to contention and different physical topologies). Classic data parallelism does not work well in a heterogeneous environment, while model-parallel training is hard to plan. We design algorithms and systems to enable highly-efficient distributed training over heterogeneous available resources, from the perspectives of fine-grain placement and replication of operators in a DNN graph, parameter synchronisation topology construction and execution scheduling. We compare with state-of-the-art designs and show substantial training speed-up with our algorithms and systems.
