Efficient Spatial Anti-Aliasing Rendering for Line Joins on Vector Maps

The spatial anti-aliasing technique for line joins (intersections of the road segments) on vector maps is exclusively crucial to visual experience and system performance. Due to limitations of OpenGL API, one common practice to achieve the anti-aliased effect is splicing multiple triangles at varying scale levels to approximate the fan-shaped line joins. However, this approximation […]

Novel Methodologies for Predictable CPU-To-GPU Command Offloading

There is an increasing industrial and academic interest towards a more predictable characterization of real-time tasks on high-performance heterogeneous embedded platforms, where a host system offloads parallel workloads to an integrated accelerator, such as General Purpose-Graphic Processing Units (GP-GPUs). In this paper, we analyze an important aspect that has not yet been considered in the […]

A Unified Optimization Approach for CNN Model Inference on Integrated GPUs

Modern deep learning applications urge to push the model inference taking place at the edge devices for multiple reasons such as achieving shorter latency, relieving the burden of the network connecting to the cloud, and protecting user privacy. The Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is one of the most widely used model family in the applications. […]

FusionAccel: A General Re-configurable Deep Learning Inference Accelerator on FPGA for Convolutional Neural Networks

The deep learning accelerator is one of the methods to accelerate deep learning network computations, which is mainly based on convolutional neural network acceleration. To address the fact that concurrent convolutional neural network accelerators are not solely open-source and the exclusiveness of platforms, FusionAccel, a scalable convolutional neural network accelerator hardware architecture with supporting software […]

Semantic Product Search

We study the problem of semantic matching in product search, that is, given a customer query, retrieve all semantically related products from the catalog. Pure lexical matching via an inverted index falls short in this respect due to several factors: a) lack of understanding of hypernyms, synonyms, and antonyms, b) fragility to morphological variants (e.g. […]

PIConGPU: Predictive Simulations of Laser-Particle Accelerators with Manycore Hardware

The presented thesis establishes simulations on modern massively parallel computing hardware to investigate relativistic laser-driven plasmas. The latter are of special interest as they may provide a compact source for energetic ion beams. Computer simulations provide valuable insight into ultrafast plasma processes, evolving in the ultrahigh intensity (l_0 >> 1018 W/cm^2) focus of the ultrashort […]

Themis: Fair and Efficient GPU Cluster Scheduling for Machine Learning Workloads

Modern distributed machine learning (ML) training workloads benefit significantly from leveraging GPUs. However, significant contention ensues when multiple such workloads are run atop a shared cluster of GPUs. A key question is how to fairly apportion GPUs across workloads while ensuring overall cluster efficiency. We find that established cluster scheduling disciplines that provide instantaneous fair […]

Automated Generation of OpenCL Programs Based on Algebra-Algorithmic Approach

The paper proposes the further development of algebra-algorithmic design and synthesis tools towards the development of OpenCL programs. The method for semi-automatic parallelization of cyclic operators is proposed. The particular feature of the approach consists in using high-level algebraalgorithmic program specifications (schemes) and rewriting rules technique. The developed tools provide the construction of parallel algorithm […]

WCCV: Improving the Vectorization of IF-statements with Warp-Coherent Conditions

When vectorizing programs for modern processors with SIMD extensions, IF-statements pose a challenge: existing vectorization approaches often introduce redundant computations or they resort to inefficient masked instructions. In this paper, we introduce a new notion of warp-coherence for conditions that exhibit coherent run-time behavior on different lanes of a vector register. We demonstrate that warp-coherent […]

Memory Bandwidth and Latency in HPC: System Requirements and Performance Impact

A major contributor to the deployment and operational costs of a large-scale high-performance computing (HPC) clusters is the memory system. In terms of system performance it is one of the most critical aspects of the system’s design. However, next generation of HPC systems poses significant challenges for the main memory, and it is questionable whether […]

Triton: An Intermediate Language and Compiler for Tiled Neural Network Computations

The validation and deployment of novel research ideas in the field of Deep Learning is often limited by the availability of efficient compute kernels for certain basic primitives. In particular, operations that cannot leverage existing vendor libraries (e.g., cuBLAS, cuDNN) are at risk of facing poor device utilization unless custom implementations are written by experts […]

HEATS: Heterogeneity- and Energy-Aware Task-based Scheduling

Cloud providers usually offer diverse types of hardware for their users. Customers exploit this option to deploy cloud instances featuring GPUs, FPGAs, architectures other than x86 (e.g., ARM, IBM Power8), or featuring certain specific extensions (e.g, Intel SGX). We consider in this work the instances used by customers to deploy containers, nowadays the de facto […]
