ORCA: A Network and Architecture Co-design for Offloading us-scale Datacenter Applications

Yifan Yuan, Jinghan Huang, Yan Sun +7

Responding to the "datacenter tax" and "killer microseconds" problems for datacenter applications, diverse solutions including Smart NIC-based ones have been proposed. Nonetheless,…

Cloud Collectives: Towards Cloud-aware Collectives forML Workloads with Rank Reordering

Liang Luo, Jacob Nelson, Arvind Krishnamurthy +1

ML workloads are becoming increasingly popular in the cloud. Good cloud training performance is contingent on efficient parameter exchange among VMs. We find that Collectives, the…

Bundled References: An Abstraction for Highly-Concurrent Linearizable Range Queries

Jacob Nelson, Ahmed Hassan, Roberto Palmieri

We present bundled references, a new building block to provide linearizable range query operations for highly concurrent linked data structures. Bundled references allow range quer…

Parameter Hub: a Rack-Scale Parameter Server for Distributed Deep Neural Network Training

Liang Luo, Jacob Nelson, Luis Ceze +2

Distributed deep neural network (DDNN) training constitutes an increasingly important workload that frequently runs in the cloud. Larger DNN models and faster compute engines are s…
