ExHET 2023
The 2nd International Workshop on Extreme Heterogeneity Solutions
to be held in conjunction with
PPoPP 2023

25 February - 1 March, 2023
Montreal, Canada

Introduction
While computing technologies have remained relatively stable for nearly two decades, new architectural features, such as specialized hardware, heterogeneous cores, deep memory hierarchies, and near-memory processing, have emerged as possible solutions to address the concerns of energy-efficiency, manufacturability, and cost. However, we expect this ‘golden age’ of architectural change to lead to extreme heterogeneity and it will have a major impact on software systems and applications. In this upcoming exascale and extreme heterogeneity era, it will be critical to explore new software approaches that will enable us to effectively exploit this diverse hardware to advance science, the next-generation systems with heterogeneous elements will need to accommodate complex workflows. This is mainly due to the many forms of heterogeneous accelerators (no longer just GPU accelerators) in this heterogeneous era, and the need of mapping different parts of an application onto elements most appropriate for that application component.

Objectives, scope and topics of the workshop
The goal of this workshop is to provide a forum to discuss new and emerging solutions to address these important challenges from the upcoming extreme heterogeneity era. Papers are being sought on many aspects of heterogeneous computing including (but not limited to):

Heterogeneous Programming Environments and Runtime Systems
--Programming models and systems
--Parallel resource management on heterogeneous systems
--Automated parallelization and compiler techniques (Autotuning)
Heterogeneous Solutions for HPC and Scientific Applications
--Parallel and distributed algorithms
--Parallel libraries and frameworks
--Parallel processing on heterogeneous systems
Heterogeneous (included Non-von Neuman) Architectures
--Power/energy management
--Heterogeneous architectures for emerging application domains
--Architecture designs including Non-von Neuman architectures, memory and interconnection
Reliability/Benchmarking/Measurements
--Debugging, performance tools and techniques
--Fault tolerance and resilience
--Application/hardware benchmarks

Keynote (Seungwon Lee, Samsung):
Single Large Job Acceleration with GPU and Processing-in-memory

In this talk, we explore current trends affecting supercomputers (TOP500) and highlight case studies of large jobs at Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology (SAIT). For Molecular Dynamics (MD) and Density Functional Theory (DFT) simulations, we use GPUs instead of CPUs for improved simulation speed up to 300 times. In addition, we optimized a large language model (BERT) and we can overlap between computation and communications. Using a hyper-parameter auto-tuning method, we can enlarge the batch size and achieve the best time-to-result of BERT training on MLPerf Traning v1.1 and v2.0 when we use 1024 NVIDIA® A100 GPUs. (https://github.com/SAITPublic/). Lastly, we also propose an OpenACC extension for Processing-in-memory (PIM) and some results of HPC benchmarks.

Seungwon Lee is a master (Vice President of Technology) at Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology, Suwon-si, 16678, South Korea. His research interests include large scale deep learning computing SW and near memory computing SW. Lee received a Ph.D. degree in computer science and engineering from Seoul National University, Seoul, South Korea. Contact him at seungw.lee@samsung.com.

Invited Talk (Juan Gomez-Luna, ETH Zurich):
SUnderstanding a Modern Processing-in-Memory Architecture: Benchmarking and Experimental Analysis

Processing-in-memory (PIM) is becoming a reality which promises to overcome the data movement bottleneck (i.e., the waste of execution cycles and energy due to frequent movement of data between memory and compute units) by equipping compute systems with compute-capable memories. Several major vendors and startups have prototyped and announced their PIM architectures. Among them, the UPMEM company commercializes the first publicly-available real-world PIM architecture. This architecture combines traditional DRAM memory arrays with general-purpose in-order cores, called DRAM Processing Units (DPUs), integrated in the same chip. In this talk, we will provide an overview of the first comprehensive analysis of the first publicly-available real-world PIM architecture. We make two key contributions. First, we conduct an experimental characterization of the UPMEM-based PIM system using microbenchmarks to assess various architecture limits such as compute throughput and memory bandwidth, yielding new insights. Second, we present PrIM (Processing-In-Memory benchmarks), a benchmark suite of 16 workloads from different application domains (e.g., dense/sparse linear algebra, databases, data analytics, graph processing, neural networks, bioinformatics, image processing), which we identify as memory-bound. We evaluate the performance and scaling characteristics of PrIM benchmarks on the UPMEM PIM architecture, and compare their performance and energy consumption to their state-of-the-art CPU and GPU counterparts. Our extensive evaluation conducted on two real UPMEM-based PIM systems with 640 and 2,556 DPUs provides new insights about suitability of different workloads to the PIM system, programming recommendations for software designers, and suggestions and hints for hardware and architecture designers of future PIM systems.

Juan Gomez-Luna is a senior researcher and lecturer at SAFARI Research Group at ETH Zurich. He received the BS and MS degrees in Telecommunication Engineering from the University of Sevilla, Spain, in 2001, and the PhD degree in Computer Science from the University of Cordoba, Spain, in 2012. Between 2005 and 2017, he was a faculty member of the University of Cordoba. His research interests focus on processing-in-memory, memory systems, heterogeneous computing, and hardware and software acceleration of medical imaging and bioinformatics. He is the lead author of PrIM (https://github.com/CMU-SAFARI/prim-benchmarks), the first publicly-available benchmark suite for a real-world processing-in-memory architecture, and Chai (https://github.com/chai-benchmarks/chai), a benchmark suite for heterogeneous systems with CPU/GPU/FPGA.
