Accelerating Graph and Machine Learning Workloads Using a Shared Memory Multicore Architecture with Auxiliary Support for In-hardware Explicit Messaging
Shared Memory stands out as a sine qua non for parallel programming of many commercial and emerging multicore processors. It optimizes patterns of communication that benefit common programming styles. As parallel programming is now mainstream, those common programming styles are challenged with emerging applications that communicate often and involve large amount of data. Such applications include graph analytics and machine learning, and this paper focuses on these domains. We retain the shared memory model and introduce a set of lightweight in-hardware explicit messaging instructions in the instruction set architecture (ISA). A set of auxiliary communication models are proposed that utilize explicit messages to accelerate synchronization primitives, and efficiently move computation towards data. The results on a 256-core simulated multicore demonstrate that the proposed communication models improve performance and dynamic energy by an average of 4x and 42% respectively over traditional shared memory.
