Abstract
En 中文
Even though it is well known that binary values are common in graph applications (e.g., adjacency matrix), how to leverage the phenomenon for efficiency has not yet been adequately explored. This paper presents a systematic study on how to unlock the potential of the bit-level optimizations of graph computations that involve binary values. It proposes a two-level representation named Bit-Block Compressed Sparse Row (B2SR) and presents a series of optimizations to the graph operations on B2SR by the intrinsics of modern GPUs. It additionally introduces Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) as an efficient way to best configure the bit-level optimizations on the fly. The DQN-based adaptive tile size selector with dedicated model training can reach 68% prediction accuracy. Evaluations on the NVIDIA Pascal and Volta GPUs show that the optimizations bring up to 40x and 6555x for essential GraphBLAS kernels SpMV and SpGEMM, respectively, accelerating GraphBLAS-based BFS by up to 433x, SSSP, PR, and CC 35x, and TC 52x.
