Stencil computation is one of the most widely-used compute patterns in high performance computing applications. Spatial and temporal blocking have been proposed to overcome the memory-bound nature of this type of computation by moving memory pressure from external memory to on-chip memory on GPUs. However, correctly implementing those optimizations while considering the complexity of the architecture and memory hierarchy of GPUs to achieve high performance is difficult. We propose AN5D, an automated stencil framework which is capable of automatically transforming and optimizing stencil patterns in a given C source code, and generating corresponding CUDA code. Parameter tuning in our framework is guided by our performance model. Our novel optimization strategy reduces shared memory and register pressure in comparison to existing implementations, allowing performance scaling up to a temporal blocking degree of 10. We achieve the highest performance reported so far for all evaluated stencil benchmarks on the state-of-the-art Tesla V100 GPU.CCS Concepts • Software and its engineering → Source code generation.
We present a multi-GPU design, implementation and performance evaluation of the Halevi-Polyakov-Shoup (HPS) variant of the Fan-Vercauteren (FV) levelled Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) scheme. Our design follows a data parallelism approach and uses partitioning methods to distribute the workload in FV primitives evenly across available GPUs. The design is put to address space and runtime requirements of FHE computations. It is also suitable for distributed-memory architectures, and includes efficient GPU-to-GPU data exchange protocols. Moreover, it is user-friendly as user intervention is not required for task decomposition, scheduling or load balancing. We implement and evaluate the performance of our design on 2 homogeneous and heterogeneous NVIDIA GPU clusters: K80, and a customized P100. We also provide a comparison with a recent shared-memory based multi-core CPU implementation using two homomorphic circuits as workloads: vector addition and multiplication. Moreover, we use our multi-GPU Levelled-FHE to implement the inference circuit of two Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) to perform homomorphically image classification on encrypted images from the MNIST and CIFAR-10 datasets. Our implementation provides 1 to 3 orders of magnitude speedup compared with the CPU implementation on vector operations. In terms of scalability, our design shows reasonable scalability curves when the GPUs are fully connected.
