Week 7

This week I was able to get GNN to work on a multi thor and mutli GPU system without errors on a bare metal system on AWS! There have seemingly been an extra amount of roadblocks this year from one type of bug or another. It is designed so that one Thor gets one GPU, and if there are more Thors than GPUs, these Thors will put the GNN onto the CPU. This of course negates any benefits of using a GPU, since we still have to wait for the CPU, but it avoids crashing and having to use one GPU for 2 separate processes synchronously. A note to the user that their setup needs a 1:1 Thor:GPU ratio is needed. Or at the very least, limit which Thor they can use for GNN, if they want GPU acceleration.

Week 11

This week all the code (major changes at least) is going to be unchanged. Other than cleaning it up for making a repo that others can use. No one wants to (or should have to) read poorly commented cod

Week 10

Nearing the home stretch. As part of trying to improve the efficiency of the GNN runtime across many GPUs, I started to experiment with using a different approach to using so many GPUs. A “normal” GNN

Week 9

It’s already August and there are only 3 more weeks until I run out of time with this internship! Time certainly flies. As per a recommendation from my mentor who knows way more about HPCC than I, I s
