• Abstract summary: We propose a novel Graph Neural Network based auto-tuning approach to improve the performance, power, and energy efficiency of scientific applications on modern processors. Our approach identifies OpenMP configurations at different power constraints that yield a mean geometric performance improvement of more than $25%$ and $13%$ over the default OpenMP configuration.

• Abstract: Recent advances in multi and many-core processors have led to significant improvements in the performance of scientific computing applications. However, the addition of a large number of complex cores have also increased the overall power consumption, and power has become a first-order design constraint in modern processors. While we can limit power consumption by simply applying software-based power constraints, applying them blindly will lead to non-trivial performance degradation. To address the challenge of improving the performance, power, and energy efficiency of scientific applications on modern multi-core processors, we propose a novel Graph Neural Network based auto-tuning approach that (i) optimizes runtime performance at pre-defined power constraints, and (ii) simultaneously optimizes for runtime performance and energy efficiency by minimizing the energy-delay product. The key idea behind this approach lies in modeling parallel code regions as flow-aware code graphs to capture both semantic and structural code features. We demonstrate the efficacy of our approach by conducting an extensive evaluation on $30$ benchmarks and proxy-/mini-applications with $68$ OpenMP code regions. Our approach identifies OpenMP configurations at different power constraints that yield a geometric mean performance improvement of more than $25\%$ and $13\%$ over the default OpenMP configuration on a 32-core Skylake and a $16$-core Haswell processor respectively. In addition, when we optimize for the energy-delay product, the OpenMP configurations selected by our auto-tuner demonstrate both performance improvement of $21\%$ and $11\%$ and energy reduction of $29\%$ and $18\%$ over the default OpenMP configuration at Thermal Design Power for the same Skylake and Haswell processors, respectively.

  This work introduces a framework to develop efficient, portable Deep Learning and High Performance Computing kernels.

We demonstrate the efficacy of our approach using standalone kernels and end-to-end workloads that outperform state-of-the-art implementations on diverse CPU platforms.
