Abstract

Computer Science Computer Science, Hardware & Architecture Computer Science, Theory & Methods Engineering Engineering, Electrical & Electronic Science & Technology Technology
In this paper, we present collaborative CPU + GPU algorithms for triangle counting and truss decomposition, the two fundamental problems in graph analytics. We describe the implementation details and present experimental evaluation on the IBM Minsky platform. The main contribution of this paper is a thorough benchmarking and comparison of the different memory management schemes offered by CUDA 8 and NVLink, which can be harnessed for tackling large problems where the limited GPU memory capacity is the primary bottleneck in traditional computing platform. We find that the collaborative algorithms achieve 28x speedup on average (180x max) for triangle counting, and 165x speedup on average (498x max) for truss decomposition, when compared with the baseline Python implementation provided by the Graph Challenge organizers.
