Exploration of fine-grained parallelism for load balancing eager K-truss on GPU and CPU
In this work we present a performance exploration on Eager K-truss, a linear-algebraic formulation of the K-truss graph algorithm. We address performance issues related to load imbalance of parallel tasks in symmetric, triangular graphs by presenting a fine-grained parallel approach to executing the support computation. This approach also increases available parallelism, making it amenable to GPU execution. We demonstrate our fine-grained parallel approach using implementations in Kokkos and evaluate them on an Intel Skylake CPU and an Nvidia Tesla V100 GPU. Overall, we observe between a 1.261. 48x improvement on the CPU and a 9.97-16.92x improvement on the GPU due to our fine-grained parallel formulation.
