High-performance Distributed Deep Learning

The parallel and distributed systems are the solution to address the ever-increasing complexity problem of deep learning trainings. However, existing solutions still leave efficiency and scalability on the table by missing optimization opportunities on various environments at industrial scale.

In this project, we’ll work with scientists who are at the forefront of system and network research, leveraging the world-leading platforms to solve system and networking problems in parallel and distributed deep learning area. The current project team members, from both MSR Asia and MSR Redmond labs, have rich experience contributing to both industry and academic community through transferring innovations that support production systems and publications at top conferences.

Intelligent Power-Aware Virtual  Machine  Allocation

As one of the world-leading cloud service providers, Microsoft Azure manages tens of millions of virtual machines every day. Within such a large-scale cloud system, how to efficiently allocate virtual machines on servers is critical and has been a hot research topic for years. Previously, teams from MSR-Asia and MSR-Redmond have made significant contributions in this area that resulted in production impact and publication of academic papers at top-tier conferences (e.g., IJCAI, AAAI, OSDI, NSDI). In this project we intend to unify the strength of MSR-Asia and MSR-Redmond for performing forward-looking and collaborative research on power management in datacenters, including power-aware virtual machine allocation. The project involves developing power prediction models by leveraging the start-of-the-art machine learning methods, as well as building efficient and reliable allocation systems in large-scale distributed environments.
