Abstract
A coarse-grained reconfigurable processor (CGRP) system for implementing data-parallel training of a neural network is presented. The CGRP system includes a set of coarse-grained reconfigurable units (CGRUs) in a first CGRP configured to implement at least a portion of the neural network, to determine first and second gradients, respectively, of first and second model parameters based on a batch of training data, and to store the first and second gradients in a memory, a network interface including an external direct memory access (DMA) engine coupled between the memory and a network, and a work queue associated with the external DMA engine, wherein completion of determining the first gradient triggers a first work queue entry of the work queue that directs the external DMA engine to transfer the first gradient from the memory over the network to another memory coupled to a second CGRP for a gradient reduction operation.
