Researchers have developed AEGIS, a runtime scheduling system designed to improve the efficiency of deep learning training on shared multi-GPU servers. AEGIS manages the collocation of multiple deep learning workloads by integrating memory feasibility checks, post-placement observation, and runtime-pressure filtering. This approach aims to reduce resource underutilization and queueing times compared to exclusive allocation, while also mitigating performance degradation and out-of-memory failures that can occur with less sophisticated collocation methods. Evaluations using various workloads demonstrated that AEGIS can reduce training makespan by up to 27% compared to exclusive allocation and by 16-21% compared to other collocation systems like Lucid and Horus.
