HippoRAG is a novel Retriever-Augmented Generation (RAG) framework inspired by human long-term memory, enabling Large Language Models (LLMs) to continuously integrate knowledge across external documents. Experiments demonstrate that HippoRAG can provide the capabilities of RAG systems, typically requiring expensive and high-latency iterative LLM pipelines, at a lower computational cost.

Large language models increasingly rely on distributed techniques for training and inference. These techniques necessitate communication between devices, and as the number of devices increases, this can degrade scaling efficiency. While some distributed techniques can overlap communication to hide independent computation, techniques like tensor parallelism (TP) inherently serialize communication with model execution. One way to hide this serialized communication is to interweave it with producer operations (data generation) in a fine-grained manner. However, implementing this fine-grained communication and computation interleaving in software can be challenging. Furthermore, like any concurrent execution, it requires sharing computational and memory resources between computation and communication, leading to resource contention and decreased overlap efficiency. To overcome these challenges, we propose T3, which uses hardware-software co-design to transparently overlap serialized communication while minimizing resource contention with computation. T3, through simple configuration of producer output address spaces, transparently fuses producer operations and subsequent communication, requiring minimal software changes. At the hardware level, T3 incorporates lightweight tracking and triggering mechanisms to orchestrate producer computation and communication. It further leverages enhanced compute memory for computation related to communication. Consequently, T3 reduces resource contention and effectively overlaps serialized communication with computation. For important Transformer models like T-NLG, T3 achieves a geometric mean speedup of 30% (up to 47%) for communication-intensive sublayers and a geometric mean reduction of 22% (up to 36%) in data movement. Furthermore, T3's benefits persist as models scale: achieving a geometric mean speedup of 29% for sublayers in the 500B parameter sim model, PALM, and MT-NLG.

Zero Bubble Pipeline Parallelism is a crucial component of large-scale distributed training, and its efficiency is affected by pipeline bubbles. We introduce a scheduling strategy that successfully achieves zero pipeline bubbles under synchronous training semantics. The core idea behind this improvement is to divide backward calculation into two parts: one part calculates the gradients of the input, and the other part calculates the gradients of the parameters. Based on this idea, we manually designed novel pipeline scheduling, which significantly outperforms benchmark methods. We further developed an algorithm that automatically finds the optimal scheduling based on specific model configuration and memory constraints. Furthermore, to truly achieve zero bubbles, we introduce a novel technique that bypasses synchronization during optimizer steps. Experimental evaluation demonstrates that our method achieves up to 23% higher throughput than the 1F1B schedule under similar memory constraints. This number can further increase to 31% when memory constraints are relaxed. We believe our results mark an important step towards realizing the potential of pipeline parallelism.
