    As large language models (LLMs) continue to advance, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) has become the key mechanism for expanding model knowledge and reducing hallucinations. Central to RAG is approximate nearest neighbor search (ANNS), which retrieves database vectors most similar to a given query. However, distance calculation over high-dimensional vectors is inherently memory-bound, causing retrieval performance to be constrained by I/O...

    CompPow: A Case for Component-level GPU Power Management

    Shaizeen Aga, Mohamed Assem Ibrahim

    cs.AR · cs.DC

    The ever increasing demand for ML-driven intelligence in a wide spectrum of domains has led to ubiquity of GPUs. At the same time, GPUs are notorious for their power consumption needs and often dominate power allocation in a typical ML datacenter. While datacenter-level power optimizations which focus on collection of GPUs are promising, in this work, we take a different tack -- namely, we take a closer look at power consumption inside a GPU....
