  1. GPUs are widely deployed on large-scale HPC systems to provide powerful computational capability for scientific applications from various domains. As those applications are normally long-running, investigating the characteristics of GPU errors becomes imperative for reliability. In this paper, we first study the system conditions that trigger GPU errors using six-month trace data collected from a large-scale, operational HPC system. Then, we use machine learning to predict the occurrence of GPU errors, by taking advantage of temporal and spatial dependencies of the trace data. The resulting machine learning prediction framework is robust and accurate under different workloads.

  2. GPUs have become part of the mainstream high performance computing facilities that increasingly require more computational power to simulate physical phenomena quickly and accurately. However, GPU nodes also consume significantly more power than traditional CPU nodes, and high power consumption introduces new system operation challenges, including increased temperature, power/cooling cost, and lower system reliability. This paper explores how power consumption and temperature characteristics affect reliability, provides insights into what are the implications of such understanding, and how to exploit these insights toward predicting GPU errors using neural networks.
