SDP_PIPE: A Semi-Decentralized Framework for Heterogeneity-aware Pipeline-parallel Training
Summary: SDP_PIPE targets heterogeneous cloud clusters for pipeline-parallel training, avoiding parameter-server bottlenecks and All-Reduce stragglers. It semi-decentralizes synchronization while centralizing global group scheduling, improving scalability, heterogeneity tolerance, and convergence. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
