NuPS: A Parameter Server for Machine Learning with Non-Uniform Parameter Access
Summary: NuPS: a parameter server optimized for non-uniform parameter access. It selects per-parameter management techniques and adds sampling primitives with controlled quality–efficiency trade-offs to address skew and locality, yielding up to 10x speedups and linear scalability.
