title: Compass: A Decentralized Scheduler for Latency-Sensitive ML Workflows
abstract: We consider ML query processing in distributed systems where GPU-enabled workers coordinate to execute complex queries: a computing style often seen in applications that interact with users in support of image processing and natural language processing. In such systems, coscheduling of GPU memory management and task placement represents a promising opportunity. We propose Compass, a novel framework that unifies these functions to reduce job latency while using resources efficiently, placing task
