Context Before

To hide the communication latency of dispatch and combine, we employ ping pong pipeline parallelism.

Evidence

In addition to splitting batches into micro-batches and computation pipelining like standard pipeline parallelism, the tokens dispatched to the LPUs are combined back to the source GPUs, so they ping pong between the GPUs and the LPUs.

Context After

② Atomic Claim

除了像標準 pipeline parallelism 一樣把 batch 切成 micro-batch 並做 computation pipelining,送到 LPU 的 token 還會被 combine 回來源 GPU,因此 token 會在 GPU 與 LPU 之間來回 ping-pong。
