Interference-Aware Scheduling Service for Virtual GPU Enabled Systems

Abstract:

Disclosed are aspects of interference-aware virtual machine assignment for systems that include graphics processing units (GPUs) that are virtual GPU (vGPU) enabled. In some examples, a plurality of workloads are executed alone and co-located with other workloads in a virtual graphics processing unit (vGPU)-enabled system to determine baseline parameters and measured interferences. A machine learning model is trained to predict interference based on the measured interferences and the baseline parameters. A workload is assigned and executed on a particular GPU associated with a minimum predicted interference with the workload based on currently-assigned workloads of the particular GPU.
