DPM: Data Partitioning Method for pipelined MapReduce on GPU

Myung Hyun Jo, Won Woo Ro · 2014

The MapReduce frameworks using a modern graphic processor (GPU) have improved the performance of data-intensive applications. While the prior researches have enhanced the parallelism of the MapReduce application on a GPU, archiving optimal distribution of big data on heterogeneous devices is still a challengeable issue. We therefore propose a method to evenly separate the computing cost under limited memory size. To solve this problem, we design and propose DPM, a Data Partitioning Method, using a GPU to smartly distribute workload of MapReduce. The proposed technique provides well-balanced processing cost for heterogeneous devices.
