Spzip Official
It uses a specialized Dataflow Configuration Language (DCL) to specify how data structures are traversed and generated, allowing it to adapt to diverse sparse formats (CSR, DCSR, COO, etc.).
SpZip decouples the data structure traversal from the main processor core, allowing the system to "fetch and decompress" ahead of time, hiding the high latency of memory accesses.
Simulations show that SpZip provides significant performance gains over software-only or traditional hardware compression techniques. It uses a specialized Dataflow Configuration Language (DCL)
Specific examples of SpZip optimizes.
SpZip outperforms state-of-the-art accelerators by a geometric mean of 3.0× (up to 5.2×). Specific examples of SpZip optimizes
It reduces traffic by 1.7× (1.4× over existing state-of-the-art hardware methods).
Neighbor sets in a graph are rarely the same size. Neighbor sets in a graph are rarely the same size
Data is scattered, making it hard to compress efficient, large contiguous blocks.
