Introduced by Hao Zhang et al. in AutoSync: Learning to Synchronize for Data-Parallel Distributed Deep Learning

archive 2025-07-28 Description, source and code snippet are the archive's method entry.

AutoSync is a pipeline for automatically optimizing synchronization strategies, given model structures and resource specifications, in data-parallel distributed machine learning. By factorizing the synchronization strategy with respect to each trainable building block of a DL model, we can construct a valid and large strategy space spanned by multiple factors. AutoSync efficiently navigates the space and locates the optimal strategy. AutoSync leverages domain knowledge about synchronization systems to reduce the search space, and is equipped with a domain adaptive simulator, which combines principled communication modeling and data-driven ML models, to estimate the runtime of strategy proposals without launching real distributed execution.

Papers per year tagged with AutoSync: 2020 to 2020, peak 1 1 0 2020: 1 paper 2020
Papers per year the archive tags with this method, by the paper's archive date (1 dated). Bars are counts, not a trend claim.

Components: the archive holds no method-to-method composition, so PwC's Components table cannot be rebuilt; the Papers list carries no Results column for the same reason (the archive does not join its leaderboard rows to method tags).
