Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for scheduling operations represented as a computational graph on a distributed computing network. A method includes: receiving data representing operations to be executed in order to perform a job on a plurality of hardware accelerators of a plurality of different accelerator types; generating, for the job and from at least the data representing the operations, features that represent a predicted performance for the job on hardware accelerators of the plurality of different accelerator types; generating, from the features, a respective predicted performance metric for the job for each of the plurality of different accelerator types according to a performance objective function; and providing, to a scheduling system, one or more recommendations for scheduling the job on one or more recommended types of hardware accelerators.
