+# Reproducing Figures in SC21 Paper
+
+
+This directory contains some of the scripts that were used to produce the
+results in the [Megatron paper](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2104.04473.pdf) that is
+to appear at [SuperComputing 2021](https://sc21.supercomputing.org/). These
+scripts use [Slurm](https://slurm.schedmd.com/documentation.html) with the
+[pyxis plugin](https://github.com/NVIDIA/pyxis), but can be modified for other
+schedulers as well.
+
+
+## Setup
+
+All the cluster-dependent variables are in [`CONFIG.sh`](./CONFIG.sh). Please
+update the unspecified values (in angle brackets `<...>`) before launching any
+scripts.
+
+
+
+## Scripts
+
+Below is a list of scripts that can be used to reproduce various figures in our
+[paper](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2104.04473.pdf):
+
+* [run_table_1.sh](./run_table_1.sh): Table 1 showing weak-scaling throughput
+for GPT models ranging from 1 billion to 1 trillion parameters.
+* [run_figure_11.sh](./run_figure_11.sh): Figure 11 showing the weak-scaling
+performance of pipeline parallelism.
+* [run_figure_12.sh](./run_figure_12.sh): Figure 12 showing the effect of
+the interleaved schedule on a 175B GPT model.
+* [run_figure_13.sh](./run_figure_13.sh): Figure 13 showing the effect of
+different degrees of pipeline and tensor model parallelism on a model with
+162.2 billion parameters.
+* [run_figure_14.sh](./run_figure_14.sh): Figure 14 showing the effect of
+different degrees of data and pipeline model parallelism on a model with
+5.9 billion parameters.
+* [run_figure_15.sh](./run_figure_15.sh): Figure 15 showing the effect of
+different degrees of data and tensor model parallelism on a model with
+5.9 billion parameters.
+* [run_figure_16.sh](./run_figure_16.sh): Figure 16 showing the effect of
+microbatch size.
+* [run_figure_17.sh](./run_figure_17.sh): Figure 17 showing the effect of
+activation recomputation.
+* [run_figure_18.sh](./run_figure_18.sh): Figure 18 showing the effect of
+the scatter-gather communication optimization.
