  1. TensorFlow: Expressing High-Level ML Computations Core in C++ • Very

    • low overhead Different • front ends for specifying/driving the computation Python • and C++ today, easy to add more
  2. Computation is a dataflow graph Graph of Nodes • ,

    called Operations or ops Edges are N • -dimensional arrays: Tensors
  3. Computation is a dataflow graph Assign Devices to Ops •

    TensorFlow inserts Send/Recv Ops to transport tensors across devices • Recv ops pull data from Send ops
  4. Computation is a dataflow graph Assign Devices to Ops TensorFlow

    inserts Send/Recv Ops to transport tensors across devices • Recv • ops pull data from Send ops
  5. Distributed training mechanisms Graph structure and low-level graph primitives (queues)

    allow us to play with synchronous vs. asynchronous update algorithms.
