  • A team is training a large neural network using a layer-wise model parallel strategy. They decide to increase the number of worker devices from 2 to 4, further partitioning the model's layers. Assuming the total computation time for the model remains constant, what is the most likely impact of this change on the overall hardware utilization efficiency?

  • Calculating Sequential Processing Inefficiency
