Matthias Boehm updated SYSTEMML-2042: ------------------------------------- Description: This epic aims to add support for large-dense matrix blocks. Due to linearized double arrays and Java's limitation of 2G array elements, the current dense block representation is limited to 16GB. Given the trends towards large memory and scale-up environments, there is a needs to overcome this limitation. In order to avoid the memory inefficiency of two-dimensional (nested) arrays or chunked storage, we aim to provide alternative implementations that are selected based on the dimensions of allocated matrix blocks. > Large Dense Matrix Blocks >16GB > ------------------------------- > > Key: SYSTEMML-2042 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SYSTEMML-2042 > Project: SystemML > Issue Type: Epic > Reporter: Matthias Boehm > Fix For: SystemML 1.1 > > > This epic aims to add support for large-dense matrix blocks.
