DISTRIBUTING MATRIX MULTIPLICATION PROCESSING AMONG PROCESSING NODES

Based on a predetermined number of available processor sockets, a plurality of candidate matrix decompositions are identified, which correspond to a multiplication of matrices. Based on a first comparative relationship of a variation of first sizes of the plurality of candidate matrix decompositions along a first dimension and a second comparative relationship of a variation of second sizes of the plurality of candidate matrix decomposition sizes along a second dimension, a given candidate matrix decomposition is selected. Processing of the multiplication among the processor sockets is distributed based on the given candidate matrix decomposition.
