Graph convolutional neural networks (GCNs) have achieved state-of-the-art performance on graph-structured data analysis. Like traditional neural networks, training and inference of GCNs are accelerated with GPUs. Therefore, characterizing and understanding the execution pattern of GCNs on GPU is important for both software and hardware optimization. Unfortunately, to the best of our knowledge, there is no detailed characterization effort of GCN workloads on GPU. In this paper, we characterize GCN workloads at inference stage and explore GCN models on NVIDIA V100 GPU. Given the characterization and exploration, we propose several useful guidelines for both software optimization and hardware optimization for the efficient execution of GCNs on GPU.
