Getting Started
TT-Metalium is designed with the needs for non-ML and ML use cases.
The GitHub page for the project is located here: https://github.com/tenstorrent/tt-metal
Installation and environment setup instructions are in the GitHub repository front-page README: https://github.com/tenstorrent/tt-metal/blob/main/INSTALLING.md
Quick Start Guide
Metalium provides developers to do more than running models, facilitating a transition from running models effortlessly out of the box, engaging in lightweight optimizations, and progressing into more sophisticated, heavyweight optimizations. This series of steps serves as an illustrative example, showcasing the available tools for optimizing performance on Tenstorrent hardware.
1. Install and Build
Install and build the project by following the instructions in the installation guide.
2. Beginner Metalium Usage: Single-core Matrix Multiplication Kernel
Use TT-Metalium to define your own matrix multiplication kernels. Refer to our simpler single-core example as a starting point.
3. Advanced Metalium Usage: Multi-core Matrix Multiplication Kernel
Explore expert-level usage by building on the previous example to create a multi-core implementation.
