Moore Threads has announced the official launch of version 1.1 of its open-source, large-scale model distributed training simulation tool, SimuMax. Building on the high-precision simulation features of its predecessor (v1.0), this latest iteration has evolved into an integrated full-stack workflow platform. It now offers comprehensive support for simulating and optimizing large-scale model training processes.

This update brings three key innovations to the table: a user-friendly visual configuration interface, an intelligent parallel strategy search function, and a System-Config generation pipeline. The latter seamlessly integrates computational and communication efficiency modeling. Furthermore, the new version boasts improved compatibility with the widely-used Megatron-LM training framework. It also enhances the accuracy of modeling complex communication behaviors in hybrid parallel training scenarios. As a result, the simulation environment now mirrors real-world production conditions more closely than ever before.
