arXiv:2608. 15127v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Agentic applications are shifting AI serving from isolated model inference to long-running workloads in which LLMs coordinate tools, environments, and persistent state.

arXiv:2607. 04281v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Semantic caching reduces the latency and cost of retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) by serving cached answers to semantically similar queries, but most existing methods do not model the time-varying freshness of open-web evidence.

arXiv:2607. 05399v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language model serving is increasingly limited by KV-cache growth under long-context workloads, yet existing KV-cache compression techniques are difficult to compare because they were evaluated on different models, tasks, budgets, and serving stacks.
By Nikita Agrawal, Ruben Mayer
arXiv:2606. 13361v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Right now, across the world, AI agents are repeating the same absurd act: to read one document, they each recompute it from scratch.
By Luoyuan Zhang
arXiv:2607. 28069v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Long-context retrieval and agentic workloads repeatedly reuse the same documents under changing instructions, histories, and document orders.

arXiv:2607. 09493v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agentic LLM systems that generate code through multi-turn tool use face a fundamental context problem: each session starts from zero, discarding the configuration choices, domain constraints, data schemas, and tool-use patterns that made previous sessions productive.
By Sanjana Pedada, Aditya Dhavala, Neelraj Patil
arXiv:2603. 26815v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems for financial document QA typically follow a chunk-based paradigm: documents are split into fragments, embedded, and retrieved by similarity.
By Zhiyuan Cheng, Longying Lai, Yue Liu
arXiv:2607. 15516v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Production LLM deployments combine two cost-reduction primitives: prompt caching (a discounted rate for re-used token prefixes) and prompt compression (fewer tokens sent).
By Yan Song
arXiv:2607. 19349v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed as always-on online services, making efficient LLM serving a critical systems challenge.

arXiv:2608. 06557v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The reasoning and agentic capabilities of large language models have expanded the range of applications they support, from short interactive exchanges to long, compute-heavy requests.

arXiv:2608. 13573v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM) serving has become a critical cloud workload, and realistic traces are essential for motivating and benchmarking serving systems.

arXiv:2606. 07703v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-context prefill remains expensive because full/GQA layers still score the historical sequence, even in hybrid models with local, sparse, linear, or recurrent components.
