arXiv:2608. 16336v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern LLM serving deployments must simultaneously satisfy heterogeneous service-level objectives (SLOs) across a diverse population of user tiers, ranging from latency-critical API calls to background batch processing.
arXiv:2607. 02525v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present PEEK, a lightweight scheduling and eviction framework for both online (streaming) and offline (batch) LLM serving; this paper focuses on the online regime.
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:2605. 09735v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Static-graph LLM decoders provide predictable launches, fixed tensor shapes, and low submission overhead, but online decoding exposes highly irregular KV-cache behavior: request lengths differ, EOS events arrive asynchronously, and logical histories fragment over time.
arXiv:2607. 04206v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion language models (dLLMs) generate text by iteratively denoising a masked response and can commit multiple output positions per model invocation.
arXiv:2606. 06256v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As the input length of large language model (LLM) serving continues to grow, the KV cache has become a dominant bottleneck in AI infrastructure.
Diffusion language models (dLLMs) generate text by iteratively denoising a masked response and can commit multiple output positions per model invocation. Their bidirectional attention prevents exact autoregressive-style KV caching, since committing one position shifts the KV activations of all others.
arXiv:2606. 13126v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Retrieval-augmented and agentic workloads repeatedly prefill recurring predictable structured inputs (which we call "spans") such as documents and code files.
Retrieval-augmented and agentic workloads repeatedly prefill recurring predictable structured inputs (which we call "spans") such as documents and code files. Yet, prefix caching in engines such as vLLM cannot reuse their KV entries unless they share identical prefixes with another request, while Position-Independent Caching (PIC) implementations within production-grade inference servers typically either require substantial server code changes or keep KV state outside the server, incurring host-to-device transfer overhead.
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:2607. 22595v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Mechanistic interpretability (MI) has emerged as a powerful approach for analyzing and intervening in inference computations, with a growing number of applications such as jailbreak attempt detection, truthfulness evaluation, and hallucination detection.
arXiv:2607. 02043v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Disaggregated LLM serving runs prefill and decode on separate GPU pools to keep the two phases from interfering.
