arXiv:2603. 02376v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Computation and communication in distributed LLM training and inference are traditionally optimized in isolation; expert-crafted systems such as DeepEP, FLUX, and TokenWeave show the potential of co-design but require deep systems expertise and hardware-specific tuning; CUCo is an agentic framework that automates compute-communication co-design of CUDA kernels by combining a structured design-space formalization with a correctness-first fast-path agent for reliable baselines and an evolution-driven slow-path agent for high-performance strategies, achieving up to 1.

arXiv:2606. 24780v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Progress in deep learning is, at scale, more a matter of systems engineering than of modelling: the behaviour of a model in training (its throughput, its memory footprint, and the numerical fidelity of the result) is determined less by the architecture itself than by how that architecture is expressed on the hardware.

DataKernelBench evaluates whether large language models (LLMs) can optimize database queries for GPU execution. The benchmark translates SQL into PyTorch TorchPlan programs and tests LLMs on optimizing core tensor snippets or full queries in CUDA or Triton, using execution-guided repair. On TPC‑H SF10 with an H100 GPU, the best full‑query CUDA configuration outperforms torch.compile by 2.11×, and extending TorchPlan with Dask‑cuDF enables a 2.54× speedup on TPC‑H SF100 across four H100 GPUs.

arXiv:2607. 02097v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large kernel depthwise convolutions achieve strong performance but suffer from significant degradation as kernel size grows due to irregular memory access from gather-based computation; while Large Kernel Acceleration (LKA) helps on small feature maps, it becomes counterproductive on large feature maps, even slower than non-accelerated implementations.
