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.
By Nitin Kedia, Saurabh Agarwal, Myungjin Lee, Aditya Akella
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: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:2606. 09613v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multi-turn LLM agents interleave model calls with external tool invocations, shifting serving from stateless request processing to stateful program execution.
By Rakibul Hasan Rajib, Mengxin Zheng, Qian Lou
Multi-turn LLM agents interleave model calls with external tool invocations, shifting serving from stateless request processing to stateful program execution. Serving these workloads requires scheduling, KV-cache management, and routing policies that use program-level context, including turn dependencies, tool-induced gaps, and reusable KV state.
arXiv:2607. 08565v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLM scheduling is critical to serving, yet it remains unclear how well existing designs fit agentic serving--with LLM requests issued by agents instead of humans.

arXiv:2608. 14624v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-agent LLM systems have emerged as an important deployment paradigm for AI services, where each user request is decomposed into a sequence of specialized agents.

arXiv:2508. 06133v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study offline scheduling for large language model (LLM) serving under a fixed KV-cache memory budget, where requests have heterogeneous prompt (prefill) and response (decode) lengths.

arXiv:2607. 22578v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The proliferation of Large Language Models (LLMs) has shifted serving systems from processing isolated requests to orchestrating high-concurrency, multi-tenant agentic workflows.

arXiv:2606. 11440v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing multi-agent LLM orchestration methods, ranging from brute-force ensembles to learned routers, select models and topologies based on task and model features.
