The paper introduces 3D-MoE, a hardware–software co‑designed system that optimizes Mixture‑of‑Experts (MoE) decoding on 3D‑stacked near‑memory processing (NMP) by exploiting expert complementarity. It groups experts offline, maps them locally to balance load, and uses a lightweight Collaborative Memory‑Network to stream hot expert weights, achieving an average 4.63× speedup over expert‑parallelism and 1.58×–1.86× throughput gains over existing NMP baselines with only a 2.11% area increase.
arXiv:2607. 11586v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) large language models (LLM) activate only a small number of experts during inference, but token routing introduces persistent expert hotness skew: a small set of hot experts continuously receives most tokens, while the remaining experts are lightly loaded.

arXiv:2608. 07964v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Load Balancing has emerged as a critical problem in expert-parallel distributed inference of Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models.
Dynamic Expert Quantization (DynaExq) is a runtime-aware mixed-precision serving system designed for single‑GPU Mixture‑of‑Experts (MoE) inference under a hard high‑bandwidth memory (HBM) envelope. It treats the problem as an online, budget‑constrained precision allocation task, keeping the most frequently used experts at higher precision while relegating the rest to low‑precision fallbacks. By estimating expert hotness from router traces and asynchronously promoting or demoting experts, DynaExq maintains a fully materialized expert set during the forward pass, improving accuracy and throughput compared to static post‑training quantization and offloading/prefetch baselines. whyItMatters":"DynaExq enables efficient deployment of large MoE models on memory‑limited GPUs by dynamically allocating precision based on runtime expert usage, thereby reducing memory footprint and latency while boosting accuracy and throughput."

arXiv:2607. 24434v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) language models are attractive for end-device deployment because only a small subset of experts is active per token, but their routed expert weights often exceed accelerator memory.

arXiv:2606. 15453v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) based large language models (LLMs), such as Qwen and DeepSeek, have recently emerged as an effective approach to improving model capacity without proportionally increasing computational cost.
The paper introduces Ban&Pick, a post‑training, plug‑and‑play routing strategy for Sparse Mixture‑of‑Experts large language models. It identifies and reinforces a small group of highly influential experts while dynamically pruning redundant ones, leading to accuracy gains across math, code, and reasoning benchmarks. Experiments on DeepSeek and Qwen3 show notable performance improvements and a 1.25× inference speedup without retraining or architectural changes.
