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:2604. 07472v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Serving large language model (LLM) inference in cloud environments requires jointly optimizing model selection, GPU provisioning, parallelism configuration, and workload routing under latency, accuracy, memory, and budget constraints.

arXiv:2607. 18253v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern language query routers improve inference efficiency by assigning each query to a model that balances response quality and monetary cost.

arXiv:2607. 08930v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Efficient serving of diffusion large language models (dLLMs) is hindered by convergence heterogeneity: when batching multiple requests, different sequences converge at different rates, causing faster requests to stall behind slower stragglers and introducing compute bubbles and tail latency.

arXiv:2606. 22902v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Real-world users typically have access to multiple Large Language Models (LLMs) from different providers, and these LLMs often excel at distinct domains, yet none dominate all.

arXiv:2606. 09514v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) incur high inference cost due to their depth and parameter scale.
