AIPC: Evidence-Guided Agent Workflows for PyTorch Project Deployment

The paper introduces AIPC, an AI‑powered method that uses evidence‑guided agents to automate the deployment of PyTorch inference projects on dedicated accelerators such as on‑device NPUs. AIPC orchestrates model adaptation, artifact building, on‑target execution, accuracy repair, and performance optimization through structured skills and toolchain evidence, addressing cross‑layer challenges in model formats, quantization, and runtime interfaces. Experiments on Qualcomm QAIRT demonstrate significant speedups and high accuracy across vision, speech, LLM, and diffusion models, with some runs requiring no human intervention.

JIT-Agent: Scaling Harness Intelligence via Just-in-Time Harness Evolution

JIT‑Agent is a model that automatically generates task‑adaptive agent harnesses for any off‑the‑shelf LLM, replacing manual, task‑specific harness design. It learns to compose, repair, and evolve harnesses using a fixed four‑module protocol, and its use boosts performance on benchmarks such as DeepSearchQA and OdysseyBench, outperforming several mature agent runtimes. The approach demonstrates that harness intelligence can be trained, transferred, and compounded independently of model scaling.

HoliBench: A Cross-Platform Benchmarking and Deployment Toolkit for Foundation Models in CPS-IoT Applications

HoliBench is a modular benchmarking and deployment toolkit that jointly measures accuracy, latency, and energy for foundation models across a wide range of devices, from single-board computers to GPU servers. It provides a platform abstraction layer that calibrates cross-device measurements and supports multiple model modalities, inference engines, and quantization levels. Using HoliBench, the authors evaluated 20 models on 7 device types, revealing tradeoffs such as limited latency gains from quantization on low‑precision hardware and diminishing accuracy returns relative to energy consumption, while also showing that single-model profiles can predict multi-model pipeline performance within a few percent.

Benchmarking AI Agents for Hardware Design Automation via MCP Tool Calling

The paper investigates whether locally deployed large language models can automate hardware design workflows that involve repetitive, dependency-ordered operations using specialized tools. A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server is created to emulate a proprietary hardware design tool, and a benchmark tests single and multi-step edits, invalid requests, misspelled prompts, and multi-server contexts. Seven open-source models are evaluated across different pipeline choices, revealing that strong models can nearly fully cover expected calls, but reliability hinges on task structure and agent configuration, with comprehensive tool descriptions reducing failures and multi-agent setups aiding weaker models at the cost of extra calls.

OpenGCUA: Toward a Fully Open Stack for Generalist Computer Use

OpenGCUA is an open‑stack project that aims to make generalist computer‑use agents (GCUs) fully accessible to the research community. The first release focuses on code execution, allowing agents to use intermediate results and programming skills directly in computer interaction, and introduces harness‑to‑model decision transfer to shift observation and task‑state decisions from fixed rules to the model. On the OSWorld‑v2 benchmark, the full configuration boosts task scores for all eight evaluated models—including GPT‑6 Astra and Claude Opus 5—by an average of +19.6 partial‑score points and cuts steps per task by 53 % compared to batched GUI‑only execution, while also providing a real‑device harness and cross‑device SDK. whyItMatters":"By releasing the full stack, OpenGCUA enables systematic study and broader experimentation with generalist computer‑use agents, addressing the current limitation of closed implementations and demonstrating significant performance gains across diverse models."
