arXiv:2604. 26968v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Key-value (KV) cache memory management is the primary bottleneck limiting throughput and cost-efficiency in large-scale GPU inference serving.
By Sanjeev Rao Ganjihal
arXiv:2606. 01502v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Frontier LLMs increasingly decide what a query attends to with a sparse-attention indexer that picks a few KV-cache blocks per query: attention's unit is now a small, reusable chunk.
By Bole Ma, Jan Eitzinger, Harald K\"ostler, Gerhard Wellein
arXiv:2606. 21633v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The KV cache dominates GPU memory in long-context LLM serving, crowding out batch capacity and leaving GPU compute idle.

arXiv:2606. 30709v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Hierarchical Global Attention (HGA) is a drop-in replacement for dense causal attention in pretrained long-context transformers.

arXiv:2607. 02043v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Disaggregated LLM serving runs prefill and decode on separate GPU pools to keep the two phases from interfering.

arXiv:2606. 06302v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Multi-turn LLM serving accumulates dialogue history whose Key-Value (KV) cache grows with every turn and every user, quickly exceeding the model weights themselves and making memory -- not compute -- the binding constraint on throughput.

arXiv:2608. 06557v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The reasoning and agentic capabilities of large language models have expanded the range of applications they support, from short interactive exchanges to long, compute-heavy requests.

arXiv:2608. 12123v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLM-agent services repeatedly execute small deterministic transitions between model and tool calls: route an outcome, update state, and emit the next effect.

arXiv:2605. 21312v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Modern LLM serving is no longer homogeneous or monolithic.
By Yicheng Feng, Xin Tan, Yangtao Deng, Yimin Jiang, Yibo Zhu, Hong Xu
arXiv:2608. 15127v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Agentic applications are shifting AI serving from isolated model inference to long-running workloads in which LLMs coordinate tools, environments, and persistent state.

arXiv:2607. 14541v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing GPU kernel generation benchmarks draw problems from synthetic or curated sources that diverge from deployed workloads.

arXiv:2606. 28565v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As large language models (LLMs) move into production serving, practitioners must rapidly evaluate inference performance across diverse hardware, models, and serving parameters to meet cost and latency targets.
