arXiv:2606. 06510v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Conventional HPC dogma holds that native hardware FP64 silicon is the irreducible foundation of scientific computing -- the "holy grail" of double-precision simulation.
arXiv:2606. 23698v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: NVIDIA's Blackwell Ultra (B300) cuts FP64 vector throughput to ~1.
arXiv:2607. 14568v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A companion study ran a 35B mixture-of-experts model on a 2011 NVIDIA Tesla C2075 (Fermi, sm_20, 6GB) as a GPU-prefill/CPU-decode hybrid, because the 4-bit model did not fit in device memory (arXiv:2606.
arXiv:2608. 10103v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: High-performance Tensor Core kernels rely on a low-level PTX pipeline built from asynchronous data movement with cp.
arXiv:2605. 10886v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent GPU generations deliver significantly higher FLOPs using lower-precision arithmetic, such as FP8.
arXiv:2607. 25504v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Fine-grained weight pruning and activation sparsification have emerged as effective approaches for reducing the compute and memory cost of inference for Transformer models.
arXiv:2606. 18463v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Distributed stochastic gradient descent (SGD) is limited by communication rather than computation, since each iteration requires an AllReduce across processes.
arXiv:2607. 16241v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent large language models (LLMs) can generate custom CUDA kernels that appear to outperform PyTorch on benchmarks such as KernelBench.
arXiv:2608. 01536v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) increasingly rely on sparsity to reduce inference cost, but most prior work targets a single sparsity source-either weight or activation-and optimizes for batched multi-user inference.
arXiv:2608. 00029v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The performance of deep learning models at scale relies heavily on how effectively high-level mathematical operations are mapped to underlying physical hardware.
arXiv:2606. 09377v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Formal neural network verification -- proving that a network satisfies safety properties for \emph{all} inputs in a specified domain -- is bounded in practice by GPU memory: standard implementations of bound-propagation algorithms (IBP, CROWN, $\alpha$-CROWN) require weight and relaxation-coefficient matrices to reside entirely on one accelerator.
arXiv:2606. 14598v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Post-training INT8 (W8A8) quantization of diffusion transformers is widely deployed as a speed optimization, yet on consumer Ampere GPUs it is frequently slower than the FP8 and NF4 alternatives it is meant to beat.
