arXiv:2608. 13057v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In expert-parallel (EP) MoE serving, every layer synchronizes at the slowest GPU.
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: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:2607. 22785v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Apple-Silicon SoCs share CPU, GPU, and Neural Engine over one unified memory system, raising the question of whether transformer inference can be accelerated by splitting single operators across units.
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.
arXiv:2608. 05944v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We report operational experience full-fine-tuning a 32.
arXiv:2606. 04101v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large-scale expert parallelism (EP) is becoming pivotal for training and serving frontier MoE models, but it also amplifies device-level expert load imbalance into compute stragglers, token all-to-all bottlenecks, and activation-memory spikes.
arXiv:2607. 02630v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Hardware accelerators now sit on the critical path of online serving.
We report operational experience full-fine-tuning a 32. 76B-parameter dense model (Qwen3-32B) on 16 x NVIDIA B300 (two nodes, FSDP / ZeRO-3) -- among the first published field accounts on this accelerator.
arXiv:2607. 21535v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Speculative decoding accelerates autoregressive generation by having a cheap draft propose tokens that a target verifies in parallel.
arXiv:2607. 04668v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: On-device LLM decoding is a hard-barriered CPU-SIMD computation that wants every core for milliseconds per token, while the rest of the OS wants those same cores continuously.
arXiv:2605. 20982v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: AlltoAll dispatch is the dominant bottleneck of MoE expert parallelism, and the interconnect community has responded with four families of mitigations: predictive sample placement, adaptive expert relayout, hierarchical collectives, and EP-aware topology.
Speculative decoding accelerates autoregressive generation by having a cheap draft propose tokens that a target verifies in parallel. Frontier models increasingly ship a built-in Multi-Token-Prediction (MTP/NEXTN) draft head under the assumption that the draft is negligibly cheap.
