arXiv:2607. 05272v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Inference serving systems must balance throughput and latency under bursty, heterogeneous workloads, yet the industry standard remains static batching policies that require manual tuning and cannot adapt to shifting traffic.

arXiv:2607. 02941v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-product kitting delivery imposes significant challenges for real-time scheduling in hybrid manufacturing systems that integrate processing and assembly, as dynamic order arrivals simultaneously alter supply dependencies and the set of feasible job-machine assignments.

arXiv:2606. 01162v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Workflow scheduling in cloud computing demands the intelligent allocation of dynamically arriving, graph-structured workflows with varying deadlines onto ever-changing virtual machine resources.

Inference serving systems must balance throughput and latency under bursty, heterogeneous workloads, yet the industry standard remains static batching policies that require manual tuning and cannot adapt to shifting traffic. We investigate whether reinforcement learning (RL) can learn adaptive batching and routing policies that outperform these heuristics, training REINFORCE and PPO agents on a discrete-event simulator validated against queuing theory and production traces (Azure Functions, BurstGPT).
arXiv:2505. 23131v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study the problem of assigning operations in a dataflow graph to devices to minimize execution time in a work-conserving system, with emphasis on complex machine learning workloads.
