The paper introduces STEPGATE, an uncertainty‑aware handoff framework that evaluates each step of a small language model (SLM) agent and selectively escalates difficult steps to a stronger model. On a 52‑task single‑step benchmark, the Qwen2.5‑1.5B/7B pair achieved 82.7% task success with only 30.8% escalation, outperforming local‑only and random escalation baselines. In multi‑turn tests, STEPGATE reached 69.0% trajectory success and 84.0% action success while using only 30.0% cloud actions, demonstrating that step‑level escalation can close much of the performance gap to a stronger backend with fewer remote tokens.

Agentic World Modeling (AWM) redefines next-observation prediction as a multi-turn evidence-acquisition task, allowing agents to query a real environment safely and construct observations without mutating shared state. Integrated with trajectory-level test-time scaling, AWM enables parallel exploration over a single shared environment, outperforming single-shot simulation by 40.07% and trained world-model baselines by 12.36% on benchmarks such as τ-bench, AppWorld, and OfficeBench. This approach provides a practical foundation for safe and scalable agentic test-time scaling in shared, non-resettable environments.

OrchSLM is a routing framework that unifies non‑interactive orchestration methods for small language models (SLMs). It allows heterogeneous SLMs to independently generate candidate solutions while a router manages their cached outputs without further model interaction. By systematically probing OrchSLM, the study shows how orchestration behavior depends on task structure, model‑pool composition, and multi‑agent consensus.

Multi-turn LLM agents interleave model calls with external tool invocations, shifting serving from stateless request processing to stateful program execution. Serving these workloads requires scheduling, KV-cache management, and routing policies that use program-level context, including turn dependencies, tool-induced gaps, and reusable KV state.
arXiv:2606. 00756v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deploying lightweight Large Language Model (LLM) agents on edge servers can reduce latency and move agentic services closer to users, but resource-constrained edge models often struggle with long-horizon tasks that require persistent memory, subgoal tracking, and reflection.

arXiv:2606. 02862v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The rise of Large Language Models (LLMs) has enabled agentic AI capable of complex reasoning and tool use; however, deploying such autonomy in pervasive computing environments remains challenging due to the strict memory and energy constraints of embedded microcontrollers.
