ServerBench is a benchmark that lets large language model (LLM) coding agents design and test specialized LLM serving systems. The benchmark evaluates agents on a single objective—maximizing latency‑qualified token value per dollar of GPU cost—using stateful replay to preserve session dependencies and independent verification to confirm system correctness. In experiments with 11 coding‑agent models, Claude Sonnet 5.5 achieved 2.97 dollars per dollar on Gemma E4B, outperforming the vLLM reference by 4.87×, and the study highlights key design insights such as coordinating capacity with load selection, interpreting performance feedback through relevant experiments, and verifying execution paths for reliable delivery.

Agentic Architect is a new framework that uses large language models to automatically evolve and optimize CPU microarchitectural designs. Starting from a seed design, the LLM proposes code changes, which are compiled, simulated, and evaluated against performance, area, and power constraints, with results feeding back into subsequent iterations. The framework was tested on prefetching, cache replacement, and branch prediction, achieving notable speedups and area reductions compared to state‑of‑the‑art designs.

AgentPerfBench is a new benchmarking suite designed to evaluate the inference performance of agentic large language models (LLMs) that handle multi‑turn, tool‑using, and context‑expanding tasks. It builds on real traces from agentic benchmarks such as SWE‑Bench and TerminalBench, and generates synthetic profiles that reflect realistic input/output lengths and turn counts. The suite also provides kernel‑level Nsight Compute traces and a multi‑dimensional roofline model to identify hardware bottlenecks and quantify the gap between traditional chat benchmarks and agentic workloads.

The paper introduces TraceDSE, an agentic design space exploration framework for jointly mapping AI inference workloads to heterogeneous edge SoCs and configuring each processing unit. Unlike traditional black-box optimization, TraceDSE uses a proposer‑critic loop powered by large language models and enriched with system execution traces to identify bottlenecks and refine design choices. Experiments on an Intel Meteor Lake SoC show that TraceDSE outperforms state‑of‑the‑art evolutionary and Bayesian methods, improving Pareto frontier hypervolume by up to 68% while reducing hardware evaluations by 6–9×.

MaxKernel is a multi‑agent system designed to generate high‑performance custom kernels for TPUs. It offers three paradigms: a Human‑in‑the‑Loop agent for collaborative design, an Autonomous agent that runs a fully automated optimization loop, and a Graph‑Based Autonomous Search for global exploration. All paradigms share specialized sub‑agents for planning, implementation, debugging, testing, and profiling, and the system consistently matches expert hand‑tuned baselines on the JaxBench suite and real‑world workloads.

UniACE is a unified framework that standardizes the evaluation of large language model (LLM) agents by representing each benchmark as an instruction–tool–environment triplet and running models through a shared, task‑agnostic harness in isolated runtimes. It preserves native success criteria, offers an offline mode for dynamic‑resource tasks, and standardizes efficiency metrics, execution records, and failure attribution. Applying UniACE to 7 benchmarks across 24 domains and 15 models revealed significant score shifts, ranking reversals, and sensitivity to evidence representation, highlighting the impact of evaluation configuration on reported agent performance.
