Topological Coherence for Self-evolving Multi-agent Systems

The paper introduces TOCOMAS, a Topology‑Coherent Multi‑Agent System that enforces topological coherence—consistent responsibility, handoff, and memory boundaries—within self‑evolving multi‑agent systems. TOCOMAS grounds task graphs in tool interfaces, groups compatible task nodes into reusable responsibility domains, and derives collaboration and memory visibility rules that respect task dependencies. In experiments on BBEH, WorkBench, SWE‑Bench‑Verified, and CoMemBench, TOCOMAS outperforms baseline methods in task success, verified progress, handoffs, and memory isolation.

UniACE: A Unified Framework for Evaluating LLM Agentic Capabilities

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.

CoMIC: Collaborative Memory and Insights Circulation for Long-Horizon LLM Agents in Cloud-Edge Systems

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.

MemoryArena: Benchmarking Agent Memory in Interdependent Multi-Session Agentic Tasks

MemoryArena is a new evaluation gym that benchmarks agent memory in interdependent multi‑session tasks. Unlike prior benchmarks that test memorization or single‑session action in isolation, MemoryArena requires agents to acquire memory while interacting with the environment and then use that memory to guide future decisions across a range of tasks such as web navigation, planning, information search, and formal reasoning. The benchmark reveals that agents excelling on existing long‑context memory tests perform poorly here, highlighting a gap in current memory evaluation methods.

ContextWeave: A Real-World Workflow Benchmark

arXiv:2608. 04830v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Memory is essential as language agents move from isolated tasks to long-horizon, stateful workflows, yet existing evaluations often reduce it to retrieval or question answering.

Workload-Aware Caching for Multi-Agent Systems

arXiv:2607. 20495v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-agent systems decompose complex tasks into directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) of specialized agent executions, creating natural opportunities for caching intermediate results across queries.
