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:2608. 07964v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Load Balancing has emerged as a critical problem in expert-parallel distributed inference of Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models.
arXiv:2607. 24787v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models expand foundation model capacity through conditional expert activation, but their full expert pools remain difficult to deploy under limited accelerator memory.
arXiv:2608. 14205v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Load imbalance poses a major bottleneck to the efficiency of expert parallelism in distributed inference of Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models.
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.
arXiv:2606. 10493v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Local deployment of large Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models falls short of the service quality achieved in cloud-scale environments, even under low-concurrency workloads.
arXiv:2608. 13057v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In expert-parallel (EP) MoE serving, every layer synchronizes at the slowest GPU.
arXiv:2608. 12146v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Training Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models for reinforcement learning (RL) couples two load-balancing problems: sequence composition determines dense attention work in each data-parallel microbatch, while token routing determines sparse expert work on expert-parallel ranks.
arXiv:2607. 11586v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) large language models (LLM) activate only a small number of experts during inference, but token routing introduces persistent expert hotness skew: a small set of hot experts continuously receives most tokens, while the remaining experts are lightly loaded.
arXiv:2607. 24434v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) language models are attractive for end-device deployment because only a small subset of experts is active per token, but their routed expert weights often exceed accelerator memory.
arXiv:2606. 19025v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Pre-training Large Language Models (LLMs) typically demands large-scale infrastructure with tightly coupled hardware accelerators.
arXiv:2606. 24506v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Emerging LLM services increasingly host many sparse MoE models, yet most models receive sparse requests and remain cold.
arXiv:2602. 06932v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Speculative decoding can significantly accelerate LLM serving, yet most deployments today disentangle speculator training from serving, treating speculator training as a standalone offline modeling problem.
