arXiv:2606. 00079v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) large language models reduce per-token computation through sparse expert activation, but their deployment remains memory-intensive because all expert weights must be kept resident in memory.

arXiv:2605. 06675v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large language models cache all previously computed key-value (KV) pairs during generation, and this KV cache grows linearly with sequence length, making it a primary memory bottleneck for serving.

Dynamic Expert Quantization (DynaExq) is a runtime-aware mixed-precision serving system designed for single‑GPU Mixture‑of‑Experts (MoE) inference under a hard high‑bandwidth memory (HBM) envelope. It treats the problem as an online, budget‑constrained precision allocation task, keeping the most frequently used experts at higher precision while relegating the rest to low‑precision fallbacks. By estimating expert hotness from router traces and asynchronously promoting or demoting experts, DynaExq maintains a fully materialized expert set during the forward pass, improving accuracy and throughput compared to static post‑training quantization and offloading/prefetch baselines.
whyItMatters":"DynaExq enables efficient deployment of large MoE models on memory‑limited GPUs by dynamically allocating precision based on runtime expert usage, thereby reducing memory footprint and latency while boosting accuracy and throughput."

arXiv:2608. 15383v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sparse mixture-of-experts (MoE) language models reduce arithmetic by activating only a small subset of experts per token, yet deployment still requires storing and moving the full expert bank.
