arXiv:2607. 17181v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Serverless multi-model LLM systems multiplex popularity-skewed model catalogs over shared GPU pools, yet typically schedule each request independently.
arXiv:2607. 08565v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLM scheduling is critical to serving, yet it remains unclear how well existing designs fit agentic serving--with LLM requests issued by agents instead of humans.
arXiv:2608. 12123v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLM-agent services repeatedly execute small deterministic transitions between model and tool calls: route an outcome, update state, and emit the next effect.
arXiv:2609.37626v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: No single way of parallelizing attention serves large language models well under all loads. Low concurrency favors tensor parallelism, many independe...
arXiv:2608. 06557v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The reasoning and agentic capabilities of large language models have expanded the range of applications they support, from short interactive exchanges to long, compute-heavy requests.
arXiv:2606. 09613v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multi-turn LLM agents interleave model calls with external tool invocations, shifting serving from stateless request processing to stateful program execution.
arXiv:2608. 16336v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern LLM serving deployments must simultaneously satisfy heterogeneous service-level objectives (SLOs) across a diverse population of user tiers, ranging from latency-critical API calls to background batch processing.
arXiv:2607. 02630v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Hardware accelerators now sit on the critical path of online serving.
arXiv:2608. 15127v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Agentic applications are shifting AI serving from isolated model inference to long-running workloads in which LLMs coordinate tools, environments, and persistent state.
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. 24506v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Emerging LLM services increasingly host many sparse MoE models, yet most models receive sparse requests and remain cold.
TOPAS is a Task‑Oriented Prefix‑Aware Scheduler designed for multi‑agent large language model serving. It jointly decides which agent prefixes to retain in a shared key‑value cache and which requests to schedule, balancing the reduction of each task’s longest remaining service path against the benefit of downstream prefix reuse while accounting for movement and preemption costs. Experiments on synthetic DAGs and MetaGPT software‑development workflows show that TOPAS can reduce mean and p99 job completion times by up to 39.8%/49.4% and 22.0%/26.6% respectively compared to the best baselines.
arXiv:2609.37062v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Dynamic layer skipping reduces LLM computation by allowing each token to execute only a subset of the model's layers. However, existing skippers rely...
