Federation of Experts: Communication Efficient Distributed Inference for Large Language Models

The paper introduces Federation of Experts (FoE), a new architecture that reorganizes the mixture-of-experts (MoE) block in transformer layers into multiple MoE clusters. Each cluster handles a single KV head, and expert parallelism is applied within clusters while a sum operation synchronizes post‑attention residuals across clusters. FoE eliminates all‑to‑all communication on a single GPU and limits it to intra‑node communication in multi‑node setups, leading to significant reductions in inference latency and throughput improvements on LongBench.
