CUCo: An Agentic Framework for Compute and Communication Co-design

arXiv:2603. 02376v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Computation and communication in distributed LLM training and inference are traditionally optimized in isolation; expert-crafted systems such as DeepEP, FLUX, and TokenWeave show the potential of co-design but require deep systems expertise and hardware-specific tuning; CUCo is an agentic framework that automates compute-communication co-design of CUDA kernels by combining a structured design-space formalization with a correctness-first fast-path agent for reliable baselines and an evolution-driven slow-path agent for high-performance strategies, achieving up to 1.

Tile-Level Activation Overlap for Efficient LLM Inference

arXiv:2607. 02521v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: SwiGLU is the dominant MLP activation in modern large language models, yet its intermediate tensor materialization costs 9-37% of MLP execution time.
