FlexP-SFT introduces an aggregation-free framework for personalized split federated fine-tuning of large language models, eliminating the client-side aggregation step that traditionally causes communication bottlenecks and straggler issues. The method employs a layer‑flexible alignment strategy to balance personalization and generalization without global synchronization, and formulates split‑ratio selection as a resource‑aware discrete optimization problem. Experiments demonstrate that FlexP-SFT improves both accuracy and latency compared to baselines, achieving a superior resource‑accuracy trade‑off.

The paper introduces Block Parallelism (BP) and Context‑Sharded Block Parallelism (CSBP) to improve training efficiency for Block Diffusion Language Models (BDLMs) with long contexts. By assigning each corrupted‑block computation to a separate rank and sharding the shared clean sequence, CSBP reduces communication overhead and memory usage while preserving training semantics. Experiments on 16 H200 GPUs and 8 H100 GPUs show throughput gains of up to 1.61× and 7.59×, respectively, and higher benchmark pass rates in practical fine‑tuning scenarios.
