arXiv:2608. 08382v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As LLM inference shifts to multi-tenant GPU clusters, co-batching improves throughput but obscures per-tenant usage and limits control.

arXiv:2608. 08691v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Residential virtual power plants (VPPs) can provide grid flexibility by shifting household demand, but physical flexibility becomes dependable capacity only when residents authorize a plan and the promised response is delivered.

arXiv:2512. 20968v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Distributed attention is essential for scaling large language models (LLMs) to long contexts, yet existing methods either have limited parallelism or incur high communication costs.

arXiv:2607. 23191v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Fine-tuned code LLMs are routinely conditioned on a design-intent specification, but the correctness axis of such a signal -- a wrong intent rather than an absent one -- has not been tested, and the benefit of conditioning is usually scored with the same detector that defines the signal.
