Disaggregated inference is modeled as three games whose price of anarchy rises at GPU saturation; an adaptive controller reduces the empirical PoA-hat by up to 3.1x on real clusters at modest throughput cost.
ViBE co-optimizes expert placement with measured GPU performance variability in MoE inference to cut execution-time imbalance, delivering 14% better SLO attainment and up to 45% lower P90 TTFT.
Power capping is illusory in LLM decode as memory-bound operation leaves power headroom untouched on 700 W GPUs, while SM clock locking saves up to 32% energy and three DVFS classes appear across attention types.
Hosted open-weight LLM APIs function as time-varying heterogeneous services rather than fixed model artifacts, with demand concentrated, supply-use mismatches, and task-specific routing yielding major cost and throughput gains.
Multimodal LLMs process code as images to achieve up to 8x token compression, with visual cues like syntax highlighting aiding tasks and clone detection remaining resilient or even improving under compression.
OmniPilot combines conformal quantile regression with OOD detection to rank LLM serving configurations on mixed GPUs, reporting 6.2% MAPE throughput prediction and 95% top-1 accuracy on 460 benchmark runs while abstaining on unsupported cases.
KernelSight-LM simulates LLM inference at kernel granularity with cross-generation (12.1% per-kernel error) and target-measured (3.8% error) tiers, yielding end-to-end median errors of 15.4%/12.8%/3.0% and 14.3%/6.2%/2.7% for TTFT/TPOT/throughput across six model families.
Vortex provides a programmable frontend and backend for sparse attention in LLM serving, delivering up to 3.46x throughput over full attention while preserving accuracy.
EnergyLens predicts multi-GPU LLM inference energy consumption with 9-13% MAPE and identifies configurations with up to 52x energy efficiency differences.
Chakra introduces a standardized graph-based execution trace representation for distributed ML workloads along with supporting tools to enable benchmarking, analysis, generation, and co-design across simulators and hardware.
Dooly reduces LLM inference profiling GPU-hours by 56.4% across 12 models while keeping simulation MAPE under 5% for TTFT and 8% for TPOT by making profiling configuration-agnostic and redundancy-aware.
BalanceRoute uses a piecewise-linear F-score (with optional short lookahead) for sticky request routing in LLM serving, reducing DP imbalance and raising end-to-end throughput versus vLLM baselines on production and Azure traces.
A queueing model derives stability conditions for LLM inference services under combined compute and KV cache memory limits, with experimental validation showing typical deviations under 10%.
MemExplorer optimizes heterogeneous memory systems for agentic LLM inference on NPUs and reports up to 2.3x higher energy efficiency than baselines under fixed power budgets.
HybridFlow combines single- and multi-controller paradigms with a 3D-HybridEngine to deliver 1.53x to 20.57x higher throughput for various RLHF algorithms compared to prior systems.
Omni-Flow introduces a three-layer abstraction (Control Flow, Data Flow, Compute Flow) for unified orchestration and KV cache sharing in multimodal inference pipelines.
Organizes the heterogeneous LLM prefill-decode design space along four axes and extracts three boundary decisions with guidance on precision, KV representation, and ownership.
AlignedServe uses prefix-aware batching, large CPU in-flight request pools, batch scheduling, and GPU-to-GPU KV prefetching to raise decoding throughput up to 1.98x and cut latency up to 7.4x versus prior serving systems.
ODMA raises KV-cache utilization by up to 19.25% and throughput by 23-27% on Cambricon MLU accelerators by dynamically adjusting prediction buckets and using a safety pool for LLM serving.
ServeGen characterizes production LLM inference workloads across model types and generates realistic per-client composed workloads that reduce under-provisioning by 50% in a production validation.
ITME uses CXL-hybrid memories for byte-addressable remote memory expansion in LLM inference, achieving up to 35.7% throughput improvement over conventional CPU-offloading.
The paper defines Computational Token Economics and introduces the Token Economics Trilemma as a framework for trade-offs in granularity, real-time performance, and optimality, while outlining a research agenda for three challenge areas.
The paper introduces a four-layer technical architecture for token-operations-oriented inference optimization in large models and reviews key technologies and industry status at each layer.
