MoE-Prefill: Zero Redundancy Overheads in MoE Prefill Serving

Zhaoyuan Su, Olatunji Ruwase, Karthik Ganesan +5

Production LLM workloads increasingly serve discriminative tasks, such as classification, recommendation, and verification, whose answers are read from the logits of a single prefi…

OWL: Overcoming Window Length-Dependence in Speculative Decoding for Long-Context Inputs

Jaeseong Lee, seung-won hwang, Aurick Qiao +3

Speculative decoding promises faster inference for large language models (LLMs), yet existing methods fail to generalize to real-world settings. Benchmarks typically assume short c…

Shift Parallelism: Low-Latency, High-Throughput LLM Inference for Dynamic Workloads

Mert Hidayetoglu, Aurick Qiao, Michael Wyatt +3

Efficient parallelism is necessary for achieving low-latency, high-throughput inference with large language models (LLMs). Tensor parallelism (TP) is the state-of-the-art method fo…

Arctic Inference with Shift Parallelism: Fast and Efficient Open Source Inference System for Enterprise AI

Samyam Rajbhandari, Mert Hidayetoglu, Aurick Qiao +5

Inference is now the dominant AI workload, yet existing systems force trade-offs between latency, throughput, and cost. Arctic Inference, an open-source vLLM plugin from Snowflake…

Arctic Long Sequence Training: Scalable And Efficient Training For Multi-Million Token Sequences

Stas Bekman, Samyam Rajbhandari, Michael Wyatt +5

Long sequences are critical for applications like RAG, long document summarization, multi-modality, etc., and modern LLMs, like Llama 4 Scout, support max sequence length of up to…

Efficiently Scaling LLM Reasoning with Certaindex

Yichao Fu, Junda Chen, Siqi Zhu +8

Test-time reasoning algorithms such as chain-of-thought, self-consistency, and MCTS enhance LLM problem-solving but can wastefully generate many tokens without improving accuracy.…

SuffixDecoding: Extreme Speculative Decoding for Emerging AI Applications

Gabriele Oliaro, Zhihao Jia, Daniel Campos +1

Speculative decoding is widely adopted to reduce latency in large language model (LLM) inference by leveraging smaller draft models capable of handling diverse user tasks. However,…

SwiftKV: Fast Prefill-Optimized Inference with Knowledge-Preserving Model Transformation

Aurick Qiao, Zhewei Yao, Samyam Rajbhandari +1

LLM inference for enterprise applications, such as summarization, RAG, and code-generation, typically observe much longer prompt than generations, leading to high prefill cost and…

STUN: Structured-Then-Unstructured Pruning for Scalable MoE Pruning

Jaeseong Lee, seung-won hwang, Aurick Qiao +3

Mixture-of-experts (MoEs) have been adopted for reducing inference costs by sparsely activating experts in Large language models (LLMs). Despite this reduction, the massive number…

Efficient LLM Scheduling by Learning to Rank

Yichao Fu, Siqi Zhu, Runlong Su +3

In Large Language Model (LLM) inference, the output length of an LLM request is typically regarded as not known a priori. Consequently, most LLM serving systems employ a simple Fir…

LLM360: Towards Fully Transparent Open-Source LLMs

Zhengzhong Liu, Aurick Qiao, Willie Neiswanger +25

The recent surge in open-source Large Language Models (LLMs), such as LLaMA, Falcon, and Mistral, provides diverse options for AI practitioners and researchers. However, most LLMs…

Fault Tolerance in Iterative-Convergent Machine Learning

Aurick Qiao, Bryon Aragam, Bingjing Zhang +1

Machine learning (ML) training algorithms often possess an inherent self-correcting behavior due to their iterative-convergent nature. Recent systems exploit this property to achie…
