DuetServe: Harmonizing Prefill and Decode for LLM Serving via Adaptive GPU Multiplexing
Lei Gao, Chaoyi Jiang, Hossein Entezari Zarch +3
Modern LLM serving systems must sustain high throughput while meeting strict latency SLOs across two distinct inference phases: compute-intensive prefill and memory-bound decode ph…
Compressed Video Aggregator: Content-driven Module for Efficient Micro-Video Recommendation
Yang Xiao, Huiyuan Chen, Kaiyuan Deng +6
We propose \textbf{Compressed Video Aggregator} (CVA), a lightweight micro-video recommendation module that decouples video information from preference learning. CVA first summariz…
DELTA: Dynamic Layer-Aware Token Attention for Efficient Long-Context Reasoning
Hossein Entezari Zarch, Lei Gao, Chaoyi Jiang +1
Large reasoning models (LRMs) achieve state-of-the-art performance on challenging benchmarks by generating long chains of intermediate steps, but their inference cost is dominated…
Fast NF4 Dequantization Kernels for Large Language Model Inference
Xiangbo Qi, Chaoyi Jiang, Murali Annavaram
Large language models (LLMs) have grown beyond the memory capacity of single GPU devices, necessitating quantization techniques for practical deployment. While NF4 (4-bit NormalFlo…
Striking the Right Balance between Compute and Copy: Improving LLM Inferencing Under Speculative Decoding
Arun Ramachandran, Ramaswamy Govindarajan, Murali Annavaram +4
With the skyrocketing costs of GPUs and their virtual instances in the cloud, there is a significant desire to use CPUs for large language model (LLM) inference. KV cache update, o…
DEL: Context-Aware Dynamic Exit Layer for Efficient Self-Speculative Decoding
Hossein Entezari Zarch, Lei Gao, Chaoyi Jiang +1
Speculative Decoding (SD) is a widely used approach to accelerate the inference of large language models (LLMs) without reducing generation quality. It operates by first using a co…
