Hardware Acceleration of Block-Diffusion LLM for Edge Devices
Wei-Hsing Huang, Kiseok Lee, Ming-Yen Lee +7
Single-stream (batch-one) edge inference cannot amortize weight traffic across requests. Full-attention diffusion LLMs recompute the entire sequence at every step; native block dif…

Cross-Layer Analysis of Thermal Tuning Stalls in Wafer-Scale Optical Interconnects for LLM MoE Training
Seongwon Yoon, Pin-Jun Chen, Shimeng Yu
Mixture-of-experts (MoE) training depends heavily on all-to-all communication, which wafer-scale optical interconnects with dense wavelength-division multiplexing can serve. Their…
