UCCL-Zip: Lossless Compression Supercharged GPU Communication
Shuang Ma, Chon Lam Lao, Zhiying Xu +8
The rapid growth of large language models (LLMs) has made GPU communication a critical bottleneck. While prior work reduces communication volume via quantization or lossy compressi…
UCCL-EP: Portable Expert-Parallel Communication
Ziming Mao, Yihan Zhang, Chihan Cui +9
Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) workloads rely on expert parallelism (EP) to achieve high GPU efficiency. State-of-the-art EP communication systems such as DeepEP demonstrate strong perfo…
LEANN: A Low-Storage Vector Index
Yichuan Wang, Zhifei Li, Shu Liu +10
Embedding-based vector search underpins many important applications, such as recommendation and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG). It relies on vector indices to enable efficien…
An Extensible Software Transport Layer for GPU Networking
Yang Zhou, Zhongjie Chen, Ziming Mao +11
Fast-evolving machine learning (ML) workloads have increasing requirements for networking. However, host network transport on RDMA NICs is hard to evolve, causing problems for ML w…
