Non-Parametric Dual-Manifold Mapping via 8-Bit Bounded Transformation Matrices: Challenging FP-centric Hardware Paradigms in Low-Energy AI

Hardware AI ×

The paper addresses the problem of high energy costs from floating-point arithmetic in deep learning hardware. It proposes a non-parametric, training-free framework using 8-bit signed integer transformation matrices and bitwise logic for dual-manifold mapping. Experimental evidence shows near-perfect reconstruction under 90% truncation sparsity and 20% random node destruction, demonstrating extreme holographic resilience. This matters because it challenges the necessity of dense, floating-point-centric GPU accelerators, enabling a shift toward low-energy neuromorphic edge-computing.

Maestro: Workload-Aware Cross-Cluster Scheduling for LLM-Based Multi-Agent Systems

Jinghao Wang, Xiao Zhou, Xiaoyang Sun, Yihui Zhang 2026-06-14
Workload Scheduling LLM Agent

Maestro addresses the problem of high resource consumption and scheduling inefficiencies in deploying LLM-based multi-agent systems under strict GPU budgets. The method uses agent semantics to predict output length and memory usage, enabling hierarchical scheduling with dynamic model co-location, latency-aware routing, and workflow-aware prioritization. Experimental evidence shows Maestro reduces KV-reservation HBM by 67.2% and improves high-contention SLO attainment over EDF by 23.6 percentage points. This matters because it enables efficient, scalable deployment of complex multi-agent workflows in resource-constrained cloud environments.

Characterizing Software Aging in GPU-Based LLM Serving Systems

GPU LLM Serving ×

The paper addresses the problem of software aging in GPU-based LLM serving systems, which differ from traditional CPU-centric systems due to heterogeneous hardware and highly variable workloads. The method involves a 216-hour empirical campaign across six co-located deployments with identical stress, monitoring host, device, and client metrics and applying a statistical pipeline for autocorrelation and multiple testing. Experimental evidence shows statistically significant memory aging in all deployments, with leak rates strongly dependent on the serving runtime and configuration. This matters because it provides a reproducible framework bridging software aging and rejuvenation research with LLM serving, enabling future mitigation strategies.

ReSCom: A Reconfigurable Spiking Neural Network Accelerator Using Stochastic Computing

Ali Alipour Fereidani, Mohammad Rasoul Roshanshah, Saeed Safari 2026-06-14
Neural Network Accelerator

ReSCom addresses the high power and area costs of Spiking Neural Network (SNN) hardware by introducing a reconfigurable accelerator that uses stochastic computing for multiplication while preserving exact fixed-point addition and subtraction. The method employs a unified neuron design supporting IF, LIF, and Synaptic models, enabling runtime trade-offs between accuracy, latency, and energy. On MNIST inference with a Xilinx Artix-7 FPGA, ReSCom achieves 92.80% accuracy at 0.05 mJ per image and 100 MHz, outperforming recent state-of-the-art implementations in energy efficiency. This matters because it demonstrates that stochastic computing can stabilize SNN inference while providing explicit, dynamic control over accuracy-latency-energy trade-offs for resource-constrained edge applications.
