    GoalEvolve: From Handcrafted Algorithm Priors to Goal-Driven Evolution of Physical Design Algorithms

    Haixu Liu, Lei Zhou, Yuhao Ren, Yumao Wu, Zhiang Wang

    cs.AR · cs.AI

    Physical design algorithms operate within tightly coupled, multi-stage optimization flows, where stage-local gains may vanish or induce downstream degradation. Existing program-evolution frameworks often rely on stage-local objectives or undifferentiated multi-metric feedback, which neither guarantee better final results nor identify which unmet requirement should guide the next iteration. We present GoalEvolve, a goal-driven framework that...

    Beyond Binary Priorities: Multi-Tier SLA Scheduling for Large Language Model Serving

    Anders Vestrum, Arya Raeesi, Hanna Roed

    cs.AR · cs.DC · cs.LG

    Modern LLM serving deployments must simultaneously satisfy heterogeneous service-level objectives (SLOs) across a diverse population of user tiers, ranging from latency-critical API calls to background batch processing. Llumnix introduced a dynamic, migration-capable multi-instance scheduler for LLM inference that achieves load balancing, defragmentation, prioritization, and auto-scaling through a unified "freeness" metric. However, Llumnix's...
