Generating a Consistent Enterprise: Synthesis and Reference-Free Evaluation of Multi-System Business Data

Abstract

Synthetic relational data is normally produced by a model trained on a real dataset, and its quality is measured as the distance to that dataset. This paper describes a generator that has no real dataset at either end. Given an industry, a company size, a business model, a set of business applications, and a random seed, it produces a complete fictional enterprise: a workforce, a customer base, sales deals, support tickets, recorded calls, chat messages, and documents, all consistent with one another. One entity graph is projected into the native formats of 66 business products, so the same customer appears in the CRM, the support desk, and the call system under one identity. Because no real counterpart exists, realism is built in from cited reference statistics and verified by reference-free measurement: a five-axis scorecard of 28 statistical checks, an adversarial detector that hunts for the marks of synthetic generation, and a set of soundness checks that include a classifier test against an independently shuffled copy of the data. Because these instruments existed before the generator was tuned, progress is measured under a fixed yardstick: over 23 generated companies, mean realism climbed from 60.3 to 99.1, the weakest company from 41.1 to 94.9, and the detector, which initially flagged 55.2% of all records, now flags none. The scores hold on a seed never used during development. A second generator builds relational databases from a list of business questions. It forces qualifying rows for each answerable question, adds controlled near misses, and computes exact labels from the finished tables. The generator runs as a hosted service at https://console.era.eon.io. A company built there to a specification is served through its simulators over MCP and REST, and the simulators are also published as container images for offline use

Decoupling Readiness from Release for Tail-Aware Scheduling of Agentic LLM Workflows

Agentic LLM workflows consist of sequences of model turns interleaved with tool interactions, so their end-to-end completion time depends not only on inference speed but also on when ready turns are released. Most runtimes release each turn immediately upon readiness. Under contention, this eager release policy can accumulate released but unfinished work; once submitted, those turns can no longer be reordered by the workflow-level policy, increasing tail latency. We present a tail-risk-aware turn release scheduling method that jointly decides which ready turn to release next and how much released but unfinished work to maintain. The method uses a mean--Conditional Value-at-Risk (CVaR) objective to capture the evolving tail risk of unfinished workflows, incorporates online estimates of turn work when prioritizing ready turns, and adapts the released work budget to observed queue pressure. We evaluate the method using real agent execution traces from software engineering tasks across multiple LLMs and workflow arrival rates. The method performs comparably to eager release under light load and substantially reduces the P95 of workflow flow time under contention, achieving up to a \(3.50\times\) speedup.

Demystifying the Privacy-Utility Trade-off in LLM Interactions

The integration of Large Language Models into daily tasks relies on context-rich instructions, inevitably exposing sensitive user information. Current privacy-preserving methods typically employ context-agnostic static rules, causing severe utility degradation. However, the specific mechanisms governing how sanitization impacts downstream performance remain largely underexplored. To address this, we conduct a systematic analysis to deconstruct the privacy-utility trade-off, uncovering three underlying mechanisms: (1) Context-Dependent Utility, which first establishes when to sanitize by revealing that data value shifts from critical constraints to dispensable noise based on user intent; (2) Strategic Adaptation, which subsequently determines how to sanitize by dictating that the choice between removal and replacement depends on the task's reliance on factual integrity versus structural coherence; and (3) Combinatorial Interplay, which finally extends the protection scope by demonstrating that attributes form a semantic web of synergistic dependencies or antagonistic redundancies. Guided by these insights, we introduce an intent-driven local protection framework. By distilling a lightweight model Veilmind-4B to drive a dynamic extraction-sanitization-restoration pipeline, our approach reaches a low-leakage privacy point while preserving substantially higher response utility than existing privacy-oriented baselines, advancing the privacy-utility trade-off toward the Pareto frontier.

Defining AI Agents: A Compendium of Criteria, Metrics, and Benchmarks

The term agent in artificial intelligence lacks a standard definition, complicating the evaluation, comparison, and reproducibility of AI agent research. We address this ambiguity through a survey organized around five dimensions of agenticness: environmental interaction, learning and adaptation, autonomy, goal-directed behavior, and temporal coherence. For each dimension, we examine how the underlying capability has been conceptualized across prior work and synthesize the metrics, benchmarks, and evaluation frameworks used to assess it. This review provides a structured account of the current landscape of agent evaluation, highlighting both established approaches and areas where evaluation remains limited or inconsistent. We additionally introduce the Agent Compendium, a public-facing digital resource that organizes and extends the evaluation methods identified through this review. Together, the survey and compendium provide a common structure for evaluating and comparing agent capabilities across AI systems, supporting more reproducible research, clearer communication, and more systematic study of artificial agents.
