Application-Driven Architecture Exploration for Cross-Layer Heterogeneous Systems

AI and HPC infrastructure increasingly serves workload portfolios that combine dense tensor computation, sparse kernels, large memory footprints, and communication-intensive collectives. Supporting these portfolios requires coordinated choices across accelerators, memory tiers, scale-up fabrics, and cluster networks. The resulting Cross-layer Heterogeneous System (XHS) design space is difficult to explore: hardware choices change legal task mappings, while rack power, switch radix, cabling, and cost constraints invalidate many candidates. We present CHASE, an application-driven framework that searches physically feasible XHS architectures through the workloads they must execute. CHASE represents candidates as hierarchical typed graphs and rejects designs that violate deployment constraints. It avoids intractable joint hardware-mapping search with a decoupled two-level loop: an inner mapper translates hardware-independent workload DAGs into topology-aware event traces, a calibrated event-driven simulator evaluates each mapping, and an outer telemetry-guided optimizer evolves the hardware graph. We evaluate CHASE on sparse-computing and LLM workloads. Its mapper remains within 6.06% of exhaustive optima while reducing mapping time by 60.5% on average relative to PEFT. Compute-model errors average 4.4-7.5%, and communication validation reproduces key trends across physical platforms. The outer search reaches near-global optima within 64 iterations. End-to-end case studies show that sparse workloads favor criticality-aware heterogeneous pods, whereas LLM inference favors scale-up islands; the resulting designs deliver 6.20$\times$ and 2.12$\times$ geomean speedups, respectively, while reducing cost and power relative to the baselines.

AgentOmnia: Scaling Agentic Models for Full-Scenario Applications

Large language model agents have advanced rapidly, yet progress remains fragmented across domains, capabilities, task difficulty, and interaction settings. We frame this as full-scenario agentic scaling and present AgentOmnia, a framework coordinating task-space definition, data synthesis, post-training, evaluation, and improvement across To-Consumer (ToC), To-Business (ToB), and To-Employee (ToE) applications. An extensible Domain x Capability x Atomic Difficulty taxonomy aligns these stages and enables fine-grained diagnosis with OmniaBench. AgentOmnia combines bidirectional environment-task synthesis with tool-dependency, program-structured, and solver-based pipelines, constructing 5,018 stateful environments with 255,375 tools and 52,361 tasks. Programs, solvers, and verifiers provide correctness signals, while supervised fine-tuning, online agentic reinforcement learning, and a rollback curriculum support post-training. Evaluation failures translate into Product Requirement Documents (PRDs) for targeted self-evolution. Starting from Qwen3-30B-A3B-Thinking-2507, AgentOmnia raises the pass rate on the OmniaBench challenging subset from 9.16% to 37.11% and the macro-average across OmniaBench, $\tau^2$-Bench, DeepPlanning, and VitaBench from 22.86% to 41.69%. Under a unified protocol,it leads the evaluated agentic post-trained baselines on OmniaBench and retains the highest four-benchmark macro-average. It also surpasses Qwen3-235B-A22B-Thinking-2507 on all four benchmarks and exceeds Qwen3.5-35B-A3B on the macro-average. Gains span three application splits, ten capability dimensions, eight atomic-difficulty factors, and 76 of 90 level-1 domains, indicating broad rather than category-specific improvement. A one-round study provides initial evidence for PRD-guided self-evolution, motivating validation at larger scales and in industrial settings.

Enhancing Memory Efficiency in Large Language Model Training Through Chronos-aware Pipeline Parallelism

Larger model sizes and longer sequence lengths have empowered the Large Language Model (LLM) to achieve outstanding performance across various domains. However, this progress brings significant storage capacity challenges for LLM pretraining. High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) is expensive and requires more advanced packaging technologies for capacity expansion, creating an urgent need for memory-efficient scheduling strategies. Yet, prior pipeline parallelism schedules have primarily focused on reducing bubble overhead, often neglecting memory efficiency and lacking compatibility with other memory-efficient strategies. Consequently, these methods struggle to meet the storage demands of storage capacity for next-generation LLM. This work presents ChronosPipe, a Chronos-aware pipeline parallelism for memory-efficient LLM pretraining. The core insight of ChronosPipe is to treat HBM as a fast but small 'cache,' optimizing and exploiting temporal locality within LLM pretraining to enhance HBM utilization. ChronosPipe introduces a pipeline scheduling strategy, Chronos-Pipe, to reduce the extrinsic overhead that disrupts the temporal locality of activations. Additionally, it leverages Chronos-Recomp and Chronos-Offload to efficiently harness the intrinsic temporal locality of activations and weights in Deep Neural Networks. Experiment results show that ChronosPipe can expand the trainable model size by 2.4x while maintaining comparable throughput, achieving 1.5x better than the 1F1B strategy combined with recomputation.

Multi-scale Optimal Transport for Complete Collider Events

Building upon the success of optimal transport metrics defined for single collinear jets, we develop a multi-scale framework that models entire collider events as distributions on the manifold of their constituent jets, which are themselves distributions on the ground space of the calorimeter. This hierarchical structure of optimal transport effectively captures relevant physics at different scales. We demonstrate the versatility of our method in two event classification tasks, which respectively emphasize intra-jet substructure and inter-jet spatial correlations. Our results highlight the relevance of a nested structure of manifolds in the treatment of full collider events, broadening the applicability of optimal transport methods in collider analyses.

Hecaton: Training Large Language Models with Scalable Chiplet Systems

Large Language Models (LLMs) have achieved remarkable success in various fields, but their training and finetuning require massive computation and memory, necessitating parallelism which introduces heavy communication overheads. Driven by advances in packaging, the chiplet architecture emerges as a potential solution, as it can integrate computing power, as well as utilize on-package links with better signal integrity, higher bandwidth, and lower energy consumption. However, most existing chiplet-related works focus on DNN inference. Directly porting them to LLM training introduces significantly large quantities of DRAM access and network-on-package (NoP) overheads which make state-of-the-art chiplet designs fail, highlighting a research gap. This work proposes Hecaton, a scalable and cost-effective chiplet system for LLM training. We first provide a chiplet architecture with tailored scheduling that can largely reduce DRAM accesses. We further design an efficient distributed training method that reduces NoP communication complexity and relieves constraints on SRAM capacity and layout. Theoretical analysis shows that the entire system achieves weak scaling: as the workload and hardware resources grow proportionally, the computation-to-communication ratio remains nearly constant. Experiments with various workloads and hardware configurations verify the property, and Hecaton achieves $5.29\times$ performance improvement and $3.46\times$ energy reduction on Llama3.1-405B, compared to the tensor parallelism in Megatron. To the best of our knowledge, we propose the first chiplet architecture specifically used for LLM training or finetuning, with guaranteed performance regardless of the problem scale.

Q-Drug: a Framework to bring Drug Design into Quantum Space using Deep Learning

Optimizing the properties of molecules (materials or drugs) for stronger toughness, lower toxicity, or better bioavailability has been a long-standing challenge. In this context, we propose a molecular optimization framework called Q-Drug (Quantum-inspired optimization algorithm for Drugs) that leverages quantum-inspired algorithms to optimize molecules on discrete binary domain variables. The framework begins by encoding the molecules into binary embeddings using a discrete VAE. The binary embeddings are then used to construct an Ising energy-like objective function, over which the state-of-the-art quantum-inspired optimization algorithm is adopted to find the optima. The binary embeddings corresponding to the optima are decoded to obtain the optimized molecules. We have tested the framework for optimizing drug molecule properties and have found that it outperforms other molecular optimization methods, finding molecules with better properties in 1/20th to 1/10th of the time previously required. The framework can also be deployed directly on various quantum computing equipment, such as laser pulses CIMs, FPGA Ising Machines, and quantum computers based on quantum annealing, among others. Our work demonstrates a new paradigm that leverages the advantages of quantum computing and AI to solve practically useful problems.
