The surge of large language model (LLM) applications on personal devices imposes massive, bursty workloads on cloud serving infrastructure. While prefill-decode disaggregation improves throughput and scalability, memory-bound decode instances often suffer from persistent load imbalance, as output lengths are unknown when requests arrive at the cloud. To address this, we propose MAPS, a Memory-Aware Predictive Scheduling framework tailored for disaggregated LLM serving. MAPS performs device-assisted speculative output length prediction overlapped with cloud-side prefilling, incurring negligible latency overhead. To handle generation uncertainty, MAPS applies uncertainty-aware calibration to derive output-length upper bounds with target coverage, enabling safe scheduling decisions. Building on these bounds, MAPS employs a hierarchical global-local scheduling strategy to mitigate inter-decoder queue buildup and intra-decoder head-of-line blocking. Extensive experiments on two real-world workloads and two LLMs show that MAPS significantly outperforms three state-of-the-art systems, reducing average end-to-end latency by 42.6 and tail latency by up to 84.8.
This work proposes Turbo, a first-of-its-kind in-network aggregation system that accelerates long-context inference by offloading query broadcast and attention aggregation to switches and introduces a rolling forward scheme that propagates states to enable cross-stage updates.

Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models are a compelling architecture for scaling model capacity, making them especially attractive for deployment on resource-constrained, single-GPU systems. However, this benefit is difficult to realize because expert parameters dominate memory, and token-level routing is dynamic, unpredictab...
Large language models (LLMs) are moving onto mobile devices for increasingly diverse workloads over text, images, video, and audio. These applications often require long contexts, making the Key-Value (KV) cache a dominant memory bottleneck because it grows linearly with sequence length and is accessed at every decodin...
