Load balancing across parallel servers is an important class of congestion control problems that arises in service systems. An effective load balancer relies heavily on accurate, real-time congestion information to make routing decisions.…

Traffic load-balancing in datacenters alleviates hot spots and improves network utilization. In this paper, a stable in-network load-balancing algorithm is developed in the setting of software-defined networking. A control plane configures…

Load balancing is among the basic primitives in distributed computing. In this paper, we consider this problem when executed locally on a network with nodes prone to failures. We show that there exist lightweight network topologies that are…

We consider a large-scale service system where incoming tasks have to be instantaneously dispatched to one out of many parallel server pools. The user-perceived performance degrades with the number of concurrent tasks and the dispatcher…

Deploying data- and computation-intensive applications such as large-scale AI into heterogeneous dispersed computing networks can significantly enhance application performance by mitigating bottlenecks caused by limited network resources,…

Low-power and lossy networks (LLNs) enable diverse applications integrating many resource-constrained embedded devices, often requiring interconnectivity with existing TCP/IP networks as part of the Internet of Things. But TCP has received…

We present HyperLoader, a simple approach that combines different parameter-efficient fine-tuning methods in a multi-task setting. To achieve this goal, our model uses a hypernetwork to generate the weights of these modules based on the…

Edge intelligence (EI) allows resource-constrained edge devices (EDs) to offload computation-intensive AI tasks (e.g., visual object detection) to edge servers (ESs) for fast execution. However, transmitting high-volume raw task data (e.g.,…

This paper presents Block, a distributed scheduling framework designed to optimize load balancing and auto-provisioning across instances in large language model serving frameworks by leveraging contextual information from incoming requests.…

We propose a configuration scheme for a load-balancing Clos-network packet switch that has split central modules and buffers in between the split modules. Our split-central-buffered Load-Balancing Clos-network (LBC) switch is cell based.…

Load-balancing among the threads of a GPU for graph analytics workloads is difficult because of the irregular nature of graph applications and the high variability in vertex degrees, particularly in power-law graphs. We describe a novel…

The shift towards high-bandwidth networks driven by AI workloads in data centers and HPC clusters has unintentionally aggravated network latency, adversely affecting the performance of communication-intensive HPC applications. As…

This paper presents an energy-efficient downlink cell-free massive multiple-input multiple-output (CF-mMIMO) integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) network that serves ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) users while…

The innovative services empowered by the Internet of Things (IoT) require a seamless and reliable wireless infrastructure that enables communications within heterogeneous and dynamic low-power and lossy networks (LLNs). The Routing Protocol…

LAPS identifies and disaggregates requests with different prompt lengths in LLM serving to reduce TTFT latency. While recent systems have decoupled the prefill and decode stages to improve throughput, they still rely on unified scheduling…

The cloud datacenter has numerous hosts as well as application requests where resources are dynamic. The demands placed on the resource allocation are diverse. These factors could lead to load imbalances, which affect scheduling efficiency…

With the increasing popularity of Cloud computing and Mobile computing, individuals, enterprises and research centers have started outsourcing their IT and computational needs to on-demand cloud services. Recently geographical load…

We consider the load balancing problem in large-scale heterogeneous systems with multiple dispatchers. We introduce a general framework called Local-Estimation-Driven (LED). Under this framework, each dispatcher keeps local (possibly…

L7 load balancers are a fundamental building block in microservices as they enable fine-grained traffic distribution. Compared to monolithic applications, microservices demand higher performance and stricter isolation from load balancers.…

Data-parallel (DP) load balancing has emerged as a first-order bottleneck in large-scale LLM serving. When a model is sharded across devices via tensor parallelism (TP) or expert parallelism (EP) and replicated across many DP workers, every…
