Vulcan: Instance-Optimal Systems Heuristics Through LLM-Driven Search

In brief:

Resource-management tasks in modern operating and distributed systems continue to rely primarily on hand-designed heuristics for tasks such as scheduling, caching, or active queue management.

Why this matters

New research could change how AI systems work.

Potential technical breakthrough.

Designing performant heuristics is an expensive, time-consuming process that we are forced to continuously go through due to the constant flux of hardware, workloads and environments.

Open receipts to verify and go deeper.
