NVIDIA Multi-Process Service (MPS) enables fine-grained GPU sharing by allowing multiple processes to execute concurrently on the same GPU, making it an important mechanism for improving GPU utilization. However, MPS has weak fault resilience: a fault in one process can terminate all co-running processes, limiting its adoption in resilience-critical settings such as multi-tenant GPU clusters. In this work, we design fault-resilient MPS to solve this problem. Our design is guided by insights from a systematic characterization of GPU faults and a deep analysis of their end-to-end processing pipeline. Based on these insights, we design two complementary mechanisms. A fault isolation mechanism for the dominant memory-related faults that can be fully isolated by software intervention in the open GPU driver kernel module. For other faults whose process is within proprietary software, we design a practical mechanism -- fast recovery using virtual memory based GPU-resident state sharing. Our evaluation on different GPUs and workloads shows that these mechanisms can handle corresponding faults effectively with minimal overhead.

Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) is now the dominant method for parameter-efficient fine-tuning of large language models, but achieving a high-quality adapter often requires systematic hyperparameter tuning because LoRA performance is highly sensitive to configuration choices. In practice, this leads to many concurrent LoRA jobs, often spanning heterogeneous tasks in multi-tenant environments. Existing systems largely handle these jobs independently, which both wastes computation on weak candidates and leaves GPUs underutilized. We present ALTO (Adaptive LoRA Tuning and Orchestration), a co-designed training system that accelerates LoRA hyperparameter tuning while enabling efficient cluster sharing across heterogeneous tasks. The central insight behind ALTO is that when multiple tuning jobs run concurrently over a shared frozen backbone, they expose optimization opportunities that single-job designs cannot exploit. Building on this, ALTO monitors loss trajectories to terminate unpromising configurations early, uses fused grouped GEMM together with a new rank-local adapter parallelism to co-locate surviving adapters and reclaim freed GPU capacity, and combines intra-task and inter-task scheduling to improve multi-task placement by leveraging the predictable duration of LoRA jobs. Extensive evaluation shows that ALTO achieves up to $13.8\times$ speedup over state-of-the-art without sacrificing adapter quality.

Diffusion models have emerged as the prevailing approach for text-to-image (T2I) and text-to-video (T2V) generation, yet production platforms must increasingly serve both modalities on shared GPU clusters while meeting stringent latency SLOs. Co-serving such heterogeneous workloads is challenging: T2I and T2V requests exhibit vastly different compute demands, parallelism characteristics, and latency requirements, leading to significant SLO violations in existing serving systems. We present GENSERVE, a co-serving system that leverages the inherent predictability of the diffusion process to optimize serving efficiency. A central insight is that diffusion inference proceeds in discrete, predictable steps and is naturally preemptible at step boundaries, opening a new design space for heterogeneity-aware resource management. GENSERVE introduces step-level resource adaptation through three coordinated mechanisms: intelligent video preemption, elastic sequence parallelism with dynamic batching, and an SLO-aware scheduler that jointly optimizes resource allocation across all concurrent requests. Experimental results show that GENSERVE improves the SLO attainment rate by up to 44% over the strongest baseline across diverse configurations.

Diffusion models have recently achieved remarkable success in generative tasks (e.g., image and video generation), and the demand for high-quality content (e.g., 2K/4K videos) is rapidly increasing across various domains. However, generating ultra-high-resolution videos on existing standard-resolution (e.g., 720p) platforms remains challenging due to the excessive re-training requirements and prohibitively high computational and memory costs. To this end, we introduce SuperGen, an efficient tile-based framework for ultra-high-resolution video generation. SuperGen features a novel training-free algorithmic innovation with tiling to successfully support a wide range of resolutions without additional training efforts while significantly reducing both memory footprint and computational complexity. Moreover, SuperGen incorporates a tile-tailored, adaptive, region-aware caching strategy that accelerates video generation by exploiting redundancy across denoising steps and spatial regions. SuperGen also integrates cache-guided, communication-minimized tile parallelism for enhanced throughput and minimized latency. Evaluations demonstrate that SuperGen harvests the maximum performance gains while achieving high output quality across various benchmarks.
