Multi-Agent Memory from a Computer Architecture Perspective: Visions and Challenges AheadZhongming Yu, Naicheng Yu, Hejia Zhang et al.
As LLM agents evolve into collaborative multi-agent systems, their memory requirements grow rapidly in complexity. This position paper frames multi-agent memory as a computer architecture problem. We distinguish shared and distributed memory paradigms, propose a three-layer memory hierarchy (I/O, cache, and memory), and identify two critical protocol gaps: cache sharing across agents and structured memory access control. We argue that the most pressing open challenge is multi-agent memory consistency. Our architectural framing provides a foundation for building reliable, scalable multi-agent systems.

Is Depth All You Need? An Exploration of Iterative Reasoning in LLMsZongqian Wu, Tianyu Li, Baoduo Xu et al.
Deep iterative chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning enables LLMs to tackle complex tasks by progressively activating relevant pre-trained knowledge. However, it faces challenges in ensuring continual improvement and determining a stopping criterion. In this paper, we investigate whether the relevant knowledge that contributes directly to solving the given question can be activated from the initial reasoning path, thus circumventing the need for iterative refinement. Our experiments reveal that increasing the diversity of initial reasoning paths can achieve comparable or superior performance, a concept we term \textit{breadth reasoning}. However, existing breadth reasoning approaches, such as self-consistency, offer limited diversity. To address this limitation, we propose a simple yet effective method that enhances reasoning breadth by integrating contextual exploration with reduced sampling randomness. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our approach significantly outperforms deep iterative reasoning. Our code is provided in https://github.com/zongqianwu/breadth.

Support Vector Machines on Noisy Intermediate Scale Quantum ComputersJiaying Yang, Ahsan Javed Awan, Gemma Vall-Llosera
Support vector machine algorithms are considered essential for the implementation of automation in a radio access network. Specifically, they are critical in the prediction of the quality of user experience for video streaming based on device and network-level metrics. Quantum SVM is the quantum analogue of the classical SVM algorithm, which utilizes the properties of quantum computers to speed up the algorithm exponentially. In this work, we derive an optimized preprocessing unit for a quantum SVM that allows classifying any two-dimensional datasets that are linearly separable. We further provide a result readout method of the kernel matrix generation circuit to avoid quantum tomography that, in turn, reduces the quantum circuit depth. We also derive a quantum SVM system based on an optimized HHL quantum circuit with reduced circuit depth.
