摘要
Modern Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) workloads rely on expert parallelism (EP) to achieve high GPU efficiency. State-of-the-art EP communication libraries, such as DeepEP, rely on GPU-initiated RDMA communication. Although performant, they have poor portability across heterogeneous GPU and NIC hardwar...
