TRACE: Tackling Real-World Resource Assignment Problems via Agentic Heuristic Design

Excerpt

arXiv:2610.01887v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Dynamic resource assignment, the real-time allocation of task streams to heterogeneous processing nodes, is the backbone of modern computing infrastructure. While learning-based schedulers excel in research, industrial deployments still rely on hand-written rules that operators can read, audit, and execute within tight latency budgets. LLM-based Automatic Heuristic Design (AHD) promises to automate writing such rules. However, existing AHD framew
