1. **[Evaluating Modern GPU Interconnect: PCIe, NVLink, NV-SLI, NVSwitch and GPUDirect](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/li-2019-evaluating-modern-gpu-interconnect-pcie/)** *(2019 · 372 citations)* Multi-GPU computing is now essential for deep learning, big data and large-scale simulation. However, practitioners have little solid knowledge of how GPUs are wired together inside and across servers, or how much that wiring affects real workloads. The authors run a systematic empirical study of modern GPU…
2. **[Beyond Chain-of-Thought: A Survey of Chain-of-X Paradigms for LLMs](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/xia-2025-beyond-chain-thought-survey-chain/)** *(2025 · 19 citations)* Chain-of-Thought (CoT) prompting showed that LLMs reason better when they write out intermediate steps before giving an answer.
3. **[TaoType: Predicting Fine-Grained Typing Intent for Faster Search](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/yu-2026-taotype-predicting-fine-grained-typing/)** *(2026 · 1 citation)* In mobile shopping search, users often pause between finishing a query and actually pressing "search". This paper, from Alibaba's Taobao & Tmall Group, exploits that gap. After every keystroke, TaoType estimates whether the user will keep typing, submit the query, or pick a dropdown suggestion. When submission looks…
4. **[Know Your Place: Diagnosing Implicit Social Adaptation Failures in Chinese Large Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/tian-2026-know-your-place-diagnosing-implicit/)** *(2026)* The paper asks whether Chinese LLMs adapt their conversational style to social signals that are only implied in a user's message, rather than stated in an instruction.
