New agentic platform Coco aids hardware-software co-design for ML accelerators

Researchers have developed Coco, an agentic platform designed to assist in the complex process of hardware-software co-design for machine learning accelerators. This system addresses the challenge of reasoning about non-existent systems by grounding agents in a SQL-based datastore of simulation sweeps, rather than relying on pre-trained LLM knowledge. Coco utilizes a library of tools with typed APIs and agents that automate recurring analysis workflows, such as iso-execution analysis, to accelerate the co-design lifecycle and derive insights more efficiently.

IMPACT Accelerates the development of specialized hardware for AI models by streamlining the co-design process.

    Coco: An Agentic Copilot for the Hardware--Software Co-Design Lifecycle

    arXiv:2610.02376v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Co-designing ML models and the accelerators that run them is an unusual reasoning task: architects must draw confident, high-stakes conclusions about systems that do not yet exist, and the pace of both model evolution and hardware…
