vLLM is a high-performance library designed to facilitate efficient inference and serving of Large Language Models (LLMs). Originally developed in the Sky Computing Lab at UC Berkeley, vLLM has evolved into a community-driven project with contributions from both academia and industry. It offers state-of-the-art serving throughput by efficiently managing attention key and value memory through its PagedAttention mechanism. It supports continuous batching of incoming requests and utilizes optimized CUDA kernels, including integration with FlashAttention and FlashInfer, to enhance model execution speed. Additionally, vLLM provides quantization support for GPTQ, AWQ, INT4, INT8, and FP8, as well as speculative decoding capabilities. Users benefit from seamless integration with popular Hugging Face models, support for various decoding algorithms such as parallel sampling and beam search, and compatibility with NVIDIA GPUs, AMD CPUs and GPUs, Intel CPUs, and more.

Muse Spark Open is an open-weight, natively multimodal language model for developers and organizations building AI applications, coding systems, and agentic workflows. The released model has 816 billion total parameters, 42 billion active parameters, and a 1-million-token context window. Teams can download the model weights, run inference through supported engines such as vLLM, SGLang, TensorRT-LLM, Hugging Face Transformers, Apple MLX, llama.cpp, or Unsloth, and customize the model using PyTorch. It supports long-context reasoning, software engineering, coding, tool use, and multimodal inputs. Deployment options include cloud inference through listed API providers or self-hosting on compatible GPU systems; Meta documents a desktop setup using two Apple M5 Ultra Mac Studio computers. The model is released under the Muse Model License with limited commercial terms.
