LASER: Language Model Regression for Semi-Structured Workflow Resource and Runtime Estimation

arXiv CS.AI

ArXi:2512.19701v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Accurate prediction of resource consumption and runtime for cloud workflow jobs is critical for scheduling efficiency, yet remains challenging due to the semi-structured nature of job configurations -- comprising shell commands, tool-specific parameters, dependency graphs, and hierarchical metadata. Traditional ML approaches require brittle feature engineering to flatten this rich information into fixed-size vectors, losing critical semantic context.
