CoMIC: Collaborative Memory and Insights Circulation for Long-Horizon LLM Agents in Cloud-Edge Systems

arXiv:2606. 00756v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deploying lightweight Large Language Model (LLM) agents on edge servers can reduce latency and move agentic services closer to users, but resource-constrained edge models often struggle with long-horizon tasks that require persistent memory, subgoal tracking, and reflection.

ABot-AgentOS: A General Robotic Agent OS with Lifelong Multi-modal Memory

arXiv:2607. 10350v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent VLM and VLA systems have improved robotic perception and action prediction, yet long-horizon embodied agents still require a general runtime layer for reasoning, memory, tool use, verification, and cross-embodiment execution.

Where Should Agents Live? Energy-Memory Characterization of Agentic AI for the Edge-Cloud Continuum

The paper introduces agentic-eCAL, an extension of the Energy Cost of AI Lifecycle metric to evaluate multi‑agent AI workflows across the edge‑cloud continuum. By combining a two‑rate energy model with OSI‑layer transport analysis, the authors quantify that inter‑agent text transfer accounts for only 0.25% of total workflow energy, highlighting that the main energy cost lies in additional inference and context processing triggered by communication. The study uses extensive GPU benchmarks on NVIDIA A100/H100 with 16 open‑weight models and 8 orchestration topologies to validate the metric and explore placement implications.

ProcAgent: An Agentic Framework for Procedural Task Guidance on Edge with Human-in-the-Loop

arXiv:2607. 24770v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Procedural tasks such as furniture assembly and home repair impose substantial cognitive demands because users must interpret instructions, track task progress, reason about spatial state, and recover from errors while performing physical actions.
