Edge computing brings unique challenges as the resources on the edge are highly diverse in capabilities and capacities, and highly distributed across many users and the physical world. Existing distributed computing frameworks cannot adequately handle this level of heterogeneity and distribution.

The paper introduces a dynamic framework for partitioning neural network layers across a heterogeneous edge‑cloud continuum, adapting to runtime changes in network conditions and device capabilities. It profiles models at startup, measures link quality, and periodically re‑evaluates the partitioning to optimize performance. Experiments on a Raspberry Pi, laptop, and desktop using VGG16, AlexNet, and MobileNetV2 demonstrate energy savings of 27.09–35.82% and latency reductions of 6.34–22.92% over static partitioning.
arXiv:2506. 03168v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Amid the challenges posed by global population growth and climate change, traditional agricultural Internet of Things (IoT) systems is currently undergoing a significant digital transformation to facilitate efficient big data processing.
The article outlines a vision and recent progress toward a decentralized system that learns from real‑time building data, treating the building itself as a data center to enhance privacy and reduce dependence on external clouds. It introduces a lightweight, Kubernetes‑like orchestration framework for deploying AI services on low‑power microcontrollers, such as those in the Arduino ecosystem, enabling in‑situ learning on sensors. The work also presents experimental results for new online learning algorithms and proposes a cloud‑fog‑edge architecture using KOptim and FIWARE components.

The paper introduces TopoCompress, a token compression framework designed for distributed edge Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) inference. It jointly optimizes token compression, expert deployment, GPU-CPU residency, and routing to reduce cross-server communication and resource usage. The method uses a two-timescale alternating optimization, with an online loop compressing low-importance tokens and an offline loop updating expert placement based on accumulated traffic.
arXiv:2607. 13093v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: On-device LLM inference faces a trilemma of response latency, limited hardware resources and user privacy.
Diffusion language models (DLMs) provide a non‑autoregressive approach for mobile edge agentic AI, refining tokens through iterative denoising instead of left‑to‑right decoding. They can update multiple uncertain tokens in parallel and use bidirectional context, allowing flexible quality‑latency trade‑offs and early exits that reduce response delay and communication overhead. The survey reviews DLM foundations, resource‑efficient architectures, training and inference acceleration, compression, deployment strategies, and discusses open issues such as long‑context management, split inference, and trustworthy execution.
