Climate change, primarily driven by carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, requires accurate forecasting tools to support effective mitigation policies and sustainable development strategies. Existing forecasting approaches typically rely on centralized data collection, which is often restricted by privacy regulations and the distributed nature of emission data across countries and industrial sectors.
arXiv:2608. 12915v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The rapid growth of LLM inference is shifting sustainability concerns from one-time training to continuous serving, where infrastructure decisions shape energy use, carbon emissions, water consumption, and service quality.

We propose OrchNAS, an energy-aware, personalised, federated edge intelligence framework that leverages a Neural Architecture Search Service to automatically design service-adaptive models for heterogeneous edge environments. The framework orchestrates the architecture search process on a server-side NAS service, enabling edge services to derive personalised architectures under device-level energy, computation, and memory constraints.
arXiv:2606. 08314v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The coffee supply chain is one of the most complex agri-food networks, marked by geographically dispersed production, multi-tier coordination, and high sensitivity to quality and freshness.
