arXiv:2603. 16867v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) with chain-of-thought reasoning achieve state-of-the-art performance across complex problem-solving tasks, but their verbose reasoning traces and large context requirements make them impractical for edge deployment.

The paper introduces COMLLM, a generative framework that combines Group Relative Policy Optimization with a Look‑Ahead Collaborative Simulation to enable multi‑turn reasoning for task offloading in Mobile Edge Computing. By performing multi‑step Monte Carlo rollouts that jointly model server queue dynamics, COMLLM incorporates long‑term system evolution into its reward design, achieving near‑optimal latency and improved load‑balancing fairness. The framework demonstrates zero‑shot scalability to larger network topologies, outperforming supervised fine‑tuning, deep reinforcement learning, and heuristic baselines without requiring retraining.

DART-FL is a multitask federated learning framework designed for edge devices that must balance online inference and model training under limited resources. It dynamically allocates resources between inference and training based on current inference backlog and service capacity, then distributes remaining training capacity among tasks using a queue‑aware scheduler that adjusts loss weights. Experiments on image classification datasets with synthetic and real workloads show that DART‑FL adapts to bursty inference demand, improving accuracy for high‑demand tasks while preserving overall multitask performance.

arXiv:2607. 20481v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Local-cloud collaboration is a practical way to deploy large language models under resource constraints, but existing methods often rely on trained routers or collaboration-aware finetuning that tie routing behavior to a particular operating regime.
