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.
arXiv:2604. 26508v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Deploying Vision-Language Models (VLMs) on edge devices remains challenging due to their substantial computational and memory demands, which exceed the capabilities of resource-constrained embedded platforms.

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.
