Network-Aware Forecasting on Wireless Access Points

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

The paper investigates how enterprise wireless access points (APs) can run predictive machine learning models while sharing CPU and memory with essential networking tasks. It introduces the concept of network‑aware deployability, requiring models to qualify for the AP’s hardware and to be validated under real packet‑service constraints. Benchmarks reveal that models can run 6–19× slower and use up to 22% more memory on an AP compared to a Raspberry Pi 5, and that even similarly sized forecasting models can differ by 19× in latency, leading to significant increases in round‑trip time and throughput degradation under load.

Hidden in Rounds: Predicting the Time Cost of 802.11 Contention in Federated Learning

The paper investigates how the time cost of 802.11 contention affects federated learning. Using ns-3 simulations, the authors measure frame-delivery ratios and saturation throughput across various client densities and offered loads, then employ a FedAvg trainer that uses these ratios to estimate communication time. Across 720 runs with diverse datasets, partitions, densities, loads, and seeds, all models reached target accuracy within the round budget, with communication time-to-target increasing significantly as client density rose. The study also compares uniform and persistent heterogeneous participation, finding no statistically significant accuracy gap, though confidence intervals are wide. The results are specific to the evaluated configurations and do not generalize to all convergence or fairness scenarios.
