A framework for adaptive model partitioning and distributed inference on edge devices.

• Edge device simulation using Docker containers
• Model performance evaluation
• Resource usage monitoring
• Adaptive model optimization

• Python 3.10+
• Docker
• PyTorch 2.1.2+
• torchvision 0.16.2+

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/adaptive-edge-computing-framework.git
cd adaptive-edge-computing-framework

# Create virtual environment
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate  # Linux/Mac
# or
.venv\Scripts\activate  # Windows

# Install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

Run different evaluation scenarios:

make evaluate

make evaluate-scale-up

make evaluate-scale-dow

Each evaluation will:

1. Create Docker containers simulating edge devices
2. Install necessary dependencies
3. Run distributed inference tests
4. Collect comprehensive performance metrics

View the results:

make show-results

The framework evaluates model performance under different configurations:

• Baseline: 2 cores, 2GB memory
• Distributed: 3 nodes
  • Node 1: 1.0 core, 1GB (high)
  • Node 2: 0.6 core, 512MB (medium)
  • Node 3: 0.4 core, 512MB (low)
• Results:

  Latency reduction: 78.35%
  Throughput improvement: 414.73%
  Scheduling overhead: 10.00ms
  

• Baseline: 3 cores, 3GB memory
• Distributed: 4 nodes
  • Node 1: 1.0 core, 1GB
  • Node 2: 1.0 core, 1GB
  • Node 3: 0.6 core, 512MB
  • Node 4: 0.4 core, 512MB
• Results:

  Latency reduction: 77.17%
  Throughput improvement: 422.32%
  Scheduling overhead: 10.00ms
  

• Baseline: 1 core, 1GB memory
• Distributed: 2 nodes
  • Node 1: 1.0 core, 1GB
  • Node 2: 0.6 core, 512MB
• Results:

  Latency reduction: 78.33%
  Throughput improvement: 425.73%
  Scheduling overhead: 10.00ms
  

1. Performance Improvement

   • Consistent latency reduction (~78%) across configurations
   • Significant throughput improvement (>400%)
   • Stable scheduling overhead (10ms)

2. Scalability

   • Effective resource utilization in all configurations
   • Linear performance scaling with added nodes
   • Minimal overhead increase with node count

3. Resource Efficiency

   • Optimal task distribution across nodes
   • Balanced resource utilization
   • Adaptive load balancing
