Due to the proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) and application/user demands that challenge communication and computation, edge computing has emerged as the paradigm to bring computing resources closer to users. In this paper, we present , an analytical model for the migration of services (service offloading) from the cloud to the edge, in order to minimize the completion time of computational tasks offloaded by user devices and improve the utilization of resources. We also empirically investigate the impact of reusing the results of previously executed tasks for the execution of newly received tasks (computation reuse) and propose an adaptive task offloading scheme between edge and cloud. Our evaluation results show that achieves up to 35% and 97% (when coupled with computation reuse) lower task completion times than cases where tasks are executed exclusively at the edge or the cloud.

Introduction: The transition to electric vehicles (EVs) has highlighted the need for efficient diagnostic methods to assess the state of health (SoH) of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) at the end of their life cycle. Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) offers a non-invasive technique for determining battery degradation. However, automating this process in industrial settings remains a challenge.

- Brain tumors (BT), both benign and malignant, pose a substantial impact on human health and need precise and early detection for successful treatment. Analysing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) image is a common method for BT diagnosis and segmentation, yet misdiagnoses yield effective medical responses, impacting patient survival rates. Recent technological advancements have popularized deep learning-based medical image analysis, leveraging transfer learning to reuse pre-trained models for various applications.

General matrix multiplication (GEMM) in machine learning involves massive computation and data movement, which restricts its deployment on resource-constrained devices. Although data reuse can reduce data movement during GEMM processing, current approaches fail to fully exploit its potential. This work introduces a sparse GEMM accelerator with a weight-and-output stationary (WOS) dataflow and a distributed buffer architecture.

Biomimetics aims to learn from living systems to develop innovative technical artefacts. As it transcends disciplinary boundaries and needs to integrate both biological and technological knowledge, a domain ontology for biomimetics would be highly desirable. So far, several terminological resources have been designed to support the biomimetic development process.

Vertical Federated Learning (VFL) is a promising category of Federated Learning that enables collaborative model training among distributed parties with data privacy protection. Due to its unique training architecture, a key challenge of VFL is high communication cost due to transmitting intermediate results between the Active Party and Passive Parties. Current communication-efficient VFL methods rely on using stale results without meticulous selection, which can impair model accuracy, particularly in noisy data environments.
