Edge machine learning involves the development of learning algorithms at the network edge to leverage massive distributed data and computation resources. Among others, the framework of federated edge learning (FEEL) is particularly promising for its data-privacy preservation. FEEL coordinates global model training at a server and local model training at edge devices over wireless links. In this work, we explore the new direction of energy-efficient radio resource management (RRM) for FEEL. To reduce devices energy consumption, we propose energy-efficient strategies for bandwidth allocation and scheduling. They adapt to devices channel states and computation capacities so as to reduce their sum energy consumption while warranting learning performance. In contrast with the traditional rate-maximization designs, the derived optimal policies allocate more bandwidth to those scheduled devices with weaker channels or poorer computation capacities, which are the bottlenecks of synchronized model updates in FEEL. On the other hand, the scheduling priority function derived in closed form gives preferences to devices with better channels and computation capacities. Substantial energy reduction contributed by the proposed strategies is demonstrated in learning experiments.

Edge machine learning involves the deployment of learning algorithms at the network edge to leverage massive distributed data and computation resources to train artificial intelligence (AI) models. Among others, the framework of federated edge learni ng (FEEL) is popular for its data-privacy preservation. FEEL coordinates global model training at an edge server and local model training at edge devices that are connected by wireless links. This work contributes to the energy-efficient implementation of FEEL in wireless networks by designing joint computation-and-communication resource management ($text{C}^2$RM). The design targets the state-of-the-art heterogeneous mobile architecture where parallel computing using both a CPU and a GPU, called heterogeneous computing, can significantly improve both the performance and energy efficiency. To minimize the sum energy consumption of devices, we propose a novel $text{C}^2$RM framework featuring multi-dimensional control including bandwidth allocation, CPU-GPU workload partitioning and speed scaling at each device, and $text{C}^2$ time division for each link. The key component of the framework is a set of equilibriums in energy rates with respect to different control variables that are proved to exist among devices or between processing units at each device. The results are applied to designing efficient algorithms for computing the optimal $text{C}^2$RM policies faster than the standard optimization tools. Based on the equilibriums, we further design energy-efficient schemes for device scheduling and greedy spectrum sharing that scavenges spectrum holes resulting from heterogeneous $text{C}^2$ time divisions among devices. Using a real dataset, experiments are conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of $text{C}^2$RM on improving the energy efficiency of a FEEL system.
In this article, we consider the problem of relay assisted computation offloading (RACO), in which user A aims to share the results of computational tasks with another user B through wireless exchange over a relay platform equipped with mobile edge c omputing capabilities, referred to as a mobile edge relay server (MERS). To support the computation offloading, we propose a hybrid relaying (HR) approach employing two orthogonal frequency bands, where the amplify-and-forward scheme is used in one band to exchange computational results, while the decode-and-forward scheme is used in the other band to transfer the unprocessed tasks. The motivation behind the proposed HR scheme for RACO is to adapt the allocation of computing and communication resources both to dynamic user requirements and to diverse computational tasks. Within this framework, we seek to minimize the weighted sum of the execution delay and the energy consumption in the RACO system by jointly optimizing the computation offloading ratio, the bandwidth allocation, the processor speeds, as well as the transmit power levels of both user $A$ and the MERS, under practical constraints on the available computing and communication resources. The resultant problem is formulated as a non-differentiable and nonconvex optimization program with highly coupled constraints. By adopting a series of transformations and introducing auxiliary variables, we first convert this problem into a more tractable yet equivalent form. We then develop an efficient iterative algorithm for its solution based on the concave-convex procedure. By exploiting the special structure of this problem, we also propose a simplified algorithm based on the inexact block coordinate descent method, with reduced computational complexity. Finally, we present numerical results that illustrate the advantages of the proposed algorithms over state-of-the-art benchmark schemes.

This paper studies a federated edge learning system, in which an edge server coordinates a set of edge devices to train a shared machine learning model based on their locally distributed data samples. During the distributed training, we exploit the j oint communication and computation design for improving the system energy efficiency, in which both the communication resource allocation for global ML parameters aggregation and the computation resource allocation for locally updating MLparameters are jointly optimized. In particular, we consider two transmission protocols for edge devices to upload ML parameters to edge server, based on the non orthogonal multiple access and time division multiple access, respectively. Under both protocols, we minimize the total energy consumption at all edge devices over a particular finite training duration subject to a given training accuracy, by jointly optimizing the transmission power and rates at edge devices for uploading MLparameters and their central processing unit frequencies for local update. We propose efficient algorithms to optimally solve the formulated energy minimization problems by using the techniques from convex optimization. Numerical results show that as compared to other benchmark schemes, our proposed joint communication and computation design significantly improves the energy efficiency of the federated edge learning system, by properly balancing the energy tradeoff between communication and computation.
In federated learning (FL), devices contribute to the global training by uploading their local model updates via wireless channels. Due to limited computation and communication resources, device scheduling is crucial to the convergence rate of FL. In this paper, we propose a joint device scheduling and resource allocation policy to maximize the model accuracy within a given total training time budget for latency constrained wireless FL. A lower bound on the reciprocal of the training performance loss, in terms of the number of training rounds and the number of scheduled devices per round, is derived. Based on the bound, the accuracy maximization problem is solved by decoupling it into two sub-problems. First, given the scheduled devices, the optimal bandwidth allocation suggests allocating more bandwidth to the devices with worse channel conditions or weaker computation capabilities. Then, a greedy device scheduling algorithm is introduced, which in each step selects the device consuming the least updating time obtained by the optimal bandwidth allocation, until the lower bound begins to increase, meaning that scheduling more devices will degrade the model accuracy. Experiments show that the proposed policy outperforms state-of-the-art scheduling policies under extensive settings of data distributions and cell radius.
As a promising solution to achieve efficient learning among isolated data owners and solve data privacy issues, federated learning is receiving wide attention. Using the edge server as an intermediary can effectively collect sensor data, perform loca l model training, and upload model parameters for global aggregation. So this paper proposes a new framework for resource allocation in a hierarchical network supported by edge computing. In this framework, we minimize the weighted sum of system cost and learning cost by optimizing bandwidth, computing frequency, power allocation and subcarrier assignment. To solve this challenging mixed-integer non-linear problem, we first decouple the bandwidth optimization problem(P1) from the whole problem and obtain a closed-form solution. The remaining computational frequency, power, and subcarrier joint optimization problem(P2) can be further decomposed into two sub-problems: latency and computational frequency optimization problem(P3) and transmission power and subcarrier optimization problem(P4). P3 is a convex optimization problem that is easy to solve. In the joint optimization problem(P4), the optimal power under each subcarrier selection can be obtained first through the successive convex approximation(SCA) algorithm. Substituting the optimal power value obtained back to P4, the subproblem can be regarded as an assignment problem, so the Hungarian algorithm can be effectively used to solve it. The solution of problem P2 is accomplished by solving P3 and P4 iteratively. To verify the performance of the algorithm, we compare the proposed algorithm with five algorithms; namely Equal bandwidth allocation, Learning cost guaranteed, Greedy subcarrier allocation, System cost guaranteed and Time-biased algorithm. Numerical results show the significant performance gain and the robustness of the proposed algorithm in the face of parameter changes.
