Original abstract

The pervasive integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into the Computing Continuum is driving a shift toward decentralized, real-time processing at the Edge. However, achieving autonomous and efficient Edge-Cloud operations requires overcoming significant challenges in performance sustainability and hardware heterogeneity. This paper investigates optimal execution strategies for AI models within the context of intelligent Edge service management, focusing on two critical tasks for infrastructure observability and smart services: object detection (YOLO family) and image classification (ResNet). These configurations evaluate various model quantization schemes and the utilization of on-device accelerators, specifically the GPU and NPU. Our core objective is to empirically determine the combination that achieves the best trade-off between minimal accuracy degradation and maximal inference speed-up.
