Clustered Edge Intelligence: Beyond Just Convergence of Edge Computing and AI

We are moving from an information age to the age of intelligence. A decade, or possibly less than that, data will not be the gold anymore rather the derived intelligence out of the data and the information we posses from the edge of the network. Existing Edge Intelligence research focuses mainly on two directions: using AI for edge resource management and deploying lightweight AI models on edge devices. However, existing edge computing research lacks an intelligence-centric framework in which derived intelligence is treated as a first-class, independently manageable entity that can be described, discovered, observed, shared, reused, and dynamically clustered across heterogeneous edge devices and applications. To address these research gaps, we introduced Clustered Edge Intelligence, a visi
