The field of edge computing and Internet of Things (IoT) is rapidly evolving, with a focus on optimizing resource allocation, improving energy efficiency, and enhancing task offloading. Researchers are exploring innovative approaches, such as cloud-edge collaboration, knowledge distillation, and generative AI-enhanced multi-agent reinforcement learning, to address the challenges of large-scale IoT networks and edge computing systems. Noteworthy papers in this area include 'Optimizing Multi-Gateway LoRaWAN via Cloud-Edge Collaboration and Knowledge Distillation', which proposes a cloud-edge collaborative resource allocation method, and 'Task Assignment and Exploration Optimization for Low Altitude UAV Rescue via Generative AI Enhanced Multi-agent Reinforcement Learning', which introduces a novel cooperation framework for UAVs and ground-embedded robots. Other significant contributions include the development of progressive, content-aware image compression models and dynamic likelihood-weighted cooperative infotaxis approaches for multi-source search in urban environments.
