Task Class Partitioning for Mobile Computation Offloading
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper introduces algorithms for static task class partitioning in mobile computation offloading (MCO). The objective is to partition a given set of task classes into two sets that are either executed locally by the mobile device (MD) or those classes that are permitted to contend for remote edge server (ES) execution. The goal is to find the task class partition that gives the minimum mean MD power consumption subject to task completion deadlines. The paper generates these partitions for both soft and hard task completion deadlines. Two variations of the problem are considered. The first assumes that the wireless and computational capacities are given and the second generates both capacity assignments subject to an additional resource cost budget constraint. The proposed partitioning algorithms are based on heuristic class ordering methods. The paper introduces two class ordering methods, a simpler one based on a task latency criterion, and an hierarchical version that first sorts and groups classes based on a mean power consumption criterion and then orders the task classes within each group based on a task completion time criterion. A variety of simulation results are presented that demonstrate the excellent performance of the proposed solutions for both given and optimized network resource assignments.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
