Title
Task Scheduling with Optimized Transmission Time in Collaborative Cloud-Edge Learning
Abstract
Deep learning has been applied in many recent advanced applications in the field of transportation, finance and medicine. These applications require significant computation resources and large-scale training samples. Cloud becomes a natural choice for conducting these learning tasks due to its abundant resources. However, deeper penetration of deep learning techniques in mission critical applications, like driverless car, calls for stricter time requirement to guarantee its interaction and larger amount of dataset for training to guarantee its accuracy, which cannot be easily satisfied by the cloud and makes the network transmission become the bottleneck. Edge learning emerges to be a promising direction to reduce data transmission time by processing and compressing the raw data at the edge of the network, while brings the concern of accuracy reduction at the meantime. To balance this tradeoff under cloud-edge architecture, we study a task scheduling problem for reducing weighted transmission time which takes learning accuracy into consideration. We also propose efficient scheduling algorithms which are able to achieve up to 50% reduction in makespan with extensive trace-driven simulations.
