System and method for energy-aware distributed edge-cloud homomorphic compression using adaptive neural networks

Abstract

A distributed system and method for compressing and restoring data across edge computing devices and cloud infrastructure is disclosed. The system dynamically adjusts compression based on available computing resources, network conditions, and now energy constraints. Edge devices monitor power consumption and battery levels, optimizing compression parameters to extend battery life while maintaining data quality. A workload scheduler prioritizes tasks based on energy availability, offloading intensive processing to cloud infrastructure when necessary. The system utilizes an energy-aware coordination layer to balance workloads across multiple devices, ensuring efficient data flow and long-term operational stability. Homomorphic operations allow secure distributed processing on compressed data, while an adaptive neural upsampler enhances reconstructed outputs. By integrating energy optimization, the system improves performance and longevity of edge devices in power-limited environments.
