Dynamic Scheduling for Federated Edge Learning with Streaming Data
share
In this work, we consider a Federated Edge Learning (FEEL) system where training data are randomly generated over time at a set of distributed edge devices with long-term energy constraints. Due to limited communication resources and latency requirements, only a subset of devices is scheduled for participating in the local training process in every iteration. We formulate a stochastic network optimization problem for designing a dynamic scheduling policy that maximizes the time-average data importance from scheduled user sets subject to energy consumption and latency constraints. Our proposed algorithm based on the Lyapunov optimization framework outperforms alternative methods without considering time-varying data importance, especially when the generation of training data shows strong temporal correlation.
