Generative AI for IoT and Edge Computing: Enhancing Intelligent Edge Systems
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
The rapid expansion of the Internet of Things (IoT) has resulted in massive volumes of data being generated by interconnected devices across various domains. Traditional cloud-centric architectures often struggle with issues such as high latency, bandwidth constraints, and data privacy risks when processing this data. Edge computing has emerged as an effective solution by enabling data processing closer to the data source, thereby improving response time and reducing network dependency. In recent years, Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) has gained significant attention for its ability to generate insights, predictions, and adaptive responses from complex and dynamic datasets. This paper examines the integration of Generative AI with IoT and edge computing to enhance intelligent edge systems capable of real-time analytics and autonomous decision-making. It explores architectural frameworks, potential applications in areas such as smart cities, healthcare, industrial automation, and autonomous systems, as well as the advantages of improved efficiency, scalability, and privacy preservation. Additionally, the paper discusses the technical challenges associated with deploying generative models at the edge, including resource constraints, model optimization, security, and data management. Finally, it outlines future research directions aimed at developing scalable, secure, and energy-efficient GenAI-enabled edge computing ecosystems.
