Aug 2026 · Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research)

Abstract

First public release. Reinforcement-learning controller that adaptively partitions Stable Diffusion inference between an edge client and a server, selecting split point, quantization, decoder, and privacy settings per request based on live device and network conditions. The raw prompt and final image stay on-device; only an intermediate tensor is transmitted, protected with differential-privacy noise and structured obfuscation. Contents: PPO controller with joint action selection and training loop Split-computing client and inference server (3-stage pipeline) Differential privacy, structured obfuscation, and server-side reconstruction Adversarial spy model with training and data-collection scripts Configurable performance/quality/privacy parameters Requirements: Python 3.10+, PyTorch, diffusers, transformers. Secrets and endpoints are read from environment variables (HF_TOKEN, SERVER_URL). See README for setup, usage, and constants to calibrate for your hardware.

The impact of agile practices on communication in software development

The study shows that agile practices improve both informal and formal communication, but indicates that, in larger development situations involving multiple external stakeholders, a mismatch of adequate communication mechanisms can sometimes even hinder the communication.

Proof-based general-purpose computing with Magnetar

Zero-knowledge proofs can verify computing results without rerunning workloads or exposing sensitive data. Magnetar helps bring them into the mainstream with support for standard programming languages, major speed gains, and quantum-resistant security. The post Proof-based general-purpose computing with Magnetar appeared first on Microsoft Research.
