A Delta-Aware Orchestration Framework for Scalable Multi-Agent Edge Computing
The Synergistic Collapse occurs when scaling beyond 100 agents causes superlinear performance degradation that individual optimizations cannot prevent. We observe this collapse with 150 cameras in Smart City deployment using MADDPG, where Deadline Satisfaction drops from 78% to 34%, producing approximately $180,000 in annual cost overruns. Prior work has addressed each contributing factor in isolation: exponential action-space growth, computational redundancy among spatially adjacent agents, and task-agnostic hardware scheduling. None has examined how these three factors interact and amplify each other. We present DAOEF (Delta-Aware Orchestration for Edge Federations), a framework that ad...
