- Model-serving systems expose machine learning (ML) models to applications programmatically via a high-level API. Cloud platforms use these systems to mask the complexities of optimally managing resources and servicing inference requests across multiple applications. Model serving at the edge is now also becoming increasingly important to support inference workloads with tight latency requirements. However, edge model serving differs substantially from cloud model serving in its latency, energy, and accuracy constraints: these systems must support multiple applications with widely different latency and accuracy requirements on embedded edge accelerators with limited computational and energy resources. To address the problem, this paper presents Dělen,1 a flexible and adaptive model-serving system for multi-tenant edge AI. Dělen exposes a high-level API that enables individual edge applications to specify a bound at runtime on the latency, accuracy, or energy of their inference requests. We efficiently implement Dělen using conditional execution in multi-exit deep neural networks (DNNs), which enables granular control over inference requests, and evaluate it on a resource-constrained Jetson Nano edge accelerator. We evaluate Dělen flexibility by implementing state-of-the-art adaptation policies using Dělen's API, and evaluate its adaptability under different workload dynamics and goals when running single and multiple applications.

- AimUterus transplantation (UTx) is an emerging treatment option for women with uterine factor infertility (UFI) or the absence of a functional uterus. This is the study protocol for the first human UTx clinical trial in Australia.Materials and MethodsThis protocol outlines the approved training program used to plan, diagnose, screen, and treat patients who may be eligible for UTx using living and deceased donors. This multi-site clinical research study includes three tertiary hospital sites within New South Wales (NSW), Australia - Prince of Wales, Royal Hospital for Women and Westmead Hospitals. Our UTx protocol is based on that used by our collaborative partner, the inaugural UTx team in Gothenburg, Sweden. The Swedish UTx team provides ongoing preceptorship for the Australian UTx team. Ethics approval for six UTx procedures using living or deceased donors (Western Sydney Local Health District Human Research Ethics Committee: 2019/ETH138038) was granted in 2020.ResultsResults from surgeries and live births will be published. Data will be prospectively entered into the registry of the International Society of Uterus Transplantation (ISUTx), a sub-section of The Transplantation Society (TTS). Trial Id: ACTRN12622000917730.DiscussionA multidisciplinary research team has been formed between three tertiary hospitals in Sydney - The Royal Hospital for Women, Prince of Wales and Westmead Hospitals; and with the Swedish UTx, University of Gothenburg. The Swedish team pioneered animal and human UTx studies since 1998, including publishing the first live birth after UTx. (1) This Australian trial commenced in January 2023.ConclusionUterus transplantation gives women with UFI the opportunity to be gestational and genetic mothers. It is a complex procedure for both the donor and recipient, with medical and surgical risks. An extensive multidisciplinary approach is required to optimise patient safety and graft outcomes. This protocol outlines our Australian UTx team strategy for screening, recruitment, surgical approach, and clinical management of UTx recipients and donors.
