Definition
Open research stack for running large language models across heterogeneous peers with sharded weights and low-bandwidth serving.
Key Points
- Legitimate distributed-iot-inference pattern cited alongside misuse scenarios in IoT replication research.
- Shares engineering concerns (latency, partial weights) with ssd-streamed-moe-inference at different scales.
