Collaborative Inference and Learning between Edge SLMs and Cloud LLMs: A Survey of Algorithms, Execution, and Open Challenges

As large language models (LLMs) evolve, deploying them solely in the cloud or compressing them for edge devices is increasingly inadequate due to latency, privacy, cost, and personalization concerns. This survey examines a collaborative paradigm in which cloud-based LLMs and edge...
