Zero Touch Predictive Orchestration: Automated Time-Series Forecasting for Cloud-Edge Continuum Cold Start

A preprint proposes a fully automated time-series prediction architecture for Cloud-Edge Continuum (CEC) orchestration, addressing the cold-start problem where newly discovered edge nodes lack historical data for localized model training. The system combines a lightweight Resource Exposer for telemetry collection with a novel data-mixing methodology that merges sparse local samples with TimeTrack, a publicly released high-resolution dataset, then feeds the result through a Neural Architecture Search engine to auto-generate baseline models. Experiments show the approach improves MSE, MAE, and MAPE and accelerates convergence versus training on local data alone or generic datasets.
