<![CDATA[This research focuses on the development and evaluation of an Adaptive Edge-AI framework designed to optimize real-time data processing and decision-making in resource-constrained environments, specifically within smart city infrastructures. The primary problem addressed is the challenge of minimizing latency, reducing energy consumption, and ensuring the reliability of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) when using Internet of Things (IoT) devices. The objective of the study is to assess the effectiveness of this framework in real-world smart city applications such as traffic monitoring, environmental sensing, and smart utilities management. The proposed method integrates lightweight AI models, edge computing, and adaptive resource management techniques, including Federated Learning and Neural Architecture Search, to ensure optimal performance while addressing hardware constraints. The main findings reveal that the framework significantly improves real-time inference speed, reduces energy consumption of IoT devices, and enhances CPS reliability by minimizing communication delays and ensuring continuous system operation despite network disruptions. The application of this framework to smart transportation and urban utilities further demonstrates its potential to optimize city management processes. The study concludes that the Adaptive Edge-AI framework offers a promising solution for smart cities, enhancing operational efficiency, sustainability, and resilience. It is recommended for integration into smart city infrastructures to enable better resource management and decision-making in real-time applications.]]>
