A new research paper explores the challenges of deploying predictive machine learning models on enterprise wireless access points (APs). The study highlights that resource contention between ML inference and essential network services can significantly degrade model performance and network stability. Benchmarks reveal that models running on APs can be substantially slower and consume more memory than on proxy hardware like Raspberry Pi 5, with variations of up to 19x in latency and 22% in memory usage. The research emphasizes the need for 'network-aware deployability' to ensure models function effectively without compromising network services, especially when handling multiple streams under load.
