Researchers have developed a new abstraction called Inference on Demand (IoD) that exposes split AI inference as a network service through a CAMARA-like API. This system carries split-aware tensor context in-band across the 5G user plane, enabling programmable telco infrastructure to coordinate computation, context, and connectivity for applications. Evaluations on a testbed demonstrated that adaptive split selection can function as a network-facing service, moving beyond simple offloading by making service intent, runtime partitioning, and tensor transport visible to the mobile data plane.

IMPACT Enables network-native AI services by integrating AI inference capabilities directly into telco infrastructure.
