The O’Donnell Institute recently launched the AREAD (Advancing Resource-Efficient AI and Smart Data Management) initiative for energy-efficient AI solutions. As AI models and datasets continue to grow, optimizing computational efficiency and data utilization is essential for sustainability and scalability. Resource-efficiency may be achieved by leveraging lightweight AI models, adaptive processing techniques, smart data management, and resource-aware algorithms. The AREAD initiative supports projects in AI model optimization—including model compression, quantization, and lightweight models—as well as intelligent data storage, retrieval, and processing. Targeted application areas include but are not limited to AI-powered IoT, autonomous systems, AR/VR, and AI-driven digital twins.
