The paper investigates the effectiveness of sharing data or models across nodes in large-scale dynamic federated learning, focusing on achieving efficient transmission and fast knowledge transfer. The authors explore different strategies for exchanging raw data, synthetic data, or partial model updates among devices, examining their implications for foundational models. By analyzing various scenarios with different data distributions and dynamic device and network connections, the study provides key insights into optimal data and model exchange mechanisms. These findings highlight the importance of efficient knowledge transfer in federated learning, with potential efficiency differences of up to 9.08%.
