Abstract: Federated learning (FL) can improve the privacy-preserving issue of users' IoT devices, in which users complete the local training and transfer the updated model data to the central server for a global update. Due to high latency, the central server-based FL may suffer from huge energy loss at local user devices. MEC-based FL can improve the model accuracy and energy consumption at user devices via edge server-based task execution. Along with FL, blockchain can improve data security via permission-based access. Existing works explored only single type of IoT task without any appropriate resource scheduling for multiple tasks with different preferences, FL, and blockchain operations. This paper provides a merit-based resource scheduling scheme for different tasks with preferences, blockchain, and FL operations by checking resources, deadlines, delays, and resource costs. The simulation results verify that 45% running time and 53% cost gain is achieved in proposed scheme over the baseline schemes.
